If you are looking into buying a new truck in Corvallis, OR, the F-150 is worth considering.
Design and Features
Poised to make an impression, the new Ford F-150 comes with a refreshed design that is both rugged and modern. The front grille is bolder, the LED headlights give a sleek and powerful look, and the fender molds add a touch of aggression. The truck's body is constructed from high-strength, military-grade aluminum alloy, reducing weight and enhancing durability.
This truck has up to 11 exterior color options, ranging from classic Black Metallic to bold Antimatter Blue Metallic. For adventure enthusiasts from Eugene to Newport, the Raptor and Raptor R Trims have a Shelter Green hue to elicit the spirit of off-roading.
Inside, the F-150 offers a spacious, comfortable, functional, stylish cabin. It can seat up to five people, and the rear seats can be folded to create extra storage space. The mobile office lets you work with a large center console that can accommodate a laptop and plenty of storage options for your gadgets. The SYNC 4 infotainment system comes with an all-new 12-inch touchscreen display that allows you to control various functions of the truck, including navigation and audio.
Performance
Under the hood, the new Ford F-150 offers a range of engine options to suit different needs and preferences. The base model has a 2.7-liter Ecoboost V6 engine, two injectors per cylinder, and on-demand twin intercooled turbochargers. It delivers 325 horsepower and 400 pound-feet of torque, making it a capable option for everyday driving and light-hauling tasks.
If you prefer off-roading, you can equip the Raptor with the 5.2L Supercharged V8 that kicks out 720 horsepower and 640 pound-feet of torque. There is no terrain in Albany, OR that this beast can't conquer. The luxurious King Ranch and Platinum trims have hybrid powertrain options, combining a 3.5-liter V6 engine with an electric motor to deliver impressive fuel efficiency without compromising performance.
There are up to six powertrain options for customization, depending on your needs and preferences. You can go full electric with the Lightning to reduce your carbon footprint and save on fuel costs.
Regarding towing and hauling capabilities, the F-150 doesn't disappoint either. It has a maximum towing capacity of 13,500 pounds and a maximum payload capacity of 2,445 pounds. You can press and hold the available Pro Trailer Hitch Assist to automatically back up and position your trailer.
Off-Roading Capability
The available Terrain Management System allows you to choose from eight drive modes: Rock Crawl, Baja, Off-Roading, Slippery, etc. Each mode adjusts the truck's transmission shift points, throttle response, and traction control to optimize performance in outdoor driving conditions.
On top of that, features such as Hill Descent Control, Trail Control, and electronic-locking rear differential make tackling rough terrain a breeze. The Raptor also has long-travel suspension, skid plates, and beadlock-capable wheels for added off-roading confidence.
Safety Features
The Ford Co-Pilot360 suite plays a crucial role in enhancing safety, offering features like pre-collision assist with automatic emergency braking, which helps prevent accidents before they happen. You also get a blind-spot information system, lane-keeping assist, and adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go technology.
