When you’re looking for a pickup truck, whether it’s a daily workhorse or a luxurious family hauler, there’s a 2019 Ford F-150 for you. Offered in XL, XLT, Lariat, King Ranch, Platinum, Limited, and the off-road specialist Raptor trim levels, and with six engines, three cab styles, and three bed sizes, the F-150 covers all bases.
Exterior Features
Depending on the model, you can choose a Regular two-door cab or a four-door SuperCab with a standard 6.5-foot standard bed or an 8-foot long bed. Alternatively, the spacious SuperCrew cab is available with a standard bed or a 5.5-foot short bed.
The XL trim offers the bold grille in black, daytime running lights, black bumpers, 17-inch steel wheels, and a cargo light. XLT models add chrome bumpers and grille bars, fog lights, and alloy wheels. Stepping up to the Lariat gets you heated power side mirrors with turn signals, 18-inch wheels, LED bed lights, and a sliding rear windshield.
King Ranch adds LED quad beam headlights, LED fog lights, mirror-mounted LED spotlights, side steps, and a power sliding rear windshield. Platinum trims feature color-keyed bumpers, 20-inch wheels, and power retractable running boards. The rugged Raptor offers skid plates, 17-inch wheels with all-terrain tires beneath flared fenders, and unique styling cues and badges.
Power and Performance
Your choice of engines begins with a 290 horsepower 3.3-liter V-6 delivering 265 pound-feet of torque to the rear or all four wheels. The available turbocharged 2.7-liter V-6 engine delivers 325 horsepower and 400 pound-feet of torque. A 395 horsepower 5.0-liter V-8 produces 400 pound-feet of torque.
A turbocharged 3.5-liter V-6 delivers 375 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque, while a boosted version gives you 450 horsepower and 510 pound-feet of torque. You also have the option of a turbocharged 3.0-liter V-6 diesel, which delivers 250 horsepower and 440 pound-feet of torque.
All engines, except the base V-6 which has a six-speed automatic, are mated to a 10-speed automatic transmission. For combined driving, the gas engines return 19 to 22 miles per gallon. The F-150 has a maximum payload of 3,270 pounds and, when properly equipped, a towing capacity of up to 13,200 pounds.
