Test drive: Ford F650, 6.8-liter Ford Triton, V10 gasoline engine

Fleet Equipment Staff
By Fleet Equipment Staff

The claim to Ford’s Medium-duty fame has always been its hard-working dependability and durability. For 2016, the F650 sports a second-generation 6.7-liter Power Stroke V8 diesel engine; that’s no surprise. What may come as a surprise is the growing popularity of the gas engine option. A 6.8-liter V10 gas engine is now available for both the F650 and F750.
