Common Questions
Answers based on our research and real owner data
What can a 2017 E-350 Super Duty actually tow?
It depends on which configuration you get. The 2017 E-350 Super Duty ranges from 15,000 to 21,000 lbs. That's a big spread! The difference usually comes down to cab style, drivetrain, and engine choice. We always recommend staying around 80% of your max — so 16,800 lbs for safe towing.
Which configuration should I pick?
Start with what you're towing. If you know your RV or trailer weight, work backwards. Generally, 4WD adds safety at boat ramps and campgrounds but reduces towing capacity slightly. Crew cabs give you passenger room but less payload. Check the table above — we highlight towing and MPG so you can compare at a glance.
How does payload affect what I can tow?
Here's what catches people off guard: tongue weight counts against your payload. For bumper pull trailers, that's typically 10-15% of the trailer's loaded weight. So if your trailer weighs 8,000 lbs, you're putting 800-1,200 lbs in your truck bed. Add passengers and gear, and payload fills up fast.
What hitch do I need for a E-350 Super Duty?
For the 2017 E-350 Super Duty, we recommend a Class V receiver hitch. It's rated for the full towing capacity of 21,000 lbs. Don't skimp here — your hitch is the critical link between truck and trailer.
