The Rostra 250-1837 is a precision-engineered, complete aftermarket electronic cruise control system designed specifically for 2017 and newer Ford F-250, F-350, F-450, and F-550 Super Duty cab & chassis trucks equipped with the 6.8L engine. Tailored to add automated speed management to commercial and fleet work trucks that did not come with factory cruise control, this kit allows you to set your desired speed seamlessly using an intuitive steering column-mounted control switch. Once engaged, the system interfaces directly with the vehicle's electronic throttle system to maintain a consistent cruising pace, effectively reducing driver fatigue and helping to optimize fuel economy on long highway hauls.
Engineered with custom pedal bypass connections, the 250-1837 provides a clean, all-electronic installation under the driver's dash without requiring mechanical cables. The included control stalk mounts neatly to the steering column shroud for an OEM-style finish, offering intuitive functions including set speed, coast/reduce speed, resume/accelerate, and precise tap-up/tap-down adjustments of 1 mph per tap. Built for demanding commercial usage, this kit delivers consistent performance and long-lasting reliability.
