2012 Ford F-Super Duty vs 2012 Chevrolet Silverado Heavy Duty

Silverado HD vs Ford F-350 Superduty

we are aware that we sell nothing less than the best heavy duty trucks on the market here at Chevrolet Sumner, hands down. Though ford continues to try and compete with Chevy, they fail time and time again. The Ford F-Super Duty vs. the Silverado HD is the perfect example.  The Silverado HD has greater power, performance, handling, safety and functionality. Below is simply a brief sampling of some of the ways the Chevrolet Silverado HD dominates the Ford F-Super Duty:

Safety: For additional protection, the front shoulder belts of the Chevrolet Silverado HD are height-adjustable, and the rear seats have child car seat anchors. The Ford F-Super Duty has only front height-adjustable seat belts and child safety anchors. The Silverado HD’s standard pretensioning seatbelts sense rear collisions and tighten the front seatbelts as to protect passengers from injuries including whiplash. The F-Super Duty doesn’t offer a whiplash protection system. The Chevrolet Silverado HD has Daytime Running Lights that keep it visible under all conditions. The F-Super Duty decided not to offer Daytime Running Lights. These are just a few of the superior safety features in the Silverado HD that the Super Duty fails to provide.

Warranty: Chevrolet’s powertrain warranty covers the Silverado HD 40,000 miles longer than Ford covers the F-Super Duty! The Silverado HD’s corrosion warranty is also one year longer than the F-Super Duty’s. Clearly Chevrolet is more confident in the quality and durability of the Silverado HD than Ford is of its F-Super Duty.

Fuel Economy and Range The Silverado HD has 10 gallons more fuel capacity than the F-Super Duty Diesel Short Bed’s standard fuel tank! The Chevrolet Silverado HD also has much higher fuel economy compared to the Ford Super Duty. The combination of a much bigger gas tank and better fuel efficiency allows the Silverado to out work the Super Duty for much longer, while the Ford requires more frequent stops to refuel.

Drivetrain: The Silverado HD has a authentic four-wheel drive system, which uses a four-wheel traction control system to direct engine power to the specific axle and wheel that has traction. This will keep your Silverado HD keep up and running—even if only one wheel has traction! The F-Super Duty doesn’t have real four-wheel drive. The Ford can effortlessly get stuck, despite having one or more wheels with traction. The Silverado HD also has a great deal more standard payload capacity than the F-Super Duty. The Crew Cab Silverado HD 3500 4×4 has a payload capacity of 4,190 pounds compared to the Ford Super Duty’s greatly reduced 3,260 pounds of payload capacity! That means the Silverado HD can get work done that the Super Duty just can’t handle.

Suspension and Handling: The Chevrolet Silverado HD’s independent front suspension is lighter than the F-Super Duty 4×4’s solid front axle. This gives the Silverado HD greater capacity to react to the road. This makes both the ride and handling of the Chevy better than the Ford. For an even smoother ride and better handling the Silverado HD’s wheelbase is longer than the F-Super Duty’s.

Brakes and Stopping For better stopping power, the F-Super Duty’s rotors hail in comparison to the Silverado HD’s standard brake rotors. The Silverado HD’s superior rotor size and other factors allow it to stop shorter and faster than the F-Super Duty.

Tires and Wheels: The Silverado HD offers tires with better handling because they have a lower profile that gives a stiffer sidewall than the F-Super Duty’s optional tires.

Interior: The Silverado HD Regular Cab has more front headroom and more front legroom than the F-Super Duty Regular Cab. The Silverado HD Extended Cab also has more front head and leg room well as more rear head and leg room than the F-Super Duty SuperCab. The Silverado HD Crew Cab has more front room than the F-Super Duty SuperCrew. Thus, the Chevy Silverado HD is the more specious and comfortable choice than the Ford Super Duty. The Silverado HD has an all welded cargo box as opposed to the Ford Super Duty’s bolted cargo box. This means that the Silverado HD has a hugely reduced chance of having rust and corrosion throughout its life than the F-Super Duty

Convenience: When the Silverado HD LTZ reverses, both rearview mirrors tilt from their positions giving the driver better rearview vision. The F-Super Duty’s mirrors don’t automatically adjust when backing up. The Silverado HD LTZ has standard automatic dimming rear and side view mirrors that automatically darken quickly when headlights shine on them. The F-Super Duty’s side mirrors don’t dim.

Awards: The Silverado was chosen as one of Car and Driver’s “Top Five Trucks” for 4 years! The F-Super Duty has never been a Car and Driver “Top Five Truck” pick. Motor Trend selected the Silverado as their 2011 Truck of the Year. The F-Super Duty has never been chosen as Truck of the Year.
