Performance

The XL is powered by a standard 6.8-liter V8 gas engine rated at 400 horsepower and 445 lb-ft of torque, with an upgrade option to a 7.3-liter V8 producing 430 horsepower and 485 lb-ft of torque. The Power Stroke diesel is available for the most towing muscle: the standard diesel produces 475 horsepower and 1,050 lb-ft of torque; the high-output diesel puts out 500 horsepower and 1,200 lb-ft of torque.

The Platinum shares much of the same engine palette but does not offer the 6.8-liter gas engine. Instead, the Platinum comes standard with the 7.3-liter gas engine and a standard 4X4 drivetrain.

The XL's straightforward, rugged styling emphasizes utility. It has standard steel wheels and telescoping tow mirrors for heavy-duty use.

The Platinum offers upscale visuals with exclusive styling and 20-inch alloy wheels. It upgrades lighting to LED projector headlamps and LED taillights, while the XL uses halogen headlamps.
