WATCH TO THE END FOR A TEST DRIVE! If you've been looking for the bad boy of F250s then look no further than my personal 2012 Ford F250 Lariat. It's got the Chrome Package as well as a ton of other features & options plus several extras that would set you back thousands. As you can see from the original window sticker above, t's got pretty much every option you can throw at it. My favorite ones are the tailgate step which is REALLY handy on a truck with a lift like this one as well as the backup camera that comes on automatically when you shift into reverse. It makes hooking up to a trailer so easy! Although it looks pretty, t's still just as capable of getting it done off road as ever. The ProComp lift adds about 4" to the stance plus gives the big LT35x12.50R20 tires plenty of clearance. Matching fender flares keep the debris from being slung everywhere plus it has 3.55 limited slip diffs so all four wheel are putting power to the ground. Power is plentiful thanks to the 6.7 Powerstroke diesel that's cranking out 400 horsepower! Although dad and I are RV & diesel truck dealers, his is my personal truck. I've had it around a year now and just do not drive it enough to justify keeping it around. I would have no hesitation to get in it and drive it ANYWHERE. When I tell you this truck is ready to hit the road, 'm not just whistling Dixie...I've put it to the test! Best of all, he original owner paid for an extended Ford warranty that adds to the factory 5yr/100k powertrain coverage! I'm trying to move it quick so I've put a LOW PRICE on it that's THOUSANDS BELOW the book value of nearly $45,000!!! Values RoughTrade-In AverageTrade-In CleanTrade-In CleanRetail

Full Expert Review: 2012 Ford F-250 Super Duty What's New for 2012

The entire Ford Super Duty line was redesigned last year, o little is different for the 2012 F-250. Some models receive a 100-200-pound boost in towing capacity. (Note: Tow ratings on select F-350 and F-450 models were increased by up to 1,500 pounds.) Other notable upgrades or additions include gooseneck/fifth-wheel hitch availability for the 6.75-foot cargo box and new "AppLink" smartphone integration functionality for the Ford Sync system.

Introduction

Even though the F-250 Super Duty was redesigned in 2011, relentless pressure from its Detroit rivals prompted Ford to improve the diesel's torque and towing capacity, pecifications that are critical to most heavy-duty pickup buyers. These upgrades reflect a highly competitive truck market. While brand loyalty drives the majority of pickup sales, the rivalry is so close that for picky cross-shopping buyers, he deciding factor comes down to the details -- a purchasing criteria in which Ford may have a slight edge over its challengers.

In some respects, he 2012 Ford F-250 Super Duty is more versatile and appealing than its bigger brothers, he F-350 and F-450. The towing and payload numbers are lower, f course, ut the lighter F-250 is a little more nimble and might return better fuel economy. The lower price point gives customers more flexibility in accessorizing and personalizing their trucks with factory options or aftermarket equipment to suit their needs.

Ford's integration of high-end electronic features is another top selling point for the Super Duty. Besides available navigation, D radio, satellite radio, he Sync electronics interface and AppLink features, here's the unique LCD productivity display on the instrument panel that provides vital fuel economy, owing and off-road-driving information.

Overall, he F-250 Super Duty represents a total package befitting a widely defined market and customer. The big-rig character is personified by the massive but well-proportioned styling that includes an imposing chrome grille and football-sized Blue Oval badge. The truck's gentler side offers comfortable seating and interior amenities to soothe the soul on long trips. For the hard worker or commercial owner, here's a long list of available packages, ptions and features that fit their needs and possibly enhance productivity.

Bottom line: We think quite highly of the 2012 Ford F-250 Super Duty and strongly recommend it.

Body Styles, rim Levels, nd Options

The 2011 Ford F-250 Super Duty is offered in two- or four-wheel drive with the choice of three cab styles: two-door regular cab, our-door SuperCab and four-door crew cab.

Buyers have a choice among four trim levels: base XL, midlevel XLT, pscale Lariat and luxury King Ranch. The Lariat is available on SuperCab and crew cab models, hile the King Ranch is offered only on the crew cab.

Powertrains and Performance

The 2012 Ford F-250 Super Duty comes standard with a 6.2-liter gasoline V8 that produces 385 horsepower and 405 pound-feet of peak torque. The optional 6.7-liter turbodiesel V8 is rated at 400 hp and 800 lb-ft of peak torque. To meet the latest air emissions standards, he diesel engine uses an after-treatment system that requires replenishment of diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) about every 7,500 miles. Both engines are mated to a six-speed automatic transmission.

Properly equipped, the F-250 Super Duty can tow up to 14,000 pounds with a conventional trailer setup. When configured for fifth-wheel towing, hat figure jumps to 16,700 pounds. Maximum payload capacity tops out at 4,290 pounds when properly equipped.

Safety

The 2012 Ford F-250 Super Duty comes standard with four-wheel antilock disc brakes, tability control, railer sway control, ill start assist and side curtain airbags. An integrated trailer brake controller is standard on XLT and higher models, hile the Lariat trim level adds rear parking sensors and power-adjustable pedals. A rearview camera is optional on the XLT and Lariat, nd standard on the King Ranch model.

Interior Design and Special Features

Most of the 2012 Ford F-250 Super Duty's industrial-theme interior carries over from the previous generation. Compared to the Dodge Ram, the Ford Super Duty is beginning to look a little long in the tooth. Hard plastics dominate the interior on lower trim levels, ut are on par or better than other trucks in this segment. Opting for the Lariat will add a decidedly upscale experience with rich leather and added amenities, nd the King Ranch model is arguably the best executed theme truck on the market.

Storage and utility options abound in the Ford F-250. There's a lockable bin under an available front center 40/20/40-split bench seat, hich also folds to serve as an armrest. Another lockable bin that can easily accommodate longer items (like a hunting rifle) is located under the rear seats and also features a 12-volt power point to charge computers or cell phones. The available 40/console/40 seat can be configured to accommodate a laptop, anging files and other office-style items. It also offers a 12-volt power point and 110-volt inverter for portable printers or other electronic accessories. The large multifunction display in the instrument cluster that's standard on Lariat and King Ranch models allows the driver to customize settings and relays trip computer, uel economy, owing and off-road information.

Driving ImpressionsCompared to the competition, he 2012 Ford F-250 Super Duty line is noticeably quieter, ith wind and road noise pleasantly silenced. Even the diesel's customary clatter has been hushed to barely detectable levels. As with any heavy-duty pickup, he ride can be a bit jittery when unloaded, ut the F-250 remains well-mannered over rough roads. The chief downside to the Ford's dynamics is the steering, hich feels numb and instills less confidence (especially when towing) than its competitors.

Towing is a big part of the Super Duty's capabilities, nd the 6.7-liter diesel will likely be the engine of choice. Even when lugging a 10,000-pound trailer up a steep grade, he diesel climbs with ease, nd the six-speed automatic never labors, or does it get caught hunting for the right gear. Drivers may selectively lock out unwanted higher gears to ensure optimal towing prowess, ut the tow/haul mode does most of the work very well. Descending is also made simple thanks to the well-managed automatic transmission teaming up with the diesel's exhaust brake.
