American Expedition Vehicles (AEV) has unveiled a second off-road package for the Ford Super Duty, called the FX370. This truck runs 37-inch tires rather than the 40-inch rubber on AEV's flagship FXL package revealed earlier this year.
The FX370 positions itself as a more accessible entry point into extreme Super Duty modification. While specifics on suspension geometry, bumper design, and drivetrain enhancements remain limited in the available details, the tire size drop signals AEV's intent to balance serious off-road capability with practicality and cost considerations.
Ford's Super Duty platform continues attracting premium aftermarket builders. The truck's powerful diesel engines, robust frame, and towing capacity make it a natural canvas for builders targeting adventure-focused buyers. AEV's dual-package approach mirrors broader market segmentation: affluent buyers wanting maximum tire clearance and aggressive stance gravitate toward the FXL, while those seeking genuine off-road performance without the visual extremism or premium pricing opt for the FX370.
The 37-inch tire size matters more than spec sheets suggest. It sits between stock Super Duty setups and AEV's 40-inch package, offering meaningful ground clearance improvement while maintaining more reasonable ride heights and fuel economy penalties. Real-world articulation and approach angles likely improve substantially over factory hardware, but the truck avoids the unwieldy proportions that turn heads at fuel pumps.
AEV's second-tier positioning reflects changing buyer priorities. Not every Super Duty owner needs maximum visual drama. Many prioritize capability for genuine backcountry work, overlanding, and serious towing in remote terrain without sacrificing daily usability. The FX370 targets that demographic.
Ford's partnership dynamics with premium builders like AEV extend the Super Duty's appeal
