Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2013 | 4dr Crew Cab 5.5ft bed turbocharged 365hp 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range |
OMG this is the greatest the little v6 with dual turbo is very powerful, has all the get up and go you need to accelerate into traffic. is easy on gas if you stay away from the turbo most of the time. see full Ford F-150 review |
2012 | 4dr Crew Cab 5.5ft bed turbocharged 365hp 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range |
Love the Ecoboost engine. If you aren't use to turbo lag, you might find it a bit annoying at first, but once you get use to it you'll love the torque that gets put down as the engine engages. Getting 17 mpg in 50/50 mixed city/hwy driving. see full Ford F-150 review |
2012 | 2dr Regular Cab 6.5ft bed 302-horsepower 3.7L V6 6-speed automatic RWD |
3.7L is a terrific engine. Don't feel like you have to pony up for the Ecoboost. The slight hesitation out of the hole goes away after break in, about 4K of city driving. I'm the type to put the cheapest possible gas into a car, but not this one. It loves zero ethanol high test and I try to provide it. Get 18.25 mpg hand measured, in city driving. (XL standard cab 4X2. Occasional hard shift with six speed auto. see full Ford F-150 review |
