Why Should I Buy a Ford F-150?

It would be a better question to ask why not buy an F-150, but we’ll provide you with a few good reasons why you should anyway. The Ford F-150 has been America’s best-selling pickup truck for years,1 and it’s backed by a brand that’s been established for well over a century. The F-150 model’s popularity has been noted by BNN Bloomberg, writing that the “F-Series is larger than McDonald’s Corp., Nike Inc., Coca-Cola Co. and Starbucks Corp.”2 According to Autoweek, Ford manages to sell an average of 100 F-150 trucks per hour, and that “82% of current F-150 owners would rather stop watching Netflix for a year before giving up their truck.”1

You could say that the F-150 has earned the right to brag a little. If you’re overwhelmed with the saturated truck market, let’s make it simple. Here are our reasons here at Joe Cooper Ford of Edmond for why you should be driving the hugely-popular Ford F-150 this year:

14 Generations of Pure Awesome

With the release of the new 2021 model, the F-150 is now in its 14th generation, a strong testament of just how iconic this truck is in the American market. It’s been the best-selling vehicle in the United States since 1982 — that’s close to four decades.3 With each generation added to the F-Series lineup, generous upgrades in safety, technology and materials used were a given, largely due to Ford’s commitment to innovation and advancement. When it comes to providing America with high-quality transportation, Ford doesn’t mess around.

 

 Outperforming Capability

What’s the point of a truck if not to outperform on the worksite? The 2021 F-150 boasts some high figures this year, breaking away from other trucks in its class with best-in-class sprinkled throughout its performance. Try best-in-class 14,000 lbs. of available towing capability,4 best-in-class available payload ratings of 3,325 lbs.5 and the class-exclusive available 3.5-liter PowerBoost™ Full Hybrid V6 engine. They don’t say Built Ford Tough® for nothing.

 

Off-Roading Optional But Encouraged

Who better than Ford to help you dominate on the weekends? The F-150 Raptor isn’t just for the once-in-a-while amateurs. Supreme off-roading (and fun) is yours with its flexible shocks and crawl control, and it’s available every. Single. Weekend. Four-wheel drive is standard on the Raptor, and it comes with seven driving modes to tackle various terrains. If you’ve found an F-150 model that you enjoy more, just purchase the FX4 Off-Road Package for a little more fun. If you have an untamed quest for adventure, choose an F-150 and leave no rock unturned. 

 

Ford Co-Pilot 360™ Technology

Proactive safety is a huge selling point for any Ford model, but especially for the F-150. With all of the odd jobs and dangerous conditions that this burly truck can tackle, it’s comforting knowing that your vehicle has an army of safety features that work hard to keep you and everyone on board protected. Ford Co-Pilot 360™ technology has the latest improvements in safety, and includes features like BLIS® with Trailer Coverage, Hill Descent Control™ and Pro-Collision Assist with AEB. But that’s not all. The F-150 scores high in safety from several reputable organizations: J.D. Power gave the 2020 Ford F-150 a “stellar predicted reliability rating of 4.5 out of five,”6 and the NHTSA rated the 2020 F-150 SuperCrew models with a 5/5 for overall safety.7
