• Engine: 6.7L Power Stroke® Turbo Diesel V8
• Horsepower: 475 horsepower
• Torque: 1,050 lb-ft

With a torque output of more than 1,000 lb-ft, you can expect this truck to be a hard worker. It’s engine pairs with a TorqShift 10-speed SelectShift® automatic transmission with extra upper gears to help you balance out all that power.

You can cruise along with optimized performance while taking full advantage of the automatic transmission. Then, when you want a bit more control over your drive, switch into the limited manual mode and use the SelectShift® feature to change gears on-command.

Towing and Payload Specs for the Ford F-450
