Ford F-150

The Ford F-150 has the only high-strength, military-grade, aluminum-alloy body in its class. A heat-treating process is used to harden the aluminum alloy. Working with aluminum alloy allows an increase in gauge (or thickness) where needed to achieve strength without increasing weight. The lighter aluminum-alloy body and bed produce a higher power-to-weight ratio plus maximum payload and tow ratings that are best in class. Yet another benefit it resistance to dents.

The fully boxed frame is made of more high-strength steel (up to 78 percent) and larger cross sections than the previous-generation frame. And while stronger and more rigid, this frame is also lighter by up to 60 lbs. because many of the components are fabricated using the state-of-the-art roll-forming process that minimizes weight.

F-150 offers a six-engine lineup covering three configurations: naturally aspirated V6 and V8 gas powerplants with advanced twin-independent variable cam timing, turbocharged and direct-injected gas EcoBoost® V6 engines, and 3.0L Power Stroke® Turbo Diesel. Whether you drive an F-150 for work or recreation, there's an engine delivering the performance that's just right for you.

The 3.5L EcoBoost® with 10-speed transmission boasts impressive power ratings of 375 horsepower and best-in-class 470 lb.-ft. of torque, beating out all gas and diesel competitors. This engine delivers the F-150 best-in-class tow rating too. Features include the Ford port-fuel and direct-injection (PFDI) system with two injectors per cylinder ? one in the air intake port, another inside the cylinder to increase performance. Plus twin intercooled turbos for on-demand power with virtually no lag.

3.0L Power Stroke Turbo Diesel. How does class leading in every diesel category sound? 11,400 lbs. towing great news if you tow a lot for work or recreation; 1,940 lbs. payload; 250 horsepower at 3,250 rpm and 440 lb.-ft. of torque at just 1,750 rpm. Plus class-leading EPA-estimated 30 highway mpg fuel economy to go with all that muscle.
