Ford Chassis Cab F550 XL
BEST-IN-CLASS FRONT GAWR
Now you can upfit bigger than ever with the 2023 Ford Super Duty® Chassis Cab. Some of the weight savings from the all-new high-strength, military-grade, aluminum alloy body were reinvested into heavier-duty frame, axle and suspension components, providing for an increased maximum front gross axle weight rating (FGAWR) of 7,500 lbs. that is best in class.
Key Features
Ford Pro™ Upfit Integration System
- The Ford Pro™ Upfit Integration System is a hardware interface that provides a single-entry point to the Chassis Cab® model’s electrical architecture, digitally connecting the upfit to the vehicle. And peripheral devices such as salt spreaders, light boxes, etc. can now be directly controlled from the SYNC® screen inside the cab.
7.3L 2V DECVT V8 Gas Engine
- A gas-powered V8 designed for strenuous duty. You can haul heavy loads day in and day out. This engine can idle for long periods of time. Giving it impressive durability, performance and power. The result is the overhead valve, port fuel-injected available 7.3L. This big-block "pushrod" V8 engine with variable-cam timing reaches peak power with optimal air-fuel ratio in the low rpm range.
Pre-Collision Assist® With Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB)
- 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 can apply automatically. But don’t worry – they’ll only activate if they’re needed. *
- *Driver-assist features are supplemental and do not replace the driver’s attention, judgment and the need to control the vehicle. Pre-Collision Assist® with Automatic Emergency Braking detects pedestrians, but not in all conditions, and can help avoid or reduce a collision. It does not replace safe driving. See Owner’s Manual for details and limitations.
