Who loves the F-550: Contractors who need a real service body truck | Landscapers running dump beds around Chardon | Tow operators building rollback rigs | Municipal fleets and utility crews across Geauga County

A Chassis Built for Whatever You Put on It

The F-550 isn't a pickup truck. It's a platform. Ford builds the cab, the frame, the drivetrain, and the running gear—then you decide what goes on the back. Service body for your plumbing operation in Middlefield. Flatbed for hauling equipment around Chardon. Dump bed for your landscaping crew in Newbury. Rollback for your towing business. The F-550 handles it all because it was designed from the ground up for exactly this kind of work.

If you've been trying to make a pickup truck do commercial work, you know the limits. Payload maxes out. The bed isn't configured right. You're constantly working around what the truck wasn't built for. The F-550 eliminates that. It's built for commercial applications from the factory, with the GVWR, frame strength, and chassis specs to handle real work without complaint.

What the F-550 Platform Delivers

GVWR: Up to 19,500 lbs—serious capacity for upfit weight plus payload
Gooseneck towing: Up to 40,000 lbs when properly equipped
Chassis cab design: No bed from factory—ready for your upfitter
Power Stroke diesel: The torque and durability commercial work demands
PTO provisions: Available for hydraulic dumps, cranes, and powered equipment

The F-550 sits in that sweet spot between pickup trucks and medium-duty commercial vehicles. You get serious capability without jumping to a truck that requires different licensing or feels like you're driving a delivery vehicle. It's still a Super Duty—same cab, same controls, same driving experience—just with more frame underneath and the ability to carry whatever body your work requires.

Does the F-550 come with a bed?

No. The F-550 is a chassis cab—Ford builds everything up to the back of the cab, and you add the body that fits your work. Service bodies, flatbeds, dump beds, and custom upfits are all common configurations.

What's the difference between F-450 and F-550?
