For the past four decades, the Ford F-series has been the best-selling truck in the country, which makes us extra proud to carry these models at Wickstrom Ford. We're also truly excited that the latest addition to this lineup, the 2018 Ford F-150, was just added to our inventory of new cars for sale in Barrington, IL. Given its history, the new Ford F-150 is sure to become one of the most popular vehicles we sell.
2018 Ford F-150 Details
Depending on which trim level you select, the 2018 Ford F-150 comes with one of five engines. New for the model year is the 3.3-liter Ti-VCT V6, which pumps out 290 horsepower and 265 lb-ft of torque.
This Ford truck can also now tow up to a best-in-class 13,200 lb of cargo when equipped with the 3.5-liter EcoBoost® twin-turbo V6. Its range starts at 5,000 lb, which is still an impressive feat. Regardless of which trim you opt for, the Ford F-150 is a great option for farmers, construction workers, and other folks who need a heavy-duty vehicle.
For towing assistance, you can spring for the Pro Trailer Backup Assistâ„¢, which helps you maneuver oversize loads with ease.
This pickup's strength extends to its exterior. The pickup truck is forged from military-grade aluminum alloy, meaning its frame is both tough and lightweight. In fact, this model weighs 700 lb less than the 2017 version. The frame of the Ford F-150 even resists dents and corrosion, allowing you to travel into unknown land without having to worry about being too rough.
2018 Ford F-150 Safety and Special Features
There are dozens of available safety and special features to customize your 2018 Ford F-150. When you visit our Barrington Ford dealership in person, one of our knowledgeable sales representatives can discuss them all with you in greater detail. Until then, here are a few we're especially excited about.
A 360-degree camera improves your visibility on the sides of the pickup to make parallel parking, backing up, and maneuvering through heavy traffic a bit less stressful. The blind spot information system prevents collisions by signaling you in the exterior mirror if there's a vehicle in your blind spot. You might also opt for an eight-inch LCD productivity display, which tracks the truck's mileage, fuel economy, and other important stats.
