Engine Options & Performance

The Ford F-150 is known for its durable performance and the 2019 F-150 is no exception. It’s getting more difficult than ever for the competition to try and keep up with the F-150 on the performance front. The 2019 F-150 offers a lineup of six engines covering three configurations: a naturally aspirated V6 and V8 gas powerplants with twin-independent variable cam timing, the turbocharged gas EcoBoost^® V6, and the Power Stroke^® Turbo Diesel V6. The Turbo Diesel V6 option provides all the power you need and you’ll enjoy the improved fuel economy as well, making it a great option for frequent long hauls. Thanks to the aluminum-alloy body and bed, the 2019 F-150 offers best-in-class towing and payload capabilities – making the toughest of jobs look easy. A 10-speed automatic transmission with the choice of 5 Drive Modes ensure you’ll get the most of your F-150 no matter what terrain you have to tackle.

Style Packages

The 2019 Ford F-150 comes with eleven unique style packages, each offering special wheel options, body-colors, and interior features. Options for wheels include your choice from 17-inch wheels to 20 inch chrome PVD aluminum wheels. You can customize your exterior wtih chrome features throughout the body, and make a statement on the inside from Cloth to Camelback Unique leather-trimmed bucket seats. Whether you want a little more pop on your Truck or more of a simplistic look, there is a trim for you.

Technology

We are all looking for ways to be more efficient and practical, & advanced technology is often used to accomplish it. FordPass™ is the one-stop app that can help you move more freely throughout your day. The app helps you find parking, reserve and pay ahead of time for food, compare fuel prices at stations along your route, receive key vehicle info and schedule service, lock, unlock and start your vehicle remotely and more! The available FordPass™ Connect gives you in-vehicle Wi-Fi as well, so your passengers can stay connected on the road. The available 360-Degree Camera with Split-View Display* enables you to see all sides of your truck by displaying them on a center stack screen. It’s useful when maneuvering in tight spaces or off-road trails, but perhaps the best feature is the dynamic hitch assist that provides a sight line to help you connect your hitch ball to the trailer receiver. When it comes to deciding on your next truck, don’t decide to go with one that only delivers ‘the best’ in one category, get a truck that offers the best in every single aspect from power to style to technology.

2019 Ford Ranger vs 2019 Ford F-150 at Tindol Ford

Apr 18, 2019 in 2019 Ford F-150

2019 F-150 vs. Ranger: Which Truck is Right for You?

Ford has recently brought back the Ranger, a midsize pickup truck, to complement the full-size F-150. This gives Ford truck buyers some extra variety and something to choose if a regular F-150 happens to be a little bigger or a little more pricey than you'd like. Both trucks are good options if you want a tough, dependable pickup truck that can get you and your cargo to your destination, so finding the right truck depends on what you need. Power and Towing Both the 2019 Ranger and 2019 F-150 lead their classes in some categories, but how do they stack up against each other? The Ford F-150 comes with a total of six engine options, including an efficient EcoBoost V-6, a powerful V-8, a diesel engine, and a performance engine for the F-150 Raptor. The Ranger only comes with a single engine, a 2.3-liter I-4, but it's able to get 270 horsepower out of that engine. The F-150 can tow over 11,000 pounds with the diesel and V-8 engines depending on the configuration, and the Ranger tows up to 7,500 pounds. Configurations The 2019 F-150 can come with a one-row Regular Cab, a Super Cab with two rows and half rear doors, and the SuperCrew with two full sets of doors and enough room to comfortably seat adults in the back. The Ranger comes with its own Super Cab and SuperCrew sizes, but the dimensions are smaller to match the smaller truck. The F-150 box can be 5.5, 6.5, or 8 feet in length, and the Ranger offers 5 and 6-foot models. Both trucks can have a 2x4 or 4x4 drivetrain. more Safety Both Ford pickup trucks offer a wide range of safety and driver assistance features, but the Ford Ranger is the only 2019 model to come with Ford Co-Pilot360. Co-Pilot360 is a package that combines several important safety features, including the Blind Spot Information System with Cross-Traffic Alert, the Pre Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking, automatic high beams, a rearview camera, and the Lane-Keeping System. Ford Co-Pilot360 is available on the base XL trim and standard on the Ranger's other two trims. Off-Road Performance No matter which model you get, both the F-150 and the Ranger are very capable on dirt roads, gravel, and off-road trails. With the Ranger, you can get an off-road package on any 4x4 trim that gives you an off-road suspension, off-road tires, tough skid plates that protect the underbody, the Terrain Management System, and Trail Control. The F-150 can come with off-road features like a locking rear differential, an off-road suspension, and Hill Descent Control, but the best features come on the F-150 Raptor performance trim. When you want a pickup truck that's easier to drive in crowded city streets and doesn't need as much fuel per mile, the Ford Raptor is a good choice. When you need a lot of towing power and off-road capability, you should get the F-150. Stop into Tindol Ford today and compare how each truck rides. Either way, Ford trucks are always among the best on the road. Image via Ford.com
