Still, there continues to be one pickup that dominates in pretty much every category: the 2019 Ford F-150. Everyone here at O'Brien Ford of Shelbyville is thrilled to offer this powerhouse pickup in our showroom, and we want to tell you all about why the 2019 Ford F-150 is the truck to beat this year. 2019 Ford F-150 Details The 2019 Ford F-150 has six different engines to choose from. The base model comes with a 3.3-liter V6 engine that produces 295 horsepower, but you’ll get much more power with either the Limited or Raptor trims. Both feature a 3.5-liter V6 engine that will give you 450 horsepower and 510 lb-ft of torque on any type of terrain. When properly equipped, this new Ford truck can tow an astounding 13,200 pounds, perfect for trailers and campers of any size. You have the option of choosing either a 5.5-foot, 6.5-foot, or eight-foot truck bed, but no matter which size you choose, you can augment it with several available features, like stowable loading ramps, LED lighting, and a tail-gate step. The 2019 Ford F-150's available Ford BoxLink® system makes securing cargo a breeze thanks to its movable tie-downs. Pickup trucks aren’t typically known for comfort, but the 2019 Ford F-150 is breaking the mold. While the Regular Cab models can fit three people, the SuperCab and SuperCrew models offer much more legroom as well as supportive seats. Cloth upholstery is standard, but leather or vinyl upholstery is available for extra comfort. Having received an overall five-star rating from the NHTSA, the 2019 Ford F-150 doesn't take your safety for granted. Standard features include automatic emergency braking, forward collision warning, and a rearview camera, so you can easily back into tricky parking spaces.
