For enhanced safety, the front and rear seat shoulder belts of the Ford F-Super Duty have pretensioners to tighten the seatbelts and eliminate dangerous slack in the event of a collision. The GMC Sierra HD doesn’t offer pretensioners for its rear seat belts.

The F-Super Duty offers optional Post Collision Braking, which automatically apply the brakes in the event of a crash to help prevent secondary collisions and prevent further injuries. The Sierra HD doesn’t offer a post collision braking system: in the event of a collision that triggers the airbags, more collisions are possible without the protection of airbags that may have already deployed.

Over 200 people are killed each year when backed over by motor vehicles. The F-Super Duty offers an optional Reverse Brake Assist that uses rear sensors to monitor for objects to the rear and automatically applies the brakes to prevent a collision. The Sierra HD doesn’t offer backup collision prevention brakes.

Both the F-Super Duty and Sierra HD offer rear cross-traffic warning, but the F-Super Duty with Cross Traffic Alert also has Cross Traffic Braking (automatically applies the brakes) to better prevent a collision when backing near traffic. The Sierra HD’s Rear Cross Traffic Alert doesn’t automatically brake.

The F-Super Duty (except XL/XLT)’s optional driver alert monitor detects an inattentive driver then sounds a warning and suggests a break. According to the NHTSA, drivers who fall asleep cause about 100,000 crashes and 1500 deaths a year. The Sierra HD doesn’t offer a driver alert monitor.

Both the F-Super Duty and the Sierra HD have standard driver and passenger frontal airbags, front side-impact airbags, side-impact head airbags, height adjustable front shoulder belts, four-wheel antilock brakes, traction control, electronic stability systems to prevent skidding, daytime running lights, rearview cameras, available four-wheel drive, crash mitigating brakes, lane departure warning systems, blind spot warning systems and around view monitors.

For better traction, the F-Super Duty has larger standard tires than the Sierra HD (245/75R17 vs. 235/80R17). The F-Super Duty Off-Road’s tires are larger than the largest tires available on the Sierra HD (285/70R17 vs. 275/70R18).

The F-Super Duty’s standard tires provide better handling because they have a lower 75 series profile (height to width ratio) that provides a stiffer sidewall than the Sierra 3500 HD’s standard 80 series tires.

The F-450’s wheels have 10 lugs for longer wheel bearing life, less chance of rotor warping and greater strength. The GMC Sierra HD only has 8 wheel lugs per wheel.

The F-Super Duty’s optional suspension has front and rear stabilizer bars, which help keep the F-Super Duty flat and controlled during cornering. The Sierra HD’s suspension doesn’t offer a rear stabilizer bar.

The front suspension of the F-Super Duty uses coil springs for better ride, handling and control than the Sierra HD, which uses torsion bars in front. Coil springs compress more progressively and offer more suspension travel for a smoother ride with less bottoming out.

For a smoother ride and more stable handling, the F-Super Duty’s wheelbase is longer than on the Sierra HD:

	F-Super Duty	Sierra HD
Extended Cab Long Bed	164.1 inches	162.5 inches
Crew Cab Standard Bed	159.7 inches	158.9 inches
Crew Cab Long Bed	175.9 inches	172 inches

For better handling and stability, the average track (width between the wheels) on the F-Super Duty is 5.7 inches wider in the front and .1 inches wider in the rear than the average track on the Sierra HD.

The F-Super Duty’s standard power windows allow the driver or passenger to lower and raise the windows without leaning over or being distracted. Power windows cost extra on the Sierra HD.

The F-Super Duty’s front power windows open or close with one touch of the switches, making it more convenient at drive-up windows and toll booths, or when talking with someone outside of the car. The Sierra HD’s basic optional power windows’ front passenger window doesn’t close automatically.

The F-Super Duty’s standard power locks allow the driver or passenger to lock or unlock all the doors at a touch without leaning over. Power locks cost extra on the Sierra HD.

In case you lock your keys in your vehicle, or don’t have them with you, you can let yourself in using the F-Super Duty’s available exterior PIN entry system. The Sierra HD doesn’t offer an exterior PIN entry system, and its extra cost OnStar® can’t unlock the doors if the vehicle doesn’t have cell phone reception or the driver can’t contact the service.

The F-Super Duty’s standard speed-sensitive wipers speed up when the vehicle does, so that the driver doesn’t have to continually adjust the speed of the wipers. The Sierra HD’s manually variable intermittent wipers have to be constantly adjusted. The F-Super Duty Lariat/King Ranch/Platinum/Limited’s standard wipers adjust their speed and turn on and off automatically according to the amount of rainfall on the windshield.

To help drivers avoid possible obstacles, the F-Super Duty has standard cornering lights to illuminate around corners when the turn signals are activated. The Sierra HD doesn’t offer cornering lights. The F-Super Duty also offers optional adaptive headlights to illuminate around corners automatically by reading vehicle speed and steering wheel angle.

The F-Super Duty has standard power remote mirrors. The Sierra HD only comes with remote mirrors at extra cost. Without them the driver will have to roll down the windows and reach across the car to adjust the mirrors.

The F-Super Duty’s standard outside mirrors include heating elements to clear off the mirrors for better visibility. GMC charges extra for heated mirrors on the Sierra HD.

The F-Super Duty Platinum/Limited has standard massaging front seats in order to maximize comfort and eliminate fatigue on long trips. Massaging seats aren’t available in the Sierra HD.

To keep a safe, consistent following distance, the F-Super Duty (except XL/XLT) offers an optional Adaptive Cruise Control, which alters the speed of the vehicle without driver intervention. This allows the driver to use cruise control more safely without constantly having to disengage it when approaching slower traffic. The Sierra HD doesn’t offer an adaptive cruise control.
