About this generation

The Super Duty line received a significant exterior upgrade that includes a new, bigger front fascia. Its engines were also upgraded to better compete with the new Silverado HD and Ram HD. Ford stated in the 2011 Chicago Auto Show that the 2011 trucks had the thickest gauge steel frame of any truck in its class; this was due to the frame being the same design that debuted in 1999. The 2011 Ford F-Series Super Duty was awarded Truckin's "Topline Pulling Power" award for 2011.

It also won Popular Mechanics' best workhorse of 2011, and the best "Gear of the Year" in the trucks category. The F-450 is able to tow and has a maximum payload of . The F-350 has a maximum of towing capacity and of payload depending on configuration. Each engine is mated to a 6R140 heavy-duty TorqShift six-speed automatic transmission. The Ford F-250, F-350, and F-450 all come with trim levels including the XL, XLT, Lariat, King Ranch, and Platinum.

The third generation of the Ford Super Duty trucks were assembled at Ford's Kentucky Truck Plant, with additional production in Venezuela. In Venezuela, the F-350 was offered as a commercial use small truck cutaway featuring a 6.2L V8 gas engine with a 5-speed manual TREMEC transmission TR-4050 with a choice of two- or four-wheel drive. Since 2012 due to government regulations, the Venezuelan F-350 Super Duty is factory equipped to use both natural gas and gasoline.

The F-250 Super Duty was also recently re-introduced in this market after ten years. It was being marketed using the same engine as the Venezuelan F-350, but only with a 6-speed automatic transmission, 4×2 or 4×4 wheel drive option in both single and double cab configurations. A feature unique to the 2011 Super Duty was the addition of a locking differential. It was only available for the F-250 and SRW F-350 4×4 models with a rear Sterling 10.5 axle.

It was a US$390 option. The diesel F-250 used vacuum-boost brakes, while the F-350 used Hydro-Boost brakes. Both gas versions of the F-250 and SRW F-350 used vacuum-boost. The F-250 was a Class 2 truck, while the F-350 SRW, F-350 DRW, and F-450 pickup were Class 3 trucks. The F-250 and F-350 (SRW and DRW) have 13.66-inch front brakes and 13.39-inch rear brakes. The 2015–2016 F-250 and F-350 had 14.29-inch vented disc brakes on the front and rear axles as an improvement made for these model years.

The F-450 pickup had 14.53-inch front brakes and 15.35-inch rear brakes. The F-450 had a wider track than the F-350. The F-450 remained available in Class 4 as a chassis-cab truck. The trucks were once under investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration for steering failures, but the investigation revealed that the failures were caused by driver error and had nothing to do with design. For the 2011 model year, the central bezel from the second-generation (2008–2010) Super Duty was kept, although features such as a full color LCD instrument panel display screen and a Sony premium amplified audio system with subwoofer were now available.

An auxiliary audio input jack now came standard on all Super Duty models, regardless of radio choice. In 2013, upper trim-level Super Duties could be ordered with the new MyFord Touch infotainment system with Ford SYNC, which included an eight-inch touchscreen display, a rear backup camera system, and HD Radio. The center bezel in these trucks was slightly redesigned to accommodate the new infotainment system, which was also paired with the Sony premium amplified audio system with subwoofer.

XL – Included: Vinyl upholstery, manual seats with cupholders and storage bin in front, manual locks, manual windows, 17" steel wheels (F-250/350) or 17" aluminum wheels (F-450), trailer brake controller (DRW), manual air conditioning, black vinyl floor covering, malfunction message center, manual towing mirrors, and an AM/FM stereo with digital clock and two speakers.
