Pickup trucks are perhaps the toughest, most competitive body style in the whole automotive marketplace, so for us to choose a winner and call it the best pickup you can buy is a really difficult task — but this year, our winner blew us away with a mixture of astonishing, useful technology, easy driveability and top-notch amenities: the 2024 Ford F-Series Super Duty. It sports a fresh look that it shares with the rest of the F-Series and Ranger lineup, and an updated interior with bigger screens and a new multimedia system.

But big trucks like this are meant for towing big loads, and the new tech in the ‘24 Super Duty is meant to make that even easier than before. Certain models can tow up to an astonishing 40,000 pounds, but it’s the trailering tech that really impresses: There’s now an electronic system that will automatically back the truck up to the trailer’s hitch hands-free, and if you have a big load in the bed and the tailgate is down, a new second backup camera in the top of the tailgate still allows you to see behind you. Add in the Pro Trailer Backup Assist feature, the myriad safety systems and its amazing ability to drive like a much smaller vehicle, and you have our Best Pickup Truck of 2024.
