2013 Ford F-150 Lariat


We all know how versatile trucks have become and there is really not a lot of difference from one truck to another… or is there? 

The F-150 has so many of the usual conveniences, four doors, tons of inside cargo storage, the ability to haul a crap load of goodies and enough power to tow a small office building.

Ford has tried something a bit different here though, they are pulling it off with a couple less cylinders than the competition. The EcoBoost serves as one of most efficient ways to get all of the power you need while still having the ability to get some excellent fuel consumption ratings. I think they almost pulled this one off, as I never seemed to lack for power. When I did find myself needing that power it became very thirsty though, if you want to get near the rating you had best be wearing feather slippers and catch a tailwind.

But it's not just about how efficiently this truck gets the job done, it's how well this truck makes it easy for you to do your jobs.

Towing trailers is not the only reason to have a truck, after all when you own a truck you are taking on a new position as " Furniture Mover To Your Friends ."  With great pickups come great responsibility. Ford knows this as well so they have added many tools to make it as easy as possible for you to perform your duties!

Equipped with a box extender, you will be able to move almost twice as much of your friends belongings. Sure, pickup boxes have gotten a bit out of hand with the ride height, but as always Ford is looking out for your safety and they have equipped the F150 with a super convenient tailgate step so you won't break a sweat climbing in and out of the box.

You know how when you load a truck, you always end up going back to the front and trying to tuck some more in? Well, Ford was thinking of you and they went ahead and offer these convenient little steps to give you ease of access to the front of the box or just to give you the needed height to install the tie downs before you venture out. So gone are the days of back breaking work to get the job done, all you need now is a Ford F150 and an extra set of hands to move the couches.
So what I came away with from this drive was that Ford again has shown it is the go-to truck of the masses for a reason. And that reason is convenience. They think of everything so you don't have to.

Bundle it all up in a great looking and super comfortable ride  and you get a vehicle that does almost everything well.
