2015 Ford F-150 XLT SuperCrew 4x4: Perfect Balance - AutoGo.ca
With so many configurations, trims, powertrains and options, there is an F-150 for any pickup truck buyer. Of course, the same can be said for its rivals the Ram 1500 , the Chevrolet Silverado and the GMC Sierra. However, the newly introduced 2. 7-litre, twin-turbo V6 engine could represent the best compromise between power and capability, because it isn’t lacking in either one. With 325 horsepower on tap, as well as 375 lb-ft of torque at 3,000 rpm, the 2015 Ford F-150 that’s bolted around this mighty little engine never feels too heavy, whether the bed is loaded or not, or a crowd has gathered in the vast cockpit. The twin-turbo 3. 5L V6 can tow 12,200 lbs. The truck is easy to manoeuvre in traffic and on the highway, and doesn’t feel as massive as its rivals, even if we’re only talking about a few hundred pounds here. During a recent trip from Montreal to Toronto and back, we averaged 10. 7 L/100 km – which is pretty good for a full-size pickup. The Sport package also adds a unique finish to the functional and tasteful interior. Ford is putting the final touches on a new multimedia system called SYNC 3, which will find its way into the 2016 F-150. That’s good news. Source: www.autogo.ca
