When it comes time to purchase a capable pickup truck, you simply must check out the 2017 Ford F-150 towing features and capabilities. There’s simply no comparison to other pickup trucks in the class, given the F-150’s sky-high maximum towing capacity and vastly capable engine options. Discover what’s in store with the help of Beach Ford.
Towing Features
The 3.5L EcoBoost V6 engine allows this pickup to deliver a maximum towing capacity of 12,200 pounds when properly equipped, beating out many of the F-150’s competitors.
The materials used to construct the 2017 Ford F-150 make it 700 pounds lighter, which allows it to boast greater towing and payload capacities and enhanced acceleration, to boot.
The fully boxed frame consists of 78% high-strength steel, making it stronger and more rigid, yet also lighter.
All-new turbochargers on the V6 engine compel the F-150 to generate a whopping 450 hp and 510 lb-ft of torque via a 10-speed automatic transmission.
Even the 2017 Ford F-150’s introductory engine allows for quite impressive towing. The 2.7L EcoBoost V6 engine promises up to 8,500 pounds of maximum towing, as well as a 2,210-pound maximum payload. What’s more, an advanced Auto Start-Stop system allows you to save fuel, despite its competitive output. There’s also a 3.5L Ti-VCT FFV V6 engine and a 5.0L Ti-VCT V8 engine on offer, but no matter which powertrain you select, ultimate power is ahead of you.
All things considered, other pickups simply do not compare to the 2017 Ford F-150. Want to find out for yourself? Pick out your ideal F-150 truck from our robust inventory, and then contact the team at Beach Ford to schedule a test drive. We’re confident that you’re going to be impressed!
