Unbeatable Performance: How the Ford F-150 Stands Tall in Leesville
Compare the New Ford F-150 vs. the Competition
The Ford F-150 is the benchmark for power, towing, and versatility in the full-size truck category. Whether tackling tough work around Leesville or heading off on weekend adventures, its variety of powertrains, bed sizes, and impressive hauling capabilities make it a clear winner against other major brands. Rising above its rivals, the F-150's blend of performance and flexibility positions it as the clear leader in its class, offering everything from exceptional towing to advanced off-road capability.
In a competition of rivals, the Ford F-150 always returns to the top as the winning truck for drivers who demand the best. And when it comes to finding this outstanding full-size truck, Hixson Ford of Leesville is the perfect place to start. Let's take a look at how the F-150 outshines its rival full-size trucks, including the Chevrolet Silverado 1500, Ram 1500, and Toyota Tundra.
Ford F-150 Vs. Chevrolet Silverado 1500
- The F-150's base EcoBoost® V6 engine produces 325 horsepower, outclassing the Silverado 1500's TurboMax™ engine that delivers 310 standard horsepower. The Chevy Silverado 1500's available 6.2-liter EcoTec3 V8 engine produces a max performance output of 420 horsepower but three of the Ford F-150's powertrain options are more powerful. The F-150 has a more formidable 5.2-liter supercharged V8 engine that delivers up to 720 horsepower. Also, the Ford's lighter frame and turbocharged option provide an excellent balance of power and fuel economy.
- Move heavier materials around Leesville with the Ford F-150, courtesy of a superior maximum payload rating of 2,440 pounds. That figure tops the Chevy Silverado 1500's max payload rating of 2,260 pounds.
- The F-150 offers a best-in-class towing capacity of 14,000 pounds, beating the Silverado's 13,300 pounds, making the Ford F-150 full-size truck the more capable choice for towing heavy trailers or boats.
Ford F-150 Vs. Ram 1500
- The Ram 1500 only offers three engine options, with standard and max performance outputs - 305 horsepower and 540 horsepower, respectively - lower than the F-150, which maxes out at 720 horsepower. When you buy a new F-150 from our Ford dealership in Leesville, you have double the powertrain options, including V8 engines. The 2.7-liter EcoBoost® V6 engine for the F-150 delivers 325 horsepower and 400 pound-feet of torque, topping the Ram 1500's 3.6-liter Pentastar® V6 engine rated for 305 horsepower and 269 pound-feet of torque.
- The Ram 1500 cannot act like a mobile power source in the way the Ford F-150 can through its exclusive Pro Power Onboard feature. This provides exportable electricity on demand, with available outputs of 2.0 kW, 2.4 kW, and 7.2 kW. Power your work tools, recreational equipment, and more with this unique F-150 feature.
- Towing for the Ram 1500 maxes out at 11,550 pounds, significantly less than the F-150's class-topping 14,000-pound capacity, making the Ford a superior choice for heavy-duty towing needs.
Ford F-150 Vs. Toyota Tundra
- The Tundra's new twin-turbo V6 delivers between 358 and 389 horsepower for non-hybrid models. Choose a 3.5-liter EcoBoost® V6 engine for the F-150 to harness 400 horsepower. Both trucks offer hybrid V6 engines, but the Tundra is missing V8 powertrain options.
- Toyota Tundra trucks can only handle a payload of 1,940 pounds. If you're transporting heavy materials, rely on the Ford F-150 with its higher payload capacity of 2,440 pounds.
- The Tundra can tow up to 12,000 pounds, but it's no match for the F-150's 14,000-pound towing capacity, giving the Ford an edge in heavy-duty hauling performance.
