Didn’t you wish that there was a heavy-duty pickup truck with the features of a top-of-the-line luxury sedan? The Ford F-Series Super Duty Limited lineup is just that and more.

We are unsure about how to respond to the idea of a $100,000 F-Series pickup truck. Anyway, let’s get acclimatized to the world where such a thing exists. Meet the Ford F-Series Limited Super Duty lineup – a high-end, heavy duty pickup truck range which is loaded up like a luxury sedan.

The luxury treatment is spread across three trucks which form the Super Duty range – F-250, F-350 and F-450 – with MSRPs of $80,835, $82,010 and $87,100 respectively. Wait a second. What about the $100,000 in the title of this post?

Allow me to explain. Once you are done checking the boxes in the options list and shell out the obligatory taxes and fees, the investment on the F-450 Super Duty Limited is going to transform from $87,00 to that title-friendly number of $100,000. See, we weren’t click-baiting you with that fancy figure.

Ford is well aware of the questions that are going to be launched at them. Who wants to buy a heavy-duty truck at that kind of money? Todd Eckert, Ford truck group marketing manager responds,

"There are heavy-duty truck customers who need Super Duty-level capability and want true luxury. We created this new truck to answer the call for even more premium choices in the Super Duty range as we see more and more truck customers trending to more premium models."

Premium customers prefer advanced tech and features which will make life easier for them. Ford has put much thought and effort into that part too by adding driving aids, SYNC 3 infotainment system and safety features which will both meet and exceed the expectations of the target buyers.

On the outside, a special twin-bar satin grille with chrome accents, quad-beam LED lights and satin-finished tailgate appliqué do the job of distinguishing the premium truck from its workhorse siblings. The interior of the Ford F-Series Super Duty Limited has custom Camelback two-tone leather seats, premium stitched leather-wrapped steering wheel, armrests and instrument panel, a suede headliner, hand-finished dark ash wood trim, special badging and a laser-etched serial number on the center console armrest to remind you that you have spent more money on this vehicle.
