1986 Ford F-250 Super Duty

The 1986 Ford F-250, while not officially designated as “Super Duty,” is known for its robust performance and utility, making it a popular choice for heavy-duty tasks. Engine options include a 4.9L inline-six, a 5.8L V8, and a notable 6.9L V8 Diesel, which produces 170 hp and 314.94 lb-ft of torque in the SuperCab HD configuration. Transmission choices feature a 3-speed automatic and a 4-speed manual, and the vehicle is available in both rear-wheel drive (RWD) and four-wheel drive (4WD) configurations. The braking system includes front disc and rear drum brakes. The dimensions vary by cab style, with a wheelbase measuring 133 inches for Regular Cab and 155 inches for SuperCab, and the overall weight ranges from approximately 4,000 to 5,000 lbs. The F-250 laid the groundwork for the later introduction of the Super Duty designation in Ford’s truck lineup.
