    Current Model
    The workhorse F-150 is loaded with tech and active safety features. The cabin is very quiet, and the crew cab versions we tested are super-roomy.
    The popular 2.7-liter turbo V6 provides effortless acceleration and a respectable 19 mpg overall. The PowerBoost hybrid version has loads of power and gets 20 mpg overall. The ride is still stiff and handling is ponderous. Controls are straightforward, but the interior is spartan. Ford's Sync 4 infotainment system is very easy to use. Clever features include a foldaway gear selector that creates a flat workspace, a tailgate designed to serve as a workbench, and an optional built-in generator to power tools. Both FCW and AEB with pedestrian detection are standard. Ford's BlueCruise active driving assistance system is available. The all-electric Lightning has an EPA-estimated range between 230 and 320 miles. The extreme Raptor R with a 700-hp, 5.2-liter supercharged V8, is new for 2023.

    2021-2022
    2021 Redesign Year
    The F-150 continues to be a workhorse but it adds more tech, advanced safety features, and a hybrid version for the 2021 model year. The mildly upgraded cabin remains very quiet, and the crew cabs we tested are super roomy.
    The popular 2.7-liter turbo-V6 provides effortless acceleration and respectable fuel economy, at 19 mpg overall. The new "PowerBoost" hybrid has loads of power and gets 20 mpg overall. The F-150's ride and handling have improved slightly. Clever new features include a foldaway gear selector that creates a flat workspace, a tailgate designed to serve as a workbench, and an optional built-in generator with the ability to power job-site equipment. The F-150 has Ford's easy-to-use, new Sync 4 infotainment system. Every F-150 comes with standard FCW and AEB with pedestrian detection. Ford's new all-electric truck, resurrected the Lightning name, is aiming for the eco market instead of a performance edge. The new EV will reportedly have up to 563 hp with an estimated 300-mile range.

    2015-2020
    2015 Redesign Year
    A redesigned F-150 arrived for 2015 with an aluminum body that saved 700 pounds for better fuel economy. Our tested crew-cab models were cavernously proportioned front and rear.
    Both were almost tomb-silent as well. The driving position is comfy and roomy, while the standard tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel and optional power-adjustable pedals accommodate truckers of all shapes and sizes. While large windows and relatively narrow pillars provide good visibility, a rearview camera was an option. The towing package adds an integrated trailer brake controller, towing mirrors, and a revised rear axle ratio. We'd get the XLT or higher trim, as the basic XL work-truck version limits the availability of desirable comfort and safety features.

    2009-2014
    2009 Redesign Year
    Freshened in 2009, the F-150 gained standard stability control. A revised six-speed automatic transmission also produced better fuel economy.
    Handling was secure and braking performance was also vastly improved, though some testers complained about poor feel from the pedal. A spacious interior and a deep cargo bed are also pluses. On the other hand, the ride is stiff and the engine sounds unrefined when pressed. However, road noise is held to a whisper and wind rush barely exceeds background levels. Crash-test results and cabin storage are impressive, while Ford's Sync system provides voice control for phone calls and music players.

    2004-2008
    2004 Redesign Year
    The 2004 redesign endowed the Ford F-150 with ride and handling improvements, including a tight (for a full-size pickup truck) 47 ft. turning circle.
    Crash-test results also improved significantly. However, braking performance was just adequate in our tests and the powertrain isn't very smooth. On the other hand, offroad performance is commendable, interior comfort is also good and outward visibility is too. The spring assisted tailgate makes loading cargo easier. This version of the Ford F-150 also demonstrates better noise isolation, as well as fit and finish, than its predecessor.

    1998-2003
    The F-150 is the half-ton version of Ford's best-selling F-Series pickup line. Like most pickups, it offers multiple configurations and powertrains.
    During our tests, the boxy pre-1997 F-150 rode well and quietly on most roads. Its ride and braking improved with a full load. We found the seats erect, but roomy. Ford completely redesigned the F-150 for 1998, improving comfort, handling, and refinement. An optional third door on extended-cab models became available in 1998, and a fourth door was offered in 1999. The supercharged SVT Lightning serves up sports-car-quality acceleration. A four-door crew-cab was introduced for 2001.
