<div style="text-align: center;"><em><strong><small>2011 Ford Super Duty - Click above for high-res image gallery</small></strong></em></div>
<br />
Heavy duty truck lovers have been waiting for these figures for a while, so let's just get to the main course. The 2011 Ford Super Duty can be had with two engines: the 6.2-liter gasoline-powered V8 found in the upgraded SVT Raptor, which puts out 385 horsepower and 405 pound-feet of torque or an all-new, Ford-designed 6.7-liter turbo-diesel V8 producing 390 hp and a pavement pummeling 735 lb-ft of twist (at 1,600 rpm).<br />
<br />
The latter engine in the F450 is able to tow some 24,400 pounds and has a maximum payload of 6,520 pounds. The F350 - which is the closest competitor to the Chevrolet, GMC or Ram equivalent - comes to the fight with 21,600 pounds of towing capacity and 6,250 pounds of payload, with each engine mated to an 6R140 heavy-duty TorqShift six-speed automatic transmission.<br />
<br />
Our First Drive of the new King of the Hill will be forthcoming, but you can get all the details in the press release after the jump. Oh, and General Motors, there's a big ass ball in your court.<br />
