2018 ROUSH Super Duty F-250 Review

by Frank

The 2018 ROUSH Super Duty F-250 consists of several important components to make sure that when hauling materials to a work site, a race car to the track, or ATVs into the dunes, you will enjoy the ride. Maintaining Ford’s abilities in towing and payload, the alterations from ROUSH are designed to operate together and are backed with a 3-year, 36,000-mile guarantee. The ROUSH Super Duty will permit you to tow with confidence, and turn heads while doing this.

2018 ROUSH Super Duty F-250 Styling

ROUSH has taken their off-road styling on the 2018 Ford Super Duty to another level and made every update work together using a pre-titled FMVSS level of certification for security and handling. Components have all been chosen to keep Ford’s best-in-class factory towing and payload capacities – right down to the lug nuts.

2018 ROUSH Super Duty F-250 Wheels

Typical after-market wheels use a conical-style lug nut, which doesn’t have the exact same clamping load as a washer-style with horizontal load-bearing surfaces. The ROUSH solution – they use a flat-washer design to guarantee security, and reliability, and to keep all towing capacities from the factory.

2018 ROUSH Super Duty F-250 Interior

On the interior of this ROUSH Super Duty F-250, they made sure to supply a special atmosphere for all drivers. Custom ROUSH-embroidered headrest, serialized console badge, and WeatherTech floor mats complement the truck’s exterior theme. And discretionary ROUSH Console Vault and Off-Road Utility Kit will give you the tools you have to be prepared for anything.

2018 ROUSH Super Duty F-250 Suspension

Each ROUSH Super Duty F-250 comprises a ROUSH/Fox 2.0 suspension upgrade, leveling the suspension at +1.5 inches, while still shielding Ford’s capacity for payload and towing. The suspension provides an aggressive off-road position, with increased ground clearance and increased overall vehicle height. The ROUSH 20-inch wheels with integrated bead protection (black and gray rings supplied ) are wrapped in BFGoodrich KO2 All-Terrain 35.3-inch tires. These tires are some of the best tires money can buy.

2018 ROUSH Super Duty F-250 Exterior and Exhaust System

The exterior of the 2018 Ford Super Duty is enhanced through a full grille replacement with signature integrated accent lighting, a front bumper cover (compatible with adaptive cruise), and custom body-color fender flares with integrated accent lighting. Along with this menacing package, customizable ROUSH graphics allow you to change up the look of your truck!

Standard image options include the ROUSH USA Flag, Windshield Banner, rocker blackout with accent color, or the included (but optional) large bedside ROUSH logo positioning. Accent colors wrap around the back of the truck using a blackout graphic and accent striping on the tailgate. Coordinating the appearance of your truck can easily be done on our vehicle configurator.

A truck this capable should sound good too! The ROUSH Super Duty F-250 also offers a stainless steel DPF-Back exhaust system (diesel only) with large dual tips, which offers competitive looks and sound at each angle.
