Earlier this week, Ford unveiled the ’13 F-150—a refreshed version of the pickup. Changes include new front-end styling and an infusion of technologies, such as MyFord Touch voice-activated driver controls and high-intensity discharge (HID) headlamps.
There is also a new Limited luxury model and availability of the 6.2L V8 engine, electronic-locking rear axle and additional features, such as Hill Descent Control.
Outside, the F-150 lineup gets new two- and three-bar grilles, but all models still retain recognizable F-Series cues highlighted on the XLT model. The new, L-shaped HID projector headlamps are available to deliver improved visibility and increased driver confidence, according to Ford.
The F-150 will also now offer new 18- and 20-in. wheels in various trim packages. Ford’s telescoping and power-folding trailer-tow side-view mirrors will now be available on the F-150 to provide flexibility and convenience when operating in tight quarters.
F-150 pickups are available in three new hues, including Blue Jeans Metallic, Kodiak Brown Metallic and Ruby Red Clearcoat Metallic.
There are now four engines available on the F-150; each is mated to an electronic six-speed automatic transmission with tow/haul mode and tow packages. The STX series and above adds SelectShift capability.
