2020 F-150

Tough

NOT JUST BUILT TOUGH. BUILT FORD TOUGH.®

The Ford F-150 continues to set the bar for light-duty full-size pickups with its high-strength, military-grade, aluminum-alloy body and bed — the same 6000 series used in military and industrial applications — and high-strength steel frame with unique 12-sided design. The results? Best-in-class payload and towing* — exactly what you’d expect from the Built Ford Tough® F-150.

  • High strength military grade aluminum alloy body

    HIGH-STRENGTH, MILITARY-GRADE, ALUMINUM-ALLOY BODY

    The Ford F-150 has the only high-strength, military-grade, aluminum-alloy body in its class.* A heat-treating process is used to harden the aluminum alloy. Working with aluminum alloy allows an increase in gauge (or thickness) where needed to achieve strength without increasing weight. The lighter aluminum alloy allows for a higher power-to-weight ratio — plus maximum payload and tow ratings that are best in class.* Yet another benefit — resistance to dents.
    *Max payload on F-150 XL Regular Cab, 8' box, 5.0L V8 4x2, Heavy-Duty Payload Package and 18" heavy-duty wheels (not shown). Max towing on F-150 XL SuperCrew,® 6.5' box, 3.5L EcoBoost® 4x2 and Max Trailer Tow Package (not shown). Class is Full-Size Pickups under 8,500 lbs. GVWR based on Ford segmentation.
  • Fully Boxed High Strength Steel Frame

    FULLY BOXED HIGH-STRENGTH STEEL FRAME

    The fully boxed frame is made of more high-strength steel and larger cross sections than the previous-generation frame. And while stronger and more rigid, this frame is also lighter by up to 60 lbs. because many of the components are fabricated using a state-of-the-art roll-forming process that minimizes weight.

F-150 RAPTOR

The F-150 Raptor is equipped to take on punishing terrain that would be off-limits for a conventional 4-wheeler.* Class-exclusive** FOX live valve monotube shocks with internal bypass technology feature an electronic solenoid valve that provides continuously variable compression damping. The Torque-On-Demand® transfer case automatically applies torque with fast responsiveness to the front or rear. The electronic-locking rear differential, when engaged, locks the axle for a firmer grip at both wheels. And the Raptor rides on BFGoodrich® All Terrain KO2 tires. Available beadlock-capable wheels let you air down the tires for enhanced traction.†
*Always consult the Raptor supplement to the owner’s manual before off-road driving, know your terrain, and use appropriate safety gear.
**Class is Full-Size Pickups under 8,500 lbs. GVWR.
†When equipped with aftermarket Ford Performance Bead Lock Rim Kit.

F-150 OFF-ROAD

Shifting into four-wheel drive is as easy as turning a dial with the electronic shift-on-the-fly (ESOF) system. ESOF lets you choose two four-wheel-drive modes (4x4 low or high) as well as two-wheel drive. LARIAT, King Ranch® , Limited, Platinum and Raptor models also include automatic 4WD mode. The FX4 Off-Road Package includes electronic-locking rear differential (locks the rear axle completely for enhanced traction at both wheels), Hill Descent Control™ , off-road tuned shock absorbers, skid plates and “FX4 Off-Road” decal. Plus, the available 360-Degree Camera With Split-View Display is helpful when you’re maneuvering in tight spaces and on off-road trails.

OFF-ROAD TECHNOLOGY

The F-150 Raptor employs advanced technology to help provide the degree of control required for extreme off-road travel.* The Terrain Management System™ offers seven selectable modes (Normal, Sport, Slippery, Tow/Haul, Deep Snow/Sand, Baja and Rock Crawl). And there’s Trail Control,™ a cruise control system for off-road terrain. You set a speed up to 20 mph and the system manages acceleration and braking, sending torque and stopping force to individual wheels as needed, so you can focus on steering over the demanding terrain.
 
*Always consult the Raptor supplement to the owner’s manual before off-road driving, know your terrain, and use appropriate safety gear.
