It gets me from point a to point b. It is older and needs to be updated. Otherwise, it works great!
It is reliable and we do some work with it. Overall, it is a good vehicle.

I wouldn't want anyone else to run into it - this truck would win. It is a bit of a tank but it works for everything we needed it for.
I like the overall size, hauling capacity and truck bed/cover options. My only real dislike is that I would love extra seating - more cab space
accountCircle Stacie H
For a big diesel truck, it gets decent mileage. I feel very safe in it. I can haul or carry just about anything.
I love my truck, and I wouldn't want any other. I have owned it for five years, but it has been in the family since the day it rolled off the train from Detroit.

That the glow plugs can go out if you don't properly let them warm up.
I haven't had many problems with my truck. I have had a bit of a transmission issue but it was easily fixed.
accountCircle Fred W
It's tough. Can pull a house.
Has 7.3 desire engine with large turbo. I love the way the truck sounds as I pass everyone. My truck can pull almost anything. Very happy with it
accountCircle Melvin H

Ford pickup review of F350 with a V10 motor.
Very few problems. Door locks were repaired at 150 each. Windows stopped working and repaired at 150 per window. Nice ride.
accountCircle Bob W
The 7. 3 Ford is as tough as they come.
It is very durable, roomy inside, and very rarely breaks down. The 7. 3 diesel motor lasts a very long time. You can also use it to create your own business and make money from it. You can also use it to help your friends and family move and purchase large items that will not fit in a car.

7.3 diesel super duty f250 2001.
I own a super duty diesel f250 2001 and I think it performs well, it is costly to maintain because of it being a diesel. It is been a fairly reliable truck, comfort is decent and it is features are a bit outdated because of it being an older truck. I do like that it is 4x4 and I can haul trailers because of 7.3 diesel motor.

Bad brake system on Ford f-250.
I have problems with the brakes all the time. My husband changes them frequently. Also both back doors will not open now. Truck shakes when driving it, I assume from the brakes. Abs light stays on even after testing to see why it's on, with no success. Truck has been a lemon ever since we purchased it.
accountCircle Carol M
Disc brakes and bad back doors.
Always have problems, constantly replacing brakes. Both back doors will not open. Also disc brakes burn up. Truck shakes driving down road. Right passenger side window sometimes will not go up. Always smell a burning smell and tire wheel smokes and gets excessively hot.

My Ford Truck can pull & haul more than your truck!
My 2001 Ford F-250 is a nice driving truck that hauls a large slide in camper & pulls a boat at the same time with strength & horsepower. It is a comfortable ride with nice cloth seats & a large back seat.
accountCircle Pamela M
It is dependable and tough.
The truck is too big and needs new seat belts. The cab door is broke and it cost too much to fill up with gas.

Fun to drive monster truck.
So much fun to drive. Lifted and super diesel motor. Big tires. Everyone gets out of your way driving this truck. Pick up makes it nice to go to garage sales. So much fun to drive.

Is The 2001 Ford Super Duty F-250 A Good Car?

Yes, it gets me from point a to b, handles all the towing capacities asked of it, for a diesel it gets fairly good gas mileage and it's big
Pamela H.
Yes. Love it. Diesel powered. Lots of room with the super cab setup. Added extra lights and larger tires. Will pretty much pull anything. Will load up well
Kimberly W.

How Reliable Is The 2001 Ford Super Duty F-250?

It is mostly reliable, we have put lots of miles and strain on it and therefore have done quite a bit of work on it and spent lots of money. Right now it only has a small oil leak
Linda J.
It is old now. Left front power window motor replacement. High pressure oil pump has been replaced. Normal oil changes. Been a good vehicle.
Mike P.

Is The 2001 Ford Super Duty F-250 A Good Value?

$14000. It has been a good vehicle and so much fun to drive. The large wheels and tires will pretty much allow it to go anywhere with the four wheel drive setting.
