2009 Ford F-150 4X4 SuperCrew Review - Autochannel (press release)
MORE Compare Ford Pickups. Model: Ford F-150 4X4 Supercrew. 4-liter V8. Horsepower/Torque: 320 hp @ 5,000 rpm/390 lb. -ft. @ 3,500 rpm. Fuel economy: 14 mpg city/18 mpg highway/15. The Bottom Line: There's a reason the F-150 has been such a big seller for Ford. it's big, practical, powerful and it has a ton of features to make it interesting to people who might not normally think of a pickup truck. The redesign is a more masculine design that some previous redesigns, but it's still a man's vehicle. Since I spend most of my life driving sedans and, occasionally, SUVs and, even more occasionally, large SUVs, it came as somewhat of a shock when I first approached the Ford F-150. This is a full-size pickup truck with all its attributes and foibles. Not only is it a full-size truck, but our tester was the Supercrew version with a full back seat that would accommodate most respectable basketball players. Throw in a standard cargo bed and we have a truck that is eight inches short of being 20 feet long. I kept leaving either the nose or tail sticking out of the parking space when I parked. That isn't totally fair, because there is a rear view camera that gives you a good idea of where the back end of the truck is, I just didn't have the nerve to try it. Our tester didn't have a navigation system and the screen that usually. Source: www.theautochannel.com
