How Much Does a Fully Loaded 2023 Ford F-450 Cost?
When it comes to Ford’s lineup of F-Series pickups, its F-450 model doesn’t get much attention, probably because it’s so expensive. However, if you’re interested in a Super-Duty truck from Ford, this is precisely the one you should check out. So, how much will each trim cost you, and what is the price of a fully loaded 2023 Ford F-450?Â

Which F-450 trim offers the best value?
Having all the features you could possibly get for the F-450 is excellent, but spending well over $100,000 isn’t exactly a sound financial decision for most people. So, which trim should you get?Â
There are a couple of good options for trims on this model. First, the base offers a powerful engine and a good handful of features for just under $60,000, making it a prime choice for those who aren’t looking for much.
The other trim that seems like a good value is the Lariat. For a little under $80,000 (to start), you get the onboard generator, which is helpful for going off-grid. It also has several standard features that could make your pickup well worth the money.Â
The 2023 Ford F-450 has plenty of trims to choose from, each one offering something for everyone. Still, the trim that will cost you the most is the Limited, which can run you about $112,000 once you add all the goodies to it.
