Designed especially for the luxury personal recreational vehicle market and serious towing hobbyists, including those who tow horse trailers or race cars, the 2001 F-650 Super CrewZer™ is a multipurpose vehicle that rounds out the already broad Built Ford Tough F-Series lineup.
“Personal recreational vehicle customers and high-end towing hobbyists spend a lot of time in their vehicles,” said Larry Savage, Ford Division chassis cab marketing manager. “These customers want the ability to carry passengers comfortably, along with a substantial cargo load on the vehicle. So, they want creature comforts and lots of power, payload and towing capability.”
