Top 6 Reasons to Test-Drive the 2020 Ford F-150

Decades ago, pickup trucks were once known as box-shaped towing machines that although served a functional purpose, offered very little to please the eyes. But this changed dramatically in recent years and it could not be more obvious when looking at the 2020 Ford F150. More than just a great utility vehicle, it is a luxury machine built to deliver power, comfort, and style. Keep reading to learn more about this award-winning pickup truck and why you should consider taking one for a spin.
 

Great Engines and Great Performance

The 2020 F-150 offers a few different options of high-performance engines, six to be exact. The base engine is a V6-290 horsepower that’s naturally aspirated. Moving up from this is the turbocharged EcoBoost V6s that are available with 325 and 375 horsepower. The high-output turbo V6 engine tops out the group of six-cylinder engines and boasts a monstrous 450 horsepower, while the V8 engine carries with it 395 horsepower. A 250 horsepower turbodiesel engine is also available.

Great Mileage

As far as gas mileage goes, the 2020 F150 has one of the best ratings in its class. The base engine averaged 19 mpg on city roads and 25 mpg during highway driving; the smaller EcoBoost engine did slightly better with 20 mpg and 26 mpg on city and highway driving (respectively). The V8 engines also performed well for its class with 17 mpg and 23 mpg on city and highway roads.

Luxury Interior Design

The 2020 F150 offers plenty of room for all passengers and delivers comfortable seating no matter where you are sitting. The seats are plush and made of high-quality materials, while the interior design is elegant and smart.

Gorgeous Exterior

To put it bluntly, this is a gorgeous pickup truck. It’s big and bold, but the lines and contours give it an aesthetically pleasing appearance. If you’re looking for a pickup truck that turns heads and can get the job done, the 2020 F150 rises to the occasion.

Excellent Towing Capacity

The 2020 F150 is more than just a great-looking pickup truck, it lives up to the expectations one has of a Ford truck. The turbo V6 engine packs enough muscle and leads its class with a towing capacity of 13,200 pounds. The V8 or high-end V6 can tow an impressive 7000 pounds without the extra trailer tow feature. Needless to say, the 2020 F150 delivers on appearance and functionality.

Top of the Line Infotainment

The 2020 F150 comes equipped with an excellent infotainment system that features Bluetooth connectivity and onboard navigation. The pièce de résistance of this system is the SYNC connectivity feature, which includes voice activation on various functions including the SYNC 3 infotainment system. Also included is an eight-inch touch screen, and a top-shelf audio system from Bang & Olufsen. The infotainment system is compatible with Apple and Android devices and allows for a Wi-Fi hot spot.
