LOADED WITH INNOVATION. TO CARRY THE MOST PUNISHING LOADS.
Our first-in-class breakthrough – a truck body and bed made from high-strength, military-grade, aluminum alloys – trims weight to help create a 2016 Ford F-150 that accelerates forcefully. Stops quickly. And leads its class in maximum towing and payload capacity, as well as gas EPA-estimated highway fuel economy.
We collaborated with experts to formulate this metal. Then we made it stronger. It doesn’t rust. It resists corrosion. It’s dent- and ding-resistant. In other words, it’s engineered to stand up to punishment.
1
To carry all this material innovation, we created the strongest frame ever in an F-150. High-strength steel now comprises up to 78% of its fully boxed, modular frame. This incredibly sturdy metal infuses the 8 rugged crossmembers (5 are through-welded) and large cross-section frame rails. Enhancing stiffness. And durability.
Since the truck weighs less, you can haul more. Tow more. And do it all more efficiently. That’s just a smarter way to work. And play. The 2016 Ford F-150.

THE SAFEST F-150 EVER.
The 2016 Ford F-150 received the government’s highest safety rating for every cab configuration: a 5-Star Overall Vehicle Score.
To help reduce crush into the passenger compartment in certain front, side and rear impacts, a masterful mix of high-strength, military-grade, aluminum alloys works together with a unique frame structure. A patented 12-sided design in the high-strength-steel front-frame horn helps improve front-impact protection, helping dissipate crash energy. Additional through-welded crossmembers bolster side-impact protection. An extruded rocker reinforcement helps reduce cab intrusion in certain front- and side-impacts, while roof strength is reinforced by a hydroformed roof rail supported by an extruded closed-section roof bow.
First-in-class inflatable rear safety belts
occupants join 6 standard airbags to enhance driver and passenger protection. To reduce injury risk in certain collisions, the fully inflated rear safety belt distributes crash energy across 5 times more of an occupant’s body than a non-inflatable safety belt.

BUILT FORD TOUGH.® TO ENDURE THE MOST IMPORTANT TESTS OF ALL.
Yours. We know what you do to your trucks. At work, you punish them. Loading. Hauling. At play, you push them. Mudding. Pulling the heaviest of loads. So it’s good to know you’re starting with a truck that has already passed our toughest tests.
Built Ford Tough is our measure of long-lasting durability. And this is the most tested Ford F-150 ever. It’s so tough, in fact, that we had to develop new ways to test it. From acidified spray to the unforgiving heat and abrasive sand of Baja, this truck’s been to hell. And back.
Engineered for the long haul, F-150 endured over 10 million cumulative miles of testing before the first truck rolled off the line. We applied these same standards to the F-150 engine lineup, which has proven itself over millions of miles of harsh lab and real-world testing. The result?
Ford F-Series has more full-size pickups on the road with 250,000 or more miles than any other full-size truck. So from sunrise to sunset, you can count on F-150 to tow, haul, work and play like no other. No wonder F-Series has been America’s best-selling truck for 38 years.

and a class-best gas EPA-estimated highway fuel
economy rating

of 26 mpg is yours. But there’s more
to it than that.
This high-output, direct-injection twin-turbo “Pocket Hercules” pumps out 325 hp and 375 lb.-ft. of torque, so you’ll have up to 8,500-lb. max. towing capacity.
3
Plus, up to 2,210-lb. max. payload capacity.3
It’s fuel efficiency – that works.
Strength and durability come from compacted graphite iron (CGI) that forms the upper engine block and cylinders. It’s the same material used in our rugged 6.7L Power Stroke
®
V8 Turbo Diesel engine, allowing the block to be smaller, lighter and stronger. The lower block and cylinder heads are made of aluminum to save weight.
To optimize fuel usage, Auto Start-Stop is standard with the 2.7L and can shut off the engine when the truck comes to a complete stop. When the brake is released, the engine restarts immediately. Tuned specifically for rigorous truck applications, Auto Start-Stop will not intervene when F-150 is in tow/haul mode, 4-wheel drive (4WD) and other circumstances that require the engine to drive essential accessories.

A WIDE RANGE OF POWERFUL CHOICES.
Finding smarter, more efficient ways to get the job done defines F-150. With 4 available engines, all deliver on exceptional efficiency. Without compromising capability.
2 EcoBoost® engines1 deliver remarkably balanced performance, blending potent low-end torque with impressive
efficiency. The 3.5L direct-injection, twin-turbo can tow a class-leading 12,200 lbs. The 2.7L showed its mettle early by completing the Tecate SCORE Baja 1000 off-road racecourse. Both are ready to handle whatever you throw at them. After all, Ford EcoBoost engines now power over 800,000 F-150 trucks.
By improving power-to-weight ratios from the previous generation,2 each F-150 engine can devote more power to your job. But that’s not all. Light-weighting helps improve their fuel efficiency as well. As does twin independent variable camshaft timing (Ti-VCT). Plus Active Grille Shutters that can close at cruising speed to reduce drag. A new sport mode on the standard 6-speed automatic transmission, and available SelectShift® capability, make that power easy to engage.
A class-exclusive CNG/Propane Gaseous Engine Prep Package readies your V8-equipped F-150 to be upfit for compressed natural gas (CNG), propane autogas, or as a bi-fuel vehicle with the ability to seamlessly switch between CNG or propane and gasoline.

ROAD MANNERS. BY THE TRUCKLOAD.
F-150 delivers “on-road manners... far better than some cars we’ve driven,” says fourwheeler.com. Its high-strength-steel frame provides torsional rigidity. High-strength, military-grade, aluminum alloys reduce weight. And a double-wishbone, independent front suspension and optimized tuning help smooth out rough spots.
A refined brake system adds stopping confidence. Electric power-assisted steering (EPAS) supplies precise road feel. Staggered outboard rear shocks add stability. The result? A driving dynamic that inspires trust – whether the cargo bed is empty or when working.
For enhanced control going into turns, standard Curve Control1 can sense when you’re taking a turn too fast. When it does, the system can slow the truck’s speed by as much as 10 mph in about a second to help you maintain control.
Maintain your lane with help from our Lane-Keeping System.2 It can detect lane markings with a forward­facing camera, and can send vibration pulses to the steering wheel and apply steering torque, if needed, to prompt you to steer back toward center. There’s also a Driver Alert System that warns you in the message center if it detects you could use a break from driving.

Pro Trailer Backup Assist segment-first technology that makes the challenge of backing up a trailer easier than ever. At a crowded job site, into a garage, or almost anywhere.
Leveraging advanced camera technology with electric power-assisted steering (EPAS), Ford engineers developed this trailer backing system and tested it for almost a decade. Along the way, 5 patents have been granted and another 10 patents are pending.
for the 2016 Ford F-150 is
To operate the system once programmed, rotate the control knob to indicate how much the system should turn the trailer. Pro Trailer Backup Assist then automatically steers the truck to turn the trailer the desired amount. The system may limit vehicle speed to enhance the comfort and control over a variety of road surfaces.
The result: less time to back up a trailer with improved confidence. It even helps trailer-towing experts back up a trailer by reducing time lost to maneuvering mistakes.
