The Ford Super Duty F-250 SRW is a sturdy truck with three configurations – regular, extended, and crew cab. Supported by two V-8 gas engines, enormous payload capacities, and automatic gearboxes with six or 10-speed transmissions, these vehicles are remarkably high on the confidence quotient. Their vast body size makes the automobile even more powerful. The interiors are comfortable and good from the safety angle too. The truck’s top-notch security features make it worth its price.

Safety features
This model has these seven safety features that make it an excellent truck to get home or add to your commercial line-up. These include blind-spot monitors and automatic emergency brakes for added safety on the road, lane-keeping alerts, driver alert modes, a pre-collision assist for enhanced protection while driving, remote keyless entry, an anti-theft system, and more. Keep reading to learn more about such salient features.

Blind Spot Information System (BLIS) 
Blind Spot Information System or BLIS helps monitor the traffic behind or the cross-traffic. This is handy when you have a large trailer attached to the Ford Super Duty. The Cross-Traffic Alert system informs you about the traffic movement behind the vehicle and the trailer being towed. Trailers that are almost 33 feet long are covered effectively by this system.  

Lane-keeping alert 
Another top-notch safety aspect of this truck is the windshield-mounted camera that keeps scanning the road lane markings. Be it day or night; if you tend to move away from your lane or there is an unintended departure in the lane, an alert is immediately generated. The Lane-Keeping system uses high-tech sensors that detect steering wheel vibrations to create alerts.  

Driver alert mode 
This mode warns the driver if there is repeated lane drifting on the driver’s part. It instantly ticks off the driver as such issues usually arise when the driver is tired or faces another problem. It could be related to visual and audio signals/alerts that the driver cannot decipher. Such alerts mean that the driver needs to take a break and pull over to rest.  

Pre-collision assist & forward collision warning  
This system keeps a watch on the road ahead and proactively generates an alert in case there are chances of a probable collision ahead. The system scans and detects vehicles that can result in a forward collision with your truck. So, whether you are an overworked driver or out with friends and family on a road trip, you have someone watching the lane ahead to safeguard your life and property.  

Automatic emergency braking (AEB)
When a collision is unavoidable, the AEB comes into action on its own. The automatic emergency brakes get applied during emergencies only.  

Pre-fitted airbags
The Ford Super Duty F-250 SRW comes pre-fitted with front seat airbags on the front and the sides. A Safety Canopy System consists of side-curtain airbags, child tethers, adjustable and color-coordinated seat belts, and an SOS Post-Crash Alert System. There is also a chime warning in case the belts are unbuckled.  

Standard security features 
Apart from the features mentioned above, there is also a remote keyless entry, anti-theft system, anti-theft alarm on the perimeter, and intrusion sensors. Automatic high beams, adaptive cruise control, active-safety gear at additional costs, excellent visibility, and other features add to the vehicle’s safety. The F-250 has been rated a five by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). This is the crash rating score given for the 2-wheel-drive Crew. The 4-wheel-drive Crew Cabs has got a rating of four. The Insurance Institute (IIHS) is yet to test the model, and the crashworthiness ratings are awaited. 

The Ford Super Duty F-250 SRW is a heavy-duty truck with many top-of-the-line features like its towing capacity, ground clearance, comfortable interiors, and stylish exterior. However, your driver’s or your family’s safety is paramount. The above features make it an ideal buy.
