Last year, the Ford Super Duty scored multiple wins in the 2022 Vincentric Best Fleet Value in America Awards as the F-250 earned victory in the 3/4-ton segment and the F-350 in the one-ton pickup segment, while the entire lineup was recognized for its outstanding value stemming from low ownership costs and also brought home a Kelley Blue Book Best Resale Value Award, to boot. Now, the Ford Super Duty lineup has also won a Vincentric 2023 Best Fleet Value in America award, joining the Ford Maverick XL Hybrid in that regard.
The Ford Super Duty F-250 and F-350 once again took home top honors in the full-size 3/4 ton and one-ton segments. The F-250 accomplished this by winning 16 of 28 measured lifecycle cost scenarios, as well as returning the best fuel economy and lowest insurance costs in its class while outperforming 28 rival trims. The F-350 won 17 of 28 measured lifecycle cost scenarios, had the lowest insurance cost and the best fuel economy in its class, and beat out 29 rival trims.
To determine the winners of the 2023 Vincentric Best Fleet Value in America Awards, the company performed a cost of ownership analysis measuring over 2,000 vehicle configurations based on typical fleet use. It accomplished this by using eight different cost factors – depreciation, fees & taxes, financing, fuel, insurance, maintenance, opportunity cost, and repairs, while each vehicle was evaluated in all 50 states plus Washington D.C. using 28 different lifecycle scenarios. Winners were then identified by determining which had the lowest fleet lifecycle cost in the most scenarios within its segment.
“The Vincentric Best Fleet Value in America Awards provide guidance to fleet professionals by identifying vehicles that will bring proven value to their fleets,” said Vincentric President, David Wurster. “Managing costs is a critical part of fleet management, and our awards give valuable insight into which vehicles offer the lowest lifecycle costs in their segments.”
