Ford Offers “Ultimate Snow Machine”

Snow Plow Prep Package on the new 2020 Ford F-Series Super Duty delivers 1,400-pound maximum snow plow rating.

The 2020 Ford F-Series Super Duty, equipped with the available Snow Plow Prep Package, boasts a maximum 1,400-pound snow plow rating, which Ford says is best-in-class for gasoline-powered trucks in the segment, and maximum 1,290 pounds which is also best-in-class for the diesel segment.

“Super Duty is a real workhorse in the snow removal industry,” said Mike Pruitt, Ford F-Series Super Duty chief engineer. “With our new Snow Plow Prep Package, we’re really delivering for folks who clear the way after a big storm. Being able to safely hook up bigger plows means roads, driveways and parking lots are cleared quickly and drivers can move on to the next job.”

The new Snow Plow Prep Package includes heavy-duty springs and an up-rated alternator. A Deep Snow/Sand drive mode is available on models equipped with the all-new 10-speed heavy-duty TorqShift automatic transmission. This drive mode changes throttle mapping and traction control settings to allow for added control in snowy or slick conditions.
