a 6.4-liter Triton V-10 and a 6.4-liter Power Stroke V8 Turbo Diesel Engine that pushes the envelope of power with 350hp @ 3,000 rpm a whopping 650 lb.-ft. of tourque @ 2,000 rpm with Peak torque coming at only 2,000 rpm and thanks to the precision of the piezo actuated fuel injectors the will start in under two seconds at -20 degrees fahrenhite.

2010 Super Duty TorqShift® Transmission
The proven TorqShift® transmission was designed for the high torque of a turbo diesel engine and includes a selectable Tow/Haul Mode that compensates for altitude, grade and load. It also features a three-plate, two-stage torque converter to reduce noise when the converter is locked.
2010 Super Duty Special Features and options:
The 2010 Super Duty rear step that drops from the rear tailgate for easy entry into the bed is sure to be a favorite amongs the big truck owners. A grab handle helps you steady yourself while stepping up.
The stowable bed extender is another useful feature. The previous model took up too much space when not in use and most generally ended up not being on the trucks most of the time. The Super Duty's new extender splits in two, and folds away against the bedside thereby not hindering any useable space when not in use.
The large power mirrors telescope inwards and outwards and lay flat against the truck when you need to move through tight areas. All performed by the power mirrors knob inside the cabin.
Super Duty® has the first factory-installed, fully integrated Trailer Brake Controller (TBC) available in a full-size pickup. No installation hassles or aftermarket worries. TBC is integrated with the ABS and synchronizes vehicle and trailer brakes for seamless braking, even with the heaviest loads. Telescoping trailer tow mirrors are included. TBC is standard on XLT, Cabela’s®, Lariat, King Ranch® and Ford Harley-Davidson™; optional on Super Duty® F-250/F-350 XL.
When towing heavy loads, you'll want the 2010 Ford Super Duty® pulling for you. No truck in its class* can tow more weight when properly equipped. And for fifth-wheel applications, the F-450 capability is without equal. When properly equipped, it can pull an astounding 24,600 lbs.

Ford Voice-Activated Ford SYNC Bluetooth Technology: The 2010 Super Duty® offers all the great features of the available voice-activated Ford SYNC® System* — plus two new features: 911 Assist™ and Vehicle Health Report. With SYNC you can access your music collection on your MP3 player by genre, album, artist or song title and operate your Bluetooth®-enabed phone with simple voice commands.* You can even make music selections through your flash drive by voice command. SYNC gets a major system upgrade with the addition of 911 Assist. Within seconds after airbag deployment, SYNC uses your cell phone connection that you programmed into the system to make a call to a local 911 emergency operator. A prerecorded message will then play when the call is answered, and you'll be able to communicate with the 911 operator.† Along with 911 Assist™, SYNC will offer a Vehicle Health Report feature. SYNC gathers information from the vehicle's control modules and transmits it through the cell phone connection that you programmed into the system to Ford by way of an 800 number. You can receive these health reports free of charge by e-mail or text-message alerts.
