UNRIVALED POWER EQUALS UNPRECEDENTED POTENTIAL
The Limited earns its title as the most powerful Super Duty truck ever. Under the hood, you'll find a remarkable 6.7-liter High-Output Power Stroke V8 Turbo Diesel engine. It delivers unparalleled towing and hauling performance, setting new standards in the industry. The Limited generates a massive 500 horsepower and a best-in-class torque of 1,200 lb.-ft. Depending on the specific edition of the Limited, you'll unlock the highest towing potential ever available with this exclusive engine. The Regular Cab F-450 Limited boasts a maximum towing capacity of 40,000 pounds, while the Regular Cab F-250 Limited still offers up to 23,000 pounds of towing capacity with the 6.7-liter turbo diesel engine.
