Ford F 150
The F-Series is a series
of full-size pickup trucks from Ford Motor
Company sold for over 5 decades. The most
popular variant of the F-Series is the F-150.
It has been the best-selling vehicle in the
world for 23 years and the best-selling truck
in the United States (and possibly the world)
for 28 years. Analysts estimate that the F-Series
alone makes up half of the Ford Motor Company's
profits in recent years.
For 2005 the "Super
Duty" model was redesigned. These included
a new grille, new interior, and factory installed
trailer brake controller and uplitter switches.
The engines were also upgraded, with the new
3 valve 5.4L V8 and 6.8L V10 putting out 300
and 362 horsepower, respectively. The Powerstroke
Diesel was also modified, boosting torque
from 560ft/lb to 570ft/lb, but horsepower
stayed at 325. Look for another complete redesign
for 2007, along with the introduction of a
new gas 6.4L twin-trubo V8 Powerstroke Diesel
engine, manufactured by International/Navistar.
