Meet the New 2023 Ford F-150

When it comes to full-size pickups, the Ford F-150 has always been a leader in its class with its stunning performance and innovative technology. The 2023 edition continues that legacy and combines available off-road capabilities with a luxurious interior, as well as a wide array of advanced driver-assist features.

Performance

The 2023 F-150 offers plenty of strong performance options, with engine horsepower ranging from 325 horses in a smaller V6 to an astounding 700 horses in the Raptor R model’s V8. With a maximum towing capacity of 14,000 pounds, achievable with an available 400-horsepower 3.5-liter V6, hauling a heavy trailer with recreational vehicles or a camper on it should be no problem.

When going off-road, you have many traction-enhancing features available to make rides smoother, including optional four-wheel drive and a terrain management system with up to seven different driving modes. There’s also the trail-oriented FX4 Off-Road Package, which gives the truck heavy-duty skid plates, an electronic-locking rear differential, responsive shock absorbers, and other rugged features.

Interior

As stylish as it is accommodating, this edition’s cabin offers plenty of luxury amenities to keep everyone comfortable on long road trips, including dual-zone climate control and heated seats throughout. The front-row seats can also be ventilated and fully reclined, and a heated steering wheel is available to keep your hands comfy while driving.If you need to stay productive, there’s also an interior work surface, which folds out in front of you after you’ve folded the stowable gear shifter out of the way.

Technology

Plenty of innovative technology features are also offered with this pickup, like Onboard Scales, which is a cargo-weighing system found in the bed of the vehicle. Another impressive feature is Pro Power Onboard, an electrical generator that can keep power tools, mini-fridges, and camping gear plugged in and powered on.

If you prefer to listen to music from your smartphone or from the Internet instead of on SiriusXM satellite radio channels, you can do so wirelessly by connecting your device to either the 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot or the SYNC 4 infotainment system.

Safety

There’s also no shortage of innovative safety features in this edition, such as the Auto High-Beam Headlamps, which can dim your high beams to match lighting conditions on the road. Pre-Collision Assist can warn you if you’re headed toward other vehicles too quickly, while Automatic Emergency Braking can stop the vehicle when there are only seconds left to do so.

There’s also a smart cruising feature, Intelligent Adaptive Cruise Control, which allows you to choose your preferred speed and keeps the vehicle there unless it needs to slow down or speed up the truck to match traffic conditions.

Stylish, reliable, and ready for just about any challenge, the 2023 F-150 offers something for everyone to love. Come check it out in person today by contacting us at Bob Maxey Ford of Howell, and we’re sure you’ll fall in love with this pickup as soon as you get behind the wheel.
