Ford’s F-Series Super Duty has been named the 2024 North American Truck of the Year, the fourth consecutive year the truck has nabbed the honor.
The North American Truck of the Year Award is awarded by a group of more than 50 members of the North American automotive media. It is distinctive because it is not tied to a single publication, radio or television station but determined by an independent group of journalists from the U.S. and Canada.
Presented during a press conference co-hosted by the Detroit Auto Dealers Association and Automotive Press Association, the awards are intended to recognize the most outstanding new vehicles of the year based on factors including innovation, design, safety, handling, driver satisfaction, user experience and value.
The F-Series Super Duty beat out the Chevrolet Colorado and Chevrolet Silverado EV to win the award.

“The Ford Super Duty retains its leadership in the heavy-duty pickup truck category with its impressive towing, payload, torque, and horsepower figures. Its four engine choices are highlighted by the new standard 6.8-liter gasoline V8 and 6.7-liter Power Stroke diesel V8. And the big Super Duty is remarkably comfortable and easy to drive,” said juror Jack R. Nerad of America on the Road Radio/JDPower.com/TrueCar.com/USNews.com.
Juror Mark Phelan of the Detroit Free Press added, “Ford’s F-series Super Duty pickups embody the concept “a workhorse and a show horse.” Equally suited to construction sites and towing million-dollar trailers, it’s loaded with technology to simplify its chores and keep the driver comfortable.”
