Ford F-600 Joins Hard-Working Lineup, Commercial Models Updated

The Ford F-600 is the size of a Class 5 truck but has the capability of a Class 6 model.

Ford has big news for its commercial customers as the company introduces the new F-600 Super Duty, in addition to updating some of the other products in this hard-working range of products. The F-600 goes on sale in mid-2020.

The F-600 Super Duty chassis cab is a medium-duty, Class 6 pickup but with the footprint of a smaller Class 5 model to slot between the existing F-550 and F-650. The F-600 is the same size as an F-550 but has upgrades like a heavier duty driveline and chassis that allows for a higher gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR). Ford aims it at buyers who need the extra hauling power that comes in a Class 6 truck but without the greater size that can be awkward on some work sites.

The F-600 is available with three engines: a 7.3-liter gas-fueled V8, 6.2-liter gas-fueled V8, and 6.7-liter Power Stroke diesel. All three are available with a 10-speed automatic and a power takeoff offering 300 lb-ft of torque. Buyers can select between 4x2 and 4x4 drivetrain configurations.

Elsewhere in Ford's commercial vehicle lineup, the Blue Oval introduces new safety tech. For example, the 2020 Transit gets automatic emergency braking, forward collision warning, post-collision braking, Lane-Keeping System, and auto high-beam headlamps. Optional features include adaptive cruise control, Blind Spot Information System with trailer coverage, enhanced active park assist, side sensing system, front and rear split-view camera, and adjustable speed limiting device. The 2019 Transit Connect also has standard automatic emergency braking.

On the F-650, F-750, E-Series, F-53, and F-59, traction control, hill start assist and automatic headlamps are now standard. Plus, adaptive cruise control, electronic stability control, lane departure warning, Driver Alert System, and auto high-beam headlamps join the optional features list.

Hire a refrigerated van fleet to access great service at minimal cost

Vehicle acquisition makes up a huge part of business fleet costs, particularly when that fleet operates within a cold chain. In this blog, we examine why   refrigerated truck rental   holds the key to acquiring high-quality service at a low cost. Why choose refrigerated vans? First thing’s first - which vehicle model is best for your business needs? Needless to say, there is a healthy demand for refrigerated HGVS. However, for many small businesses operating a cold chain, refrigerated vans can pose the best solution. Refrigerated transport is often used for relatively small loads - such as online food shopping, events catering, or fresh produce deliveries to small stores. In each of these situations, a refrigerated van may be the most suitably sized vehicle. On top of this, congestion on the roads is getting worse. Research by the Institute of Economic Affairs (IEA) found that vehicle traffic has increased by 5% since 2000, while the length of the road network rose by jus
