Ford manufactures a wide range of trucks including many models such as the Ford F-150, 150-XL, 150-XLT, F-150 XL – 4×2, F-150 Lariat, Super Duty F250 XLT.

Truck manufacturers rarely make changes unless it is necessary. The F250 pickup truck was lacking in many areas. However, in its latest model, Ford refined these deficiencies and increased its towing capacity as well. This Ford vehicle now leads the pack of pickup trucks in both the used and new categories for its capability and safety features.

The previous generation of Ford pickup trucks (from 2011 to 2016) trailed behind its competitors. However, the new models have challenged this status quo and are considered to be the best in class. Ford has added a touch of luxury with features like a distinct front grille, two-tone leather upholstery, LED highlights, panoramic sunroof, ash wood trim, 360-degree camera system, adaptive cruise control, forward collision warning with automatic braking, etc.

The latest generation of Ford trucks is capable of towing heavy loads. Users can enjoy confident handling and an optional adaptive steering system. The trucks also have a small electric motor and gearset to adjust the effort required to turn the wheels in tight spaces. It reduces the amount of input needed at high speeds to keep it on track.

The safety features of Ford pickup trucks include airbags, anti-lock brakes, stability and traction control, trailer sway control, hill start assist, post-crash alert system, etc. The Ford MyKey restricts the settings for young drivers. The XLT model has a backup camera too. Lariat and higher trims come with rear parking sensors. It also has a trailer tow camera system which uses seven cameras around the truck to give a 360-degree view which can help drivers maneuver the vehicle out of tight spots. Drivers will find it easier to hook up a trailer with the cameras on the back and the tailgate. The Reverse Guidance system uses these cameras along with visual steering cues, blind spot monitoring with rear cross traffic monitoring, forward collision warning, lane departure warning, automatic emergency braking, and automatic high beams.

If you want to enjoy all these great features at a low price, you can consider purchasing a used Ford pickup truck. You must buy a certified used car as it is thoroughly inspected. Such vehicles also come with a warranty, and drivers can rest easy as any damages can be repaired free of charge. Usually, certified used cars are lesser used vehicles. However, this is not a rule, so do check the number of previous car owners while looking at used Ford trucks for sale. Some used car dealers also provide roadside assistance.
