The 2001 Ford F-250 belongs to the tenth-generation Super Duty lineup, a model which solidified Ford's prowess in the heavy-duty pickup segment. It comes with a choice of rear-wheel drive or four-wheel drive, along with manual or automatic transmission. Power comes from one of three engines: a 5.4L V8, a 6.8L V10, or a robust 7.3L turbodiesel V8 delivering from 260 hp to as much as 275 hp. Three trims - XL, XLT, and Lariat - offer options from basic work truck to a near-luxury cruiser. The F-250 comes with standard dual airbags and ABS, while creature comforts increase as you rise through the trims, including leather upholstery, power options, and CD audio on the Lariat. Its sturdy construction, potent powerplants, and diverse range make it a go-to choice among heavy-duty trucks.
