2026 Ford F-350 Chassis XL: The Ultimate Foundation for Northern Michigan Hard Work
For the professionals and landowners in Kingsley, MI, work doesn't stop just because the pavement ends or the weather turns. Whether you are managing a growing agricultural operation or coordinating a specialized fleet, you need a platform that is as resilient as the northern Michigan landscape. This 2026 Ford F-350 Chassis XL Crew Cab in Oxford White is engineered to be that foundation, offering the blank canvas of a chassis cab with the heavy-duty reinforcements required for the most demanding regional industries. From the timber stands near Hardwood Acres, MI to the fruit orchards of the peninsula, this truck provides the structural integrity and raw power necessary to move your business forward.
Uncompromising Diesel Performance and Capability
At the heart of this workhorse lies the legendary Powerstroke 6.7L V-8 diesel direct injection engine. This DEVCT intercooled turbo diesel powerhouse is designed for longevity and relentless torque, delivering 330HP to handle heavy loads across the rolling terrain of Garfield Township, MI. The engine is supported by an Iron engine block for maximum durability and includes an Engine retarder system to assist with controlled descents when hauling heavy equipment.
Power is managed by the TorqShift 10-speed automatic transmission, featuring Selectable mode transmission settings and SelectShift Sequential shift control for precise gear management. The Four Wheel Drive system utilizes an Electronic transfer case shift and Auto locking hub control, ensuring you can transition from highway speeds to muddy job sites without hesitation. To keep the powertrain running at peak efficiency during long workdays, the F-350 is equipped with a Transmission oil cooler and a Heavy-duty lead acid battery. The chassis is further bolstered by a Firm ride suspension featuring a Mono-beam rigid axle front suspension and a DANA M300 rigid axle rear suspension with Leaf spring rear suspension, providing a stable platform for whatever custom body you choose to install.
Modern Connectivity for the Modern Job Site
Efficiency in the field requires more than just mechanical strength; it requires staying connected. This XL trim is equipped with the SYNC 4 handsfree wireless device connectivity system, allowing you to manage logistics and calls without taking your hands off the Urethane steering wheel. The interior features a Digital/analog instrumentation display with a 4.20-inch gauge cluster display, supplemented by an 8 inch primary display with Primary monitor touchscreen capabilities.
Staying online in rural areas is made easier with the 5G Modem - Ford Connectivity Package mobile hotspot internet access, ensuring your crew can access digital blueprints or work orders from almost anywhere. The system also includes Smart device wireless mirroring and SYNC 4 voice activated audio controls, keeping your focus on the road. With 2 USB ports and SYNC 4 external memory control, your tech is always charged and integrated into your daily workflow.
A Practical and Spacious Crew Cab Interior
The interior of this F-350 is designed for the reality of northern Michigan work life, featuring Medium Dark Slate vinyl front seat upholstery and Full vinyl floor covering. This setup is ideal for those coming in from the fields in Acme, MI, as it allows for quick and easy cleaning after a muddy day. The 40-20-40 split-bench front seat and 60-40 folding rear seats provide a Seating capacity of 6, making it easy to transport a full crew to the job site.
Comfort and convenience are prioritized through Manual climate control with Rear under seat climate control ducts to keep the entire cab comfortable in all seasons. The driver benefits from Manual driver seat lumbar support and 4-way directional controls for those long drives between job sites. Practical storage solutions abound, including Overhead console storage, Front seat armrest storage, and 8 beverage holders. Additional interior highlights include Power door locks with 2 stage unlocking, Power windows, and Remote keyless entry for seamless access during a busy workday.
Advanced Safety and Driver Assistance
Safety on the road is paramount, especially when operating a heavy-duty chassis cab. The 2026 F-350 is equipped with Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB), a forward collision mitigation system designed to help prevent or lessen the impact of potential accidents. The Lane Departure Warning system provides an extra layer of protection during long hauls on the highway.
The vehicle is built with a comprehensive 6 airbag system, including the Safety Canopy System curtain first and second-row overhead airbags. Braking is handled by a robust 4-wheel disc brake system with Four channel ABS brakes and Brake assist. For those navigating steep driveways or hilly terrain, Hill Start Assist helps prevent rolling when transitioning from the brake to the accelerator. The SecuriLock immobilizer and Ford Security Package security system provide peace of mind when the truck is parked at a remote job site or a local trailhead.
Functional Exterior and Durable Design
The exterior of this F-350 is finished in a clean Oxford White Non-metallic paint, accented by a Black grille and Black front bumper. It sits on 17 x 6.5-inch front and dual rear polished forged aluminum wheels, providing the stability and weight distribution that only Dual rear wheels can offer. Accessing the cab is made simple with the factory-installed Platform Running Boards.
Visibility is enhanced by Halogen headlights with Autolamp auto on/off headlight control and Daytime running lights. The Manual extendable trailer mirrors feature Heated door mirrors and Turn signal indicator in door mirrors, ensuring you have a clear view of your surroundings even in frosty conditions.
