The Ford F-650 Super Duty was named Work Truck's Medium-Duty Truck of the Year for 2020.

Selected from a field of 18 tough contenders, Work Truck readers selected the Ford F-650 as the truck that best fit their fleet requirements, including application effectiveness, durability, quality, servicing, maintenance, and lifecycle costs.

“It is an honor to accept the Medium-Duty Truck of the Year Award for the Built Ford Tough F-650 chassis cab. This award has special significance to us because we know the winning truck is selected by the folks who rely on it to get their jobs done. They vote for the truck they can count on to perform day in and day out, to stand up to whatever they put it through and then come back for more the next day," said Mark Buzzell, director, Ford North American Fleet, Lease, and Remarketing Operations. "The fact that fleet managers have chosen Ford trucks to win this award more times than any other manufacturer tells us that our dedication to building and consistently improving our own powertrains and trucks is paying off where it really matters — at work for our customers."

The award was presented at The Work Truck Show 2020 on March 3.

"Ford’s F-650 Super Duty is a hardworking truck and incredibly deserving of the 2020 Medium-Duty Truck of the year award. This is truly a fleet-focused award, with our Work Truck readers naming Ford No. 1 in 2020," said Sherb Brown, publisher of Work Truck magazine and president of Bobit Business Media.

This is the seventh time Ford has been honored with a Work Truck magazine truck of the year award.
