Specific Trim Level Blog

When a truck needs to be equal parts muscle and modern command center, the 2026 Ford Super Duty® F-250® Lariat® delivers. It balances stout engine options, confident towing tech, and premium cabin amenities with the sort of durability that keeps projects on pace and weekends wide open. If the daily grind includes trailering, project-site logistics, and shuttling crews or family, the Lariat brings clarity to the chaos with capability that feels natural from the driver’s seat — even when the task list is long and the route throws in surprise detours.

Under the hood, power is tailored to the job. Choose the responsive 6.8L gas V8 for balanced performance, step up to the 7.3L gas V8 for extra grunt, or opt into the 6.7L Power Stroke® V8 Turbo Diesel — including a High Output variant — for serious torque under heavy loads. Every choice pairs with the TorqShift®-G 10-speed automatic transmission for smooth, decisive shifting. A fully boxed, high-strength steel frame underpins the operation, and with available towing technologies such as Pro Trailer Backup Assist™, Pro Trailer Hitch Assist™, and Onboard Scales with Smart Hitch, the hookup-to-haul process becomes a repeatable routine rather than a white-knuckle moment.

Spend any time navigating busy yards or tight job sites and the Lariat’s visibility upgrades prove their worth. PowerScope® trailer tow mirrors extend for a wider field of view, while the 360-Degree Camera stitches together surroundings so placement and positioning feel more precise. Add available Head-Up Display to keep essential data in view, and the available 12-inch center display with SYNC® 4 integrates navigation, wireless smartphone compatibility, and voice control to reduce distraction when it counts most.

The work does not stop when the truck is parked, and that is where available 2kW Pro Power Onboard™ shines. Power saws, charge tools, or keep campsite gear running from in-bed outlets — without the extra generator. For drivers seeking trail confidence, the available Tremor® Off-Road Package adds off-road tuned components designed to maintain composure where pavement ends. Whether climbing into the foothills or weaving through city streets with a loaded trailer, the Lariat feels dialed-in, confident, and prepared.

  • Powertrain Choices: 6.8L gas V8, 7.3L gas V8, and 6.7L Power Stroke® V8 Turbo Diesel options — including a High Output variant — pair with the TorqShift®-G 10-speed automatic.
  • Towing Confidence: Available Pro Trailer Backup Assist™, Pro Trailer Hitch Assist™, and Onboard Scales with Smart Hitch streamline setup and balance.
  • Visibility Tools: PowerScope® trailer tow mirrors and a 360-Degree Camera help when threading job sites or backing to a hitch.
  • Smart Cabin: Available 12-inch center display with SYNC® 4, wireless compatibility, and an available Head-Up Display put key info where it is needed.
  • On-Site Power: Available 2kW Pro Power Onboard™ turns the bed into a power hub for tools, lighting, or tailgates.
  • Off-Road Readiness: The available Tremor® Off-Road Package is tuned for traction and control far from pavement.

Those upgrades are not just nice-to-haves — they reshape the daily rhythm. With visibility and trailer guidance systems working in the background, hook-ups become less time-consuming and more precise. With onboard power, the truck supports the job even when a site does not. And with the Lariat’s technology suite, drivers stay better informed and more comfortable, which pays real dividends over long days.
