BoxLink™
With the flexible, configurable new BoxLink™ system, we’ve taken the conventional pickup box and reshaped it to be more usable, so you can work more easily and be more productive.
- The structurally reinforced box sides allow you to attach and tie down various kinds of cargo.
- The four interface plates can be configured to accommodate many available Ford and aftermarket accessories (including E-Track) – storage bins, dividers, loading ramps and many others.
- The four lockable, removable cleats can handle the same loads as the four hard-attached interface cleats in the pickup box (275 lbs. across; 600 lbs. diagonally), providing additional locations to tie down the cargo you’re carrying safely and securely.
F-150 off-road
Shifting into 4-wheel drive is as easy as turning a dial with the available electronic shift-on-the-fly (ESOF) system. ESOF lets you choose two 4-wheel-drive modes (4x4 low or high) as well as 2-wheel-drive. LARIAT, King Ranch® and Platinum models also include automatic 4WD mode. The FX4 Off-Road Package is available on all F-150 4x4s and contains everything for the off-road enthusiast:
- Electronic-locking rear differential, when engaged, locks the rear axle completely to provide enhanced traction at both rear wheels.
- Hill Descent Control™, when activated, applies brake pressure as needed, enabling you to descend grades at a controlled speed of up to 20 miles per hour.
- Off-road tuned shock absorbers, plus skid plates help protect the fuel tank, transfer case and front differential.
- A 4x4 “FX4 Off-Road” decal on the pickup box is included also.
- What’s more, the F-150 offers the available class-exclusiveF150 Capability-2 360-Degree Camera with Split-View Display that’s helpful when you’re maneuvering in tight spaces and on off-road trails.
Best-in-class payload
Reducing weight is an effective way to increase payload. And that’s what we’ve achieved with the new F-150 – by up to 700 kilograms. Greater strength with less weight achieves a 3,300-kilogram maximum payload rating that is best-in-class. Even the F-150 powered by the new 2.7L EcoBoost® V6 can haul up to 2,250 kilograms.F150 Capability-3
Electronic-Locking Rear Differential
The available electronic-locking rear differential locks the rear axle completely to provide enhanced traction at both rear wheels at the same time. And it’s fully integrated with standard AdvanceTrac® with Roll Stability Control to deliver excellent traction when you’re traveling on the road. Or off.
Tested in the Middle East
We put the F-150 through a rigorous set of torture tests while we were building it. But we didn’t stop there. We actually brought it over here to the Middle East. Where we tested it again and again. After all, the best way to know how well the F-150 will hold up here is to test it here.
