2. Huge hauling capacity
If you’re planning to haul heavy loads in your truck bed, the 2022 Ford F-550 can carry just about anything you want. The truck offers an estimated payload capacity of 12,750 pounds when properly equipped. That basically means you can haul a male African bush elephant in the bed of your truck.
3. Two powerful engine choices
The 2022 Ford F-550 is available with one of two powerful engine options. First, there's the 7.3L, gas-powered V8 with 350 horsepower and 468 lb-ft of torque. The second option is the 6.7L, diesel-powered V8 with 330 horsepower and 825 lb-ft of torque. Either option is strong and ready to do the work you need it to do.
4. Three cab styles
If you’re planning to use the 2022 Ford F-550 strictly as a work truck, you might opt for the regular cab, which can comfortably fit three people. However, if you want the truck to double as a family vehicle or a road trip warrior, you’ll want to select the SuperCab or Crew Cab, which can each fit six people comfortably. With various cab styles, you can get a powerful chassis cab in the configuration that works best for you and your needs.
5. Plenty of storage
For a truck that’s mainly focused on hauling and towing, the 2022 Ford F-550 provides a great deal of cargo storage. The Super Cab has 31.6 cubic feet of storage in the cabin, and the Crew Cab has 52.1 cu-ft of available storage for your cargo. The two larger cabin styles include a 60/40 split-folding rear seat that provides an easily accessible spot to store items like a toolbox or a cooler.
