F-Series trucks are built on a reputation for outstanding strength and dependability established over decades of solid engineering performance. And now, Ford Super Duty builds further on that reputation with major advances in technology, offering available driver-assist features such as BLIS with Cross-Traffic Alert and Trailer Coverage and Pro Trailer Backup Assist providing an experience of greater operating control and confidence.

Whether you’re a novice or a seasoned pro, whether it’s a gooseneck or a 5th wheel, backing up a trailer with the available, class-exclusive* Pro Trailer Backup Assist makes it easy. Rotate a knob on the instrument panel left or right in the direction you want the trailer to go. It’s that simple.

*Class is full-size pickups under 8,500 lbs. GVWR.

We should all drive defensively, but sometimes other people’s lack of attention can create a hazard. This feature scans the road ahead and can alert you to potential collisions with vehicles detected in your path. If an impact becomes imminent and you don’t take corrective action, the brakes apply automatically. But don’t worry – they’ll only activate if they’re needed.

Adaptive Cruise Control takes conventional cruise control to a new level. It lets you select the speed and distance you want to maintain from the vehicle in front of you. When traffic ahead slows down, you automatically do too, and later resume the preset speed when traffic picks back up.

It’s rush hour on the highway. You’re towing a boat and you need to change lanes. If this situation sounds daunting, it usually is. But available BLIS with Trailer Coverage can help ease lane-change anxiety – even with a trailer in tow. It can alert you not only when a vehicle is spotted in your blind spot but also when one is alongside the trailer.

It happens. Maybe you’re caught up listening to your favourite podcast or need your morning latte, but you’ve wandered a little too close to the edge of your lane. Luckily, Lane-Keeping Alert can help you stay in your lane, even during a moment of distraction. This smart feature scans your vehicle’s position between the lines in the road ahead and can alert you if you’re starting to edge out of your lane. Having trouble staying on track? After you’ve drifted a few times, you’ll see a coffee cup icon, letting you know it’s time to take a break.

We’ve all been there. Heading into a pitch-black stretch of road and having to turn on the high beams – then forgetting to turn them off again as oncoming traffic approaches. Now, unlit roads, dark peripheries and other low-visibility situations don’t have to catch you off guard. Available Auto High-Beam Headlamps can sense poor lighting conditions and switch on to light your path ahead. They even sense oncoming headlights and dim automatically so you don’t have to worry about blinding other drivers, allowing you to keep your focus – and both hands on the wheel.

Between glancing in the rearview mirror and craning your neck, backing up requires a little multitasking. So we help make it easier. The Rear View Camera may not be an extra set of eyes, but it does provide a great view of what’s behind your vehicle. Just make sure to keep the camera lens free of debris and you can navigate and reverse with more confidence.

Steep hills are often tricky to navigate, especially if you’re towing a trailer. Hill Descent Control can help make the situation easier – and anxiety free – by doing just what its name says. It helps you maintain a set speed when you’re driving down an incline, by automatically applying the brake when needed.

Super Duty offers available upfitter switches, located in an overhead console, for a variety of aftermarket accessories such as a winch, lights, strobes, two-way radio. They’re factory installed, so there’s no need to cut into the truck’s electrical system. Six switches include two 40-amp switches (ignition on or off) plus four 25-amp switches (ignition on).
