About Ford F-250 HD
As part of the redesign of the F-Series for the 1997 model year, the model family began a split into two model families, with the 1997 Ford F-150 serving as the first of two distinct F-Series lines. This was done in response to the shifting demographics of pickup truck purchases during the 1980s and 1990s. In order to broaden its appeal among customers while maintaining its status as a full-size pickup, Ford designed the F-150 with aerodynamics and convenience features more typical of cars. As a separate and dedicated heavy-duty truck platform, the Ford F-250 and F-350 were developed with the intention of appealing to buyers for commercial and fleet vehicles as well as owners who tow (in place of using one chassis for all of its trucks). It was possible to avoid the inevitable compromises that are inherent in offering a wide range of load-carrying capacities thanks to the expansion of the model line into two separate but related platforms.
Prior to the launch of the Ford Super Duty series, the F-250HD and F-350 from the previous generation were made available for purchase again in 1997 and 1998 (along with a distinct F-250 light duty model for 1997 and 1998 that was based upon the F-150).
Beginning production in early 1998 for the 1999 model (the 1998 model year was skipped), the Ford F-Series Super Duty consisted of the F-250 pickup truck, F-350 pickup truck and chassis cab, and introduced the F-450 and F-550 chassis cab trucks (see below) (see below). The Super Duty trucks were produced with three cab configurations – two-door standard cab, 2+2 door SuperCab, and four-door crew cab. The SuperCab configuration of the Super Duty marked the introduction of two standard rear-hinged doors on the extended cab, a feature also adopted by the F-150 and Ranger/Mazda B-Series for 1999.
