Ford F-150 vs Ram 1500
The full-size pickup truck market mirrors the evolving trends in the automotive industry, and Columbine Ford is committed to guiding customers through the myriad of choices available. Leading the charge is the renowned Ford F-150, which broke ground by offering a hybrid powertrain and introduced the fully electric F-150 Lightning. Ram has also made its mark on the segment with its coil spring rear suspension, transforming pickups from mere workhorses to versatile family vehicles. Whether you prioritize efficiency with hybrid or electric options or value comfort and versatility for family use, there’s a pickup for you. Which one is right for you? Read on to explore the latest trends and discover the perfect fit!
Engine Options of the Ford F-150
The F-150 lineup delivers exceptional performance with powerful engines, from the 3.5L EcoBoost V6 to the monstrous 720-horsepower 5.2L Supercharged V8. The innovative F-150 PowerBoost Hybrid V6 stands out for its cutting-edge design, optimizing power and efficiency. This translates into endless possibilities for work and play. With a towing capacity of up to 13,500 pounds, the F-150 can confidently haul whatever you need, wherever you need to take it.
Engine Options of the Ram 1500
The Ram 1500 falls short compared to the Ford with only three engine options, none of which are V8. One of them is the 3.0L Hurricane, which has a respectable towing capacity of up to 11,570 pounds. However, it trails behind the F-150’s maximum of 13,500 pounds. Unlike Ford’s hybrid option, Ram uses a mild hybrid system called eTorque on its 3.6L Pentastar V6. This system replaces the alternator with a 48-volt motor generator, using an electric motor for extra torque.
Cabin Features of the Ford F-150
The Ford F-150 is built for maximum efficiency, on and off the job. You can choose from various cab sizes (Regular Cab, Super Cab, Super Crew) and bed lengths (5.5 ft to 8 ft) to perfectly match your needs. Standard 12-inch digital displays keep you informed and in control, while the innovative head-up display adds another layer of convenience. The Pro Access Tailgate boasts a side-opening section for tight spaces, swings out 100 degrees, and offers detent positions for maximum versatility, making loading and unloading easier than ever.
Cabin Features of the Ram 1500
The Ram 1500 offers two cabin choices: the Quad Cab and the Crew Cab. Both configurations accommodate up to six passengers, but the Crew Cab boasts nearly 10 inches of additional rear legroom compared to the Quad Cab. The cabin featuers a sizable bin in the center console and ample space beneath the folding rear seats. The user-friendly infotainment systems support over-the-air updates, and the touchscreen sizes have been upgraded, with a standard 12-inch version providing enhanced functionality and ease of use.
