PERFORMANCE

When you’re in the market for a truck, power may be at the forefront of your mind. As noted, the 2023 Ford F-350 and the Ram 3500 are built to haul. In order to offer such impressive capabilities, they each need to be equipped with a supreme powertrain.

Choose the Power Your Worksite Demands

When you want the most power, the Ford F-350 is the way to go. Not only will you find a powerful standard engine, but you’ll also find three available ones, providing you with four enticing options:

6.8-liter V8 engine: 405 horsepower and 445 lb-ft of torque

7.3-liter V8 engine: 430 horsepower and 485 lb-ft of torque

6.7-liter Power Stroke® V8 Turbo Diesel engine: 475 horsepower and 1,050 lb-ft of torque

6.7-liter High Output Power Stroke® V8 Turbo Diesel engine: 500 horsepower and 1,200 lb-ft of torque

With any of these motors, you’ll be able to rule the road, the trail, the worksite, or wherever else you roam.

Ford Has the Most Power

The sole gas engine in the Ram 3500 leaves a bit to be desired, though, with 410 horsepower and 429 lb-ft of torque. You can, however, opt for a diesel motor on this pickup. While it’s comparable to its rival in terms of pulling power with 1,075 lb-ft of torque, it also falls short at only 420 horsepower.

If you want more power, you’ll want to stick with the Ford F-350.

CAPABILITY

A powerful engine is just the start of what these trucks can provide. If you’re ready to hit the road with your furniture, materials, or even your boat, you’ll want to find out which truck can haul your cargo. While both models are impressive, only one can come out on top.

Haul Your Essentials With Ease

In addition to towing, you need a work truck that can carry your hefty supplies and equipment. The 2023 Ford F-350 and the Ram 3500 are up for the job, with standard boxes measuring over six feet long. This means you can toss in plywood and drywall with complete ease.

Need more space? You can also opt for an 8-foot box on both trucks.

How Much Can Your Truck Carry?

Where the F-350 and the Ram 3500 really differ, though, is their maximum payload abilities. The Ram 3500 tops out at 7,680 pounds, which is impressive.

However, that can’t compete with the maximum 8,000-pound payload of the F-350 when properly equipped. With more capability comes the ability to fit more of the equipment your next major job calls for.

OFF-ROADING

Driving down the highway can be thrilling, but nothing quite beats the feeling of taking your truck down the roads less traveled. If you’re ready for some off-roading fun, it’s time to find out which one of these trucks can help you do that.

Roam Off the Paved Path

After a long week at your farm, you’re ready to unwind on the open trails. These trucks are ready for whatever off-roading throws your way, with their available 4×4 systems.

The 4-wheel drivetrain enables you to cruise over rocks and through mud with complete ease and stability so you can journey with confidence.

Trail Control

When the road gets particularly challenging, switch on the available Trail Control™ mode in the 2023 Ford F-350. This system maintains a low-set speed for you, so you can devote your full attention to navigating around any obstacles in your path.

Unfortunately, the Ram 3500 doesn’t have such an advanced off-road system to lend a hand.
