Model-Year Changes You'll Actually Notice
The 2026 Ford Super Duty updates packages for more streamlined builds and shorter orders. Popular convenience and safety items group more cleanly, several wheel and color combinations rotate by trim, and appearance bundles align closer to real-world orders. The core chassis, frames, and suspensions match those of the 2025 model, which keeps comparisons centered on features and equipment mixes for shoppers driving between West Chester, PA, Wilmington, DE, and Glen Mills, PA.
Engines, Towing, and Payload Strategy
The engine roster is also carried forward, including the 6.8-liter V8 gas engine, the 7.3-liter V8 gas engine, the 6.7-liter Power Stroke diesel, and the high-output 6.7-liter Power Stroke diesel. Tow ratings hinge on axle ratio, cooling, hitch type, and brake controller selection. Payload depends on cab, bed, springs, and tire spec. Daily routes through Glen Mills, PA, often favor the 7.3-liter V8 for immediate throttle response, and long highway miles near Exton, PA typically suit the diesel's sustained torque. Fifth-wheel and gooseneck plans benefit from Smart Hitch and On-Board Scales to verify pin weight during setup.
Tech, Safety, and Work Tools
The SYNC 4 infotainment system pairs with an available 12-inch center display and wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™. Over-the-air updates add features and fixes without a service visit. Pro Trailer Hitch Assist and Pro Trailer Backup Assist return to simplify hookups. The upfit integration system keeps body-builder wiring tidy, and available Pro Power Onboard supports power tools without needing a separate generator at job sites near Aston, PA.
Ford Co-Pilot360 features remain widely available across trims, including blind-spot coverage for trailers and intersection-aware braking on upper configurations.
Trims and Appearance Updates
XL and XLT hold the work-ready baseline with broader access to driver aids in 2026. The Lariat and King Ranch trims gain bundles with heated features, lighting, and audio. Platinum and Limited models feature richer materials and higher tech density, while sport-oriented visuals are available in more configurations. These updates align in-stock trucks with tow and winter packages, reducing the need for standalone add-ons.
