Since the debut of the redesigned 2023 Ford Super Duty, the popular pickup has been in high demand, to the point where The Blue Oval has thus far struggled to build enough units to meet that demand. Regardless, while Ford works to ramp up Super Duty production at the Kentucky Truck plant, output there – as well as the Ohio Assembly plant, where that model is also built – has remained a bit uneven throughout the course of 2024, and that was once again the case in July.
According to FoMoCo’s July sales report, Ford Super Duty production at the Kentucky plant declined from 28,892 units in June to 27,508 in July, which is a drop of 1,384 units, or 4.8 percent. At the Ohio plant, Super Duty production increased, from 2,339 units in June to 2,721 in July – a difference of 382 units, or 16 percent. That means total Ford Super Duty production in July came in at 30,229 units, which is a decrease of 1,002 units, or right around three percent.
It is worth noting that this decrease – albeit a minor one – could be at least partially blamed on summer shutdowns, which Ford typically implements at many of its plants in the month of July, specifically. In fact, almost every model in Ford’s current lineup experienced some sort of production slowdown last month as a result, though July still represents the lowest output for the Super Duty in the 2024 calendar year thus far.
Regardless, Ford Super Duty production also declined in June compared to May as well – from 34,755 units to 31,231, a drop of 3,524 units, or just over 10 percent. Prior to that, Super Duty production had been growing for some months, including March, when increased by 3,391 units or just over 10 percent versus February.

Not true. I work at KTP and we have not slowed down. We have ran into some parts issues but other than that it has been full production
Our economy right now with inflation keeping raising its ugly head cannot sustain $100,000 vehicles for every day people, (I owned several of those trucks throughout my career and expeditions, and an Excursion I kept for 10 years) now I have been retired for 17 years and have a F150 xlt that I still have for 21 years . Back in the day, these vehicles were still in a price range with 2 incomes. But to spend a 6 figure and park it my garage, my retirement cannot afford these prices any longer, I can afford the truck but why pay that price when I can do so many other things with the time I have left. Our Country better get its priorities right and reduce our deficit.
