Ford's New F-150 Pick-Up 7/10/15 - News8000.com - WKBT
That’s the smallest engine you’ll find in a full-sized pickup truck, and it gets the best fuel economy in its class—17 mpg overall. Consumer Reports finds that the smaller engine of the F-150 has plenty of power, accelerating faster than even the larger 3. 5-liter turbocharged engine. The new F-150 scored below both RAM 1500 and the Chevrolet Silverado because the Fords don’t ride or handle as well. The Ford F-150 2. 7-liter that Consumer Reports tested costs $46,000. That’s more than the Silverado, which gets almost the same fuel economy—16 miles per gallon. As for the RAM 1500, its Eco Diesel is Consumer Reports’ top-rated full-sized pickup truck. Consumer Reports says that it’s the most comfortable-riding full-sized pickup on the market, yet it’s plenty capable of handling hard work. It gets 20 miles per gallon and costs just over $49,000.
