Built Tough for the Road Ahead

A vehicle's strength begins with its outer shell. The 2018 Ford F-150 was built with a high-strength, military-grade, aluminum-alloy body. This replaced the conventional steel that was in the cab and bed of previous models, making this year's model a stronger yet lighter truck. The new design has the truck weighing up to 700 pounds less than the previous generation. This results in many benefits, including:

• A great power-to-weight ratio
• Enhanced fuel efficiency
• Higher maximum payload and tow ratings
• Resistance to dents and corrosion

Ford F-150 Performance

The 2018 Ford F-150 comes with an advanced powertrain lineup that demonstrates its vigor. It has five different impressive engine options...

• 3.5L EcoBoost® V6: 375 horsepower and 470 lb-ft of torque
• 2.7L EcoBoost® V6: 325 horsepower and 400 lb-ft of torque

• 3.5L high-output Raptor EcoBoost® V6: 450 horsepower and 510 lb-ft of torque

Additionally, it offers a new 3.0L Power Stroke® turbo diesel V6 that'll produce great horsepower and torque, and make the F-150 more fuel-efficient.
