2027 Ford F-250 Super Duty
Quick Answer
2027 Ford F-250 Super Duty
For 2027 the Ford F-250 simplifies to two engines — the 7.3L gas V8, now standard on every trim, and the available 6.7L High-Output Power Stroke diesel — while towing up to 23,000 lbs gooseneck (diesel, properly equipped) and about 19,500 lbs on the now-standard 7.3L gas. Beadle Ford in Bowdle, SD builds 2027 F-250s to order for daily drivers, weekend haulers, and ranch work across South Dakota.
Here's our take on the 2027 changes: making the 7.3L gas standard is good news for the F-250 buyer. It's the most truck most people around here actually need — daily-drivable, plenty for a camper or an occasional gooseneck, and no diesel premium. This page covers what's new, what it tows, and how to build the right one before they land.
What's New for the 2027 F-250
2027 simplifies the Super Duty: the engine lineup drops from four to two. The 7.3L gas V8 is now standard on every trim, and the 6.7L High-Output Power Stroke is the only diesel. For the F-250 buyer, standard gas power is the headline — more capability for the money on the engine most owners actually use.
- Two engines, not four: 7.3L gas V8 standard on all trims; 6.7L High-Output Power Stroke diesel optional across the line.
- Tremor Off-Road now available on the XL (with the STX Appearance Package), opening the off-road package to the work trim.
- New XL Off-Road 35-inch Tire Package — 35-inch tires, locking rear differential, taller ride height, Rock Crawl mode, Trail Control, and skid plates.
- New Super Duty Carhartt Package — work-ready styling on single-rear-wheel trucks.
- New exterior colors — Neptune Blue and Iconic Silver Metallic added; Argon Blue Metallic and Avalanche retired.
From the Beadle Ford Lot
Most F-250 shoppers who walk in worried about the engine changes leave relieved. They came in thinking they might need a diesel; once they see the 7.3L gas is now standard — and how much towing it actually covers — the simpler lineup usually fits them better than what they walked in asking about.

2027 F-250 Engines: Standard Gas Power, Simpler Decision
The 2027 F-250 offers the 7.3L gas V8 (standard on every trim) and the available 6.7L High-Output Power Stroke diesel. The gas V8 handles daily driving and most recreational and ranch towing; the diesel is there when you tow heavy and often. Both use the 10-speed TorqShift automatic.
Our Recommendation
For most daily drivers and weekend haulers around Bowdle and Aberdeen, the now-standard 7.3L gas V8 is the smart pick — it covers daily miles and up to about 19,500 lbs of fifth-wheel or gooseneck towing without diesel cost or complexity. Step up to the High-Output diesel only if you tow heavy and often or want the maximum ratings. Full breakdown: 2027 F-250 gas vs. diesel.
2027 F-250 Trim Levels
XL — the tool: fleet, jobsite, hose-out durability (Tremor Off-Road now available here for 2027).
XLT — work capability plus everyday comfort at the value sweet spot.
Lariat — the 12-inch SYNC 4 touchscreen and leather for long days and long highway miles.
King Ranch — Western-styled luxury that still works for a living.
Platinum — the most modern, tech-forward luxury F-250.
Right for You If
XL — you want a straightforward work truck and the best price of entry.
XLT — you want daily comfort and capability without paying for luxury; most F-250 buyers land here.
Lariat — you live in the truck on long drives and want leather and the big screen.
King Ranch / Platinum — you want a luxury daily driver that still tows and hauls like a Super Duty.
The new Super Duty Carhartt Package brings work-grade Carhartt styling to single-rear-wheel trucks. Full trim, package, and color detail: 2027 F-250 trims and colors & appearance.
From the Beadle Ford Lot
The XLT and Lariat are where most of our F-250 buyers land — enough comfort to live with daily, without paying for a luxury trim they don't need. Since 2027 F-250s are built to order right now, the people getting exactly what they want are the ones locking in cab, 4x4, and packages early.
How Much Can the 2027 F-250 Tow?
Properly equipped, the 2027 F-250 tows up to 23,000 lbs gooseneck and 22,100 lbs fifth-wheel with the 6.7L High-Output Power Stroke diesel and the High-Capacity Axle Upgrade, and up to 22,000 lbs conventional. With the now-standard 7.3L gas V8, it tows up to about 19,500 lbs on a fifth-wheel or gooseneck and 18,200 lbs conventional.
For the way most F-250 owners tow — a travel trailer, a fifth-wheel camper, or an occasional gooseneck — the standard 7.3L gas has the room. The diesel and the High-Capacity Axle Upgrade are there for buyers who run near the top of the range regularly. Either way, the right answer comes from your real loaded trailer weight, not just the headline number.
From the Beadle Ford Lot
The towing conversation we have most often is with camper buyers who assumed they needed a diesel. Once we weigh their actual trailer against the now-standard 7.3L gas, most realize the gas truck covers it with margin to spare — and saves them the diesel premium. We size the truck to your real load, not the spec sheet.
