2026 Ford Super Duty AEV FX370: More Affordable, Still Adventure-Ready
The latest Ford HD truck AEV package offers plenty of capability with more daily drivability.
If you want one of the best, most rugged adventure-ready off-road trucks offered in the U.S., then chances are you’re going to seek out something outfitted by American Expedition Vehicles, or AEV. The flip side is vehicles like the Ford Super Duty AEV FXL, AEV’s first-ever Ford build that it debuted early this year, often sacrifice some daily-driver comfort in pursuit of max attack off-road capability. That’s where a truck like the new AEV FX370 comes in, a package created for the 2026-and-newer Ford Super Duty that offers all the build quality and off-road prowess AEV is known for, but backs it down just enough to make it more livable and affordable than the more extreme FXL.

Starts Under $20,000 (Plus the Truck)
As a reminder, the FXL package for the 2026-and-newer Super Duty packs in some really great equipment, including AEV-tuned Bilstein dampers, a 4-inch-lift DualSport suspension, special AEV bumpers, and a set of 40x13.50R18 HD-Terrain KT tires on AEV’s 18-inch Katmai DualSport wheels. It’s a package that starts at $25,999 on top of the price of any 2026 Ford F-250 or F-350 with 4WD, regardless of engine or trim. If you buy a 2026 F-250 XL 4WD with an 8-foot bed and the 6.8-liter gasoline V-8, for example, that brings the total starting cost of the FXL-equipped truck to $77,559.
The new FX370 starts six grand cheaper at $19,999. That means you could order the same base-level F-250 XL 4WD and have an AEV Super Duty for $71,559. Of course, most prospective owners probably won’t opt to install either kit on a base model Ford HD truck, but that’s also part of the beauty of AEV’s engineering—you have that choice.
You’re Getting Your Money’s Worth
So, what are you getting for that $19,999? At the heart of the FX370 is its 37-inch BFGoodrich All-Terrain KO3 tires on AEV’s 18-inch Salta XD wheels enabled by the suspension that makes installing the 37s possible without cutting sheetmetal: the 4-inch DualSport RT suspension. The package uses AEV-tuned Bilstein dampers and is designed to support handling and ride quality across multiple terrains, including urban streets and highways, yet still provides the clearance needed for such a tall tire to articulate properly.
Next, you’ll find a winch-capable AEV heavy-duty front bumper that’s ready for your winch of choice and remains usable for job site and commercial applications. The matching high-clearance rear bumper offers off-road protection and improved departure angles without sacrificing towing and work functionality. Finally, you’ll get a graphics package and AEV-embroidered headrests so others will know your lifted Super Duty isn’t a toy but a serious piece of equipment.
Coming Soon
If you’re thinking that sounds a lot like the FXL but with smaller tires, wheels that aren’t beadlock-capable, and no fender flares, you’re not wrong. That similarity is also why the FX370 is such a compelling package: It retains much of the FXL’s off-road capability but offers better livability at a lower price.
The AEV FX370 package for the 2026 Super Duty is available to preorder now, with additional options coming to tailor it to your needs.
