You can do many fantastic things with a new Ford F-150 pickup truck. Here are four reasons why you may want to buy it.
Off-Roading
From dusty trails to rugged paths beyond the city streets, the Ford F-150 has what it takes to explore risky terrain. If you want to dominate the off-road with a Ford F-150, any model is a winner, but the best trucks for off-road enthusiasts are the Ford F-150 Tremor and Raptor. The Ford F-150 Tremor brings power; it comes equipped with skid plates, trail control, all-terrain tires, and other robust features for the trails. As for the Ford Raptor, it has even better off-road features, so it costs more. It boasts heavy-duty skid plates, sports-tuned shocks, 35-inch, all-terrain tires, and a powerful high-output engine.
Travel and Conserve Fuel
There are two F-150 models that shine in this category. One model is a hybrid, and the other is an EV. The new Ford F-150 Hybrid is a worthy investment if you're a hybrid fan. However, it's not an official member of the Ford F-150 lineup. To acquire a new Ford F-150 hybrid, you'll have to buy a F-150 model and equip it with a hybrid engine.
The Ford F-150 EV is known as the Lightning and is an official member of the lineup. This version of the F-150 is more expensive. It comes equipped with many fantastic, high-tech features.
If you don't know which model is best for you, here's what you'll need to consider. A hybrid Ford F-150 can go the distance because it boasts a combustion engine and an electric engine, so it's the superior model from a travel standpoint. Both engines give the F-150 hybrid a 700-mile range, which is far better than the Lightning's 300-mile range.
Although the Lightning cannot go the distance like the Ford F-150 hybrid, it does have unique capabilities that overshadow the hybrid. The Lightning's most innovative feature is its engine. It's not just a typical electric engine for one reason: it can be a backup power source. It can be very useful at a campsite or during a power outage.
Tow and Haul Equipment
All Ford F-150 trucks have what it takes to haul equipment to and from different destinations. However, the best models for daily jobs are the XL, SXT, and XLT. All of these trucks are equipped with the staples, and they are reasonably priced. If you need a model with staples and a bit more, you can't go wrong with a Ford F-150 Lariat, King Ranch, or Premium. In this group, the Lariat is the least expensive model, and the Premium is the most expensive.
Command the Road with Tactical Navigation Tools
With a Ford F-150, you get many cutting-edge travel solutions. The most interesting feature is a system called BlueCruise. BlueCruise is Ford's brand-new take on cruise control. When activated, it takes total control of the wheel, but it will only work on compatible highways in the United States.
In addition to BlueCruise, the Ford F-150 comes equipped with Pro Trailer Hitch Assist and Pro Trailer Backup Assist. Both of these systems are designed to make towing jobs easier.
