Ford F-150

Ford is showing off a very cool option that will be available in some versions of the 2021 F-150 pickup. The new feature, called Max Recline Seats, is designed to give owners a place to nap between job sites or when camping.

With the delivery of its first 2021 F-150 pickups just around the corner, Ford has shared official specs for the payload and towing capacities for the truck, and each of its six available engines. The entry-level version of the 2021 F-150 uses a 3.3-liter V6 engine offering 1,985 lb.

June 25th, 2020 is a big day for Ford F-150 fans as the new version of the popular truck will be unveiled in full for the first time. Ahead of that official reveal, Ford is teasing with an image on Facebook that shows the 2021 F-150 pulling a boat out of the lake.

Ford has already told us that it’s serious about getting into electric vehicles, and is even planning on building an all-electric version of its popular F-150 pickup truck. Now, Ford is showing off a prototype of its electric F-150 by putting it to the test in a towing challenge.

Before we get too far into this review, a little transparency first. For the last year, I’ve been writing my second book – about the history of the Ford F-Series pickup. So when I got the 2019 version of America’s best-selling vehicle to drive, I was excited.

Roush has announced a new truck package that takes the normal Ford F-150 up several notches. The truck is called the F-150 SC, and its big feature is a Roush TVS R2650 supercharger that sits atop the truck’s 5.0L V8 engine.

Among the numerous custom cars and trucks at SEMA 2018, Hennessey Performance turned up with its 2019 VelociRaptor V8. The performance tuners tore out the stock EcoBoost V6 engine and put a 5.0-liter V8 with a 2.9-liter supercharger under the hood.

“It’s about damn time,” should have been Ford’s product punchline for the F-150 Power Stroke pickup, because every time I spoke with someone about this diesel V6 option, they said the exact same thing. No comments on the color.

First let’s get one thing cleared up right off the bat, this isn’t a truck review. It’s an engine review. Because nothing – not a single bolt, body panel, or switch – on the F-150 has changed except for the turbocharged 3.0L V6 oil burner that’s under the hood.

Ford has gone and done something that will make truck buyers who fancy diesel power and fuel economy very happy. The new 3.0-liter Power Stroke diesel engine has been announced and it has an EPA rating of 30 mpg on the highway.

Remember the step-side Splash edition of the Ford Ranger, with its bright yellow paint scheme and vibrant 90s era “splashed” decal accents? Yeah, forget that noise. None of that crap will be getting brought back on the reborn 2019 version of the pickup, and in their place buyers are sure to find a far more focused machine.

During the recent SEMA 2017 show, Hennessey Performance announced an epic new truck – the $349,000 VelociRaptor 6×6. This truck is a heavily modified version of the new Ford F-150 Raptor. The modifications include heavy duty 20″ off-road wheels and tires, custom bumpers, LED lights, and most notably a duo of axles in back.

The current generation Ford F-150 Raptor is already an amazing off-road performance truck. But as Shelby has been known to do, they couldn’t just leave things there, and decided to amp the Raptor up even more.

The 2017 Ford F-150 Raptor is a truly impressive off-road truck. One of the most critical components to its capabilities are its Fox Racing dampers. These shocks offer up an astounding 13″ of travel up front, and 13.9″ in the rear, and feature a clever internal-bypass design which works equally as well on or off-road.

Ford has unveiled a new version of the F-150 truck made specifically for police responders. The truck is based on the F-150 FX4 and is called the F-150 Police Responder. Ford says that the truck is built specifically with pursuits in mind, and is equipped with a special police brake system with upgraded calipers and friction materials.
