F-150

The Ford F-150 is presented here as a model range rather than an individual vehicle listing, with several configurations spanning LARIAT, Platinum, XLT Black Edition and XLT grades. The range is built around a 3.5-litre V6 Twin-Turbo EcoBoost petrol engine, a 10-speed automatic transmission and four-wheel drive, creating a broad base for both everyday driving and heavier-duty work.

Configuration is a key part of the F-150 proposition. Buyers can choose between short- and long-wheelbase double-cab pick-up bodies, allowing the vehicle to be tailored toward different combinations of passenger space, load-area requirements and overall footprint. The model is described as being remanufactured to Ford’s global standards for Australian roads, worksites and weekends.

The powertrain is specified with outputs of 298kW and 678Nm, while the stated braked towing capacity is 4.5 tonnes. That towing capability is supported in higher-grade equipment listings by a tow bar with an integrated trailer brake controller, along with blind-spot monitoring that includes cross-traffic alert and trailer-tow coverage. These features are particularly relevant when manoeuvring with a trailer or when the vehicle is being used around busy worksites and confined loading areas.

Practicality is reinforced by the pick-up body and a selection of load-focused equipment. Depending on the grade, the range includes a spray-in bedliner, power-release and power-close tailgate functionality, and a 400W 230V inverter in the rear load box. The latter adds a useful source of power for compatible equipment away from conventional outlets, while the protected load surface is suited to the demands of regular cargo use.

Across the range, equipment includes LED headlamps and power-adjustable exterior mirrors with power folding and memory functions. Higher specifications add features such as 20-inch alloy wheels, a power twin-panel moonroof, heated front seats and black exterior detailing. The Platinum grade is also described with adaptive suspension, known as Continuously Controlled Damping, working with the Terrain Management System to adjust the vehicle’s response across differing surfaces and load conditions.

The exterior design varies by grade, with distinctive grilles, headlamps, belt-line trim and wheel treatments giving each version its own interpretation of the F-150’s large pick-up form. A selection of exterior colours is available, including Oxford White, black, grey, red and dark blue tones. An important range note states that side-mirror integrated indicator lamps on long-wheelbase variants and rear-facing white lamps are not operational.
