2007 Ford F-250 Superduty Overview

The 2007 Ford F-250 Super Duty marked the final year of the 1999-2007 generation, before the major redesign in 2008. This year saw minor refinements, but overall, the truck remained largely unchanged from the 2006 model.

The 6.0L Power Stroke diesel engine continued to be the top towing option, but it still required “bulletproofing” modifications (EGR delete, upgraded head studs, better oil cooler) for long-term reliability. However, by 2007, Ford had addressed some of the earlier 6.0L issues, making later versions slightly more dependable when properly maintained.

For buyers looking for a rugged work truck, the 2007 F-250 remained one of the most capable heavy-duty trucks available before the transition to the new body style in 2008.

Note: The Platinum trim was still NOT available in 2007.

The 6.0L Power Stroke remained unchanged from the previous year. While some late-model 2007 versions were more reliable, bulletproofing modifications were still highly recommended.
