Important: A 0% EU import-duty rate may be available for a vehicle covered by Regulation (EU) 2026/1455 that has US origin and is imported directly into the EU. CETA may apply to a vehicle with preferential Canadian origin. Whether the requirements are met is assessed for the individual case. Please contact us before purchase; we review the possible duty benefit and provide non-binding support through the process. Import VAT and other costs are assessed separately.

Model profile
Ford introduced the Super Duty line for the 1999 model year to separate its three-quarter-ton and one-ton trucks from the light-duty F-150. Key milestones followed: a major redesign for 2008, another for 2011 that introduced Ford's own 6.7-litre Power Stroke diesel, the switch to a high-strength aluminium body for the 2017 model year, and the latest redesign for 2023 with new powertrains and technology.
Powertrain and equipment
The headline engine is the 6.7-litre Power Stroke turbodiesel V8, which over its life has climbed from around 390 hp to as much as 500 hp and up to roughly 1,627 Nm (1,200 lb-ft) in high-output form.
Body configurations include Regular Cab, SuperCab (extended) and Crew Cab, paired with various bed lengths, in SRW or dually form.

Pre-purchase review
Reliability depends heavily on which engine the truck has. The 6.0-litre Power Stroke (2003–2007) is notorious for EGR cooler failures, blown head gaskets and injector problems, and is best avoided unless it has documented remedial work. The 6.4-litre (2008–2010) has DPF and fuel-system weak points.
Germany and Europe
US-market headlights use the FMVSS/SAE beam pattern, which differs from the ECE pattern required in the EU, so they may need adjustment or replacement with ECE-compliant units for registration.
USCar Trader services
As a buyer based in Germany, you do not have to inspect the vehicle yourself in the United States or Canada. Within the agreed scope, USCar Trader can coordinate document review, a separately commissioned on-site inspection and purchase processing.
Covered inspection points are agreed in advance. An on-site inspection records condition at the appointment and is not a guarantee.
Next step: Before commissioning, USCar Trader and the customer agree which document, history, inspection and transaction checks suit the vehicle and are included in the service. This records what was actually checked.

Questions and answers
The 6.7-litre Power Stroke from 2011 onward is the strong choice. Avoid the 6.0-litre (2003–2007) unless it has documented fixes, and be cautious with the 6.4-litre.

Import VAT and other taxes or costs are assessed separately under the applicable rules and the circumstances of the individual case. A blanket answer for every vehicle would not be reliable.
