Ford is planning to raise prices on its biggest trucks barely a month after their arrival at dealers. According to a letter sent to dealers, the brand's lineup of 2022 F-Series Super Duty trucks will soon see a $250 price increase across the board.
The move comes in what the brand calls a "competitive pricing action" that will go into effect on August 23. That gives buyers less than a week to buy pickups like the F-250 or F-350 at current prices. The popular F-150 will not be affected.
Price hikes aren't unheard of, but it's unusual to see MSRPs go up immediately after a model's arrival. 2022 F-250 pricing currently starts at $36,645 with destination, with the F-350 and F-450 starting at $38,160 and $52,825, respectively.
In the big scheme of things, an extra $250 may seem like a drop in the bucket since a chip shortage has resulted in higher car prices. With the prospect of dealer markups and no cash incentives, Super Duty buyers will likely pay a premium.
Ford prices have seen a significant amount of volatility. In June, Ford raised prices on nearly its entire lineup. Around the same time, the brand quietly eliminated many offers in favor of trade-in incentives many buyers may not be eligible for.
