Grand Rapids Ford & Mazda Dealer News

 
Earlier this year, Ford Motor Company introduced the F-600 at the Work Truck Show in Indianapolis. The new chassis cab truck has gained a lot of attention for the role it plays in Ford’s already robust lineup of work vehicles—combining big truck capabilities of the F-650 and compact performance of the F-550, the F-600 is the maneuverable, intermediate, class 6 truck that answers the demand from customers. Borgman Ford and Borgman Commercial are thrilled to add the F-600 to your fleet in 2020.   

The Truck 
Joining the lineup as the intermediate go-to, the F-600 is a full Class 6, up to 22,000-pound, chasse cab truck that comes with Ford’s 10-speed TorqueShift automatic transmission with live drive power takeoff option. Customers have the option of a 6.7-liter Power Stroke diesel engine or the new 7.3-liter gasoline V-8, will experience Ford’s upgraded brakes and chassis components, and 19.5-inch wheels to achieve the maximum Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR). According to Mike Pruitt, the truck’s chief program engineer, the F-600 is the “right size, with the right power, and the right technology to tackle America’s toughest jobs.” 

To complement the F-600’s big-truck features, it has the assist technology of Ford’s smaller Super Duty lineup for maximum approachability. Available driver-assist technology includes automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning automatic high beam headlights; the additional standard elements of Ford Co-Pilot360 haven’t gone anywhere and include adaptive cruise control, Blind Spot information system, side sensing, forward collision warning, and front and rear split-view cameras. With the comfort of these assist technologies, adding new drivers to your fleet is simpler and safer — lowering training and operating costs in comparison to big truck handling.
