Are you interested in looking to add a Ford truck to your commercial pickup truck fleet? Tough enough to handle hard jobs yet stylish enough to look good while doing them, the Ford F-150 would make a great addition to your lineup. The Ford F-150 comes in seven different trim levels. The Ford F-150 also has several cab configurations which should allow you to find the perfect truck to meet your unique business needs. While most competitors like to play follow the leader, Ford always makes its way to the front of the pack. Let's check out how we continually edge out the competition.
PERFORMANCE
The Ford F-150 has a six-engine lineup, and all are packed full of power. You have your choice of 3.3-liter V6 and 5.0-liter V8 gas engines with twin-independent variable cam timing. Or choose Twin-turbo gas EcoBoost® V6 offerings of 2.7-liter, 3.5-liter, or high-output 3.5-liter. Also, find the Power Stroke® Turbo Diesel V6. This engine provides powerful performance as well as class-leading EPA-estimated highway fuel economy. F-150 outperforms every other truck in its class when hauling cargo in the bed or towing a trailer.
PAYLOAD
The Ford F-150 sets the standards high when you are checking out light-duty full-size pickup trucks. Its lightweight yet high-strength, military-grade, aluminum-alloy cab, and bed is the same high-grade that is used in military and industrial applications. Reducing weight is an effective way to increase payload, which is exactly what Ford has done with the F-150. Expect a payload of 1,125 to 2,309 depending on which F-150 you choose. Your Ford truck expert will sit down with you to see which F-150 will work best for your needs.
TOWING CAPACITY
Can any other gas or diesel pickup in its class say they can tow more than the F-150? The answer is no. The light aluminum-alloy body and bed produce high power to weight ratio, which allows it to be better at towing. The 3.0-liter Power Stroke Turbo Diesel offers a best in class towing ag 11,400 lbs. While the 3.5-liter EcoBoost twin-turbo V6 has a best in class conventional tow rating of 13,200 pounds. So, the Ford F-150 comes out ahead when it comes to making your life easier when it comes to towing and so much more.
TOWING FEATURES
The Ford F-150 provides trailer sway control as a feature of the AdvanceTrac® with RSC® (Roll Stability Control™) system. Standard as well as is a smart trailer tow connector that alerts to connectivity issues, lighting, and battery problems. More available features to consider are the Pro Trailer Backup Assist™, Dynamic hitch assist with line-of-sight guide, Factory-installed trailer brake controller, BLIS® (Blind Spot Information System) with trailer coverage, and an 8" productivity screen. All of these available features can make the task of towing much easier.
INTERIOR
The Ford F-150 provides lots of places to store things you would prefer to carry inside the cab. Stow items in the door-trim panel bins as well as the glove box. There's even space for a laptop inside the available flow-through center console. The Ford F-150 SuperCab and SuperCrew® models feature a fully flat rear load floor with under-seat storage.
EXTERIOR
Be more aware of your surroundings when you buy a Ford F-150. The optional 360-Degree Camera with Split-View Display provides you with a bird' s-eye view of the area around your truck. With four exterior cameras, it allows you to see all sides of your Ford F-150 by stitching the four images together. It also includes a dynamic hitch assist feature which provides a sight line to help you direct your hitch ball to your trailer tongue.
