There are lots of pick-ups available for purchase in the US, most of which are pretty much the same. Ford, however, is trying to differentiate the facelifted F-150 by introducing a special edition, at the Texas State Fair. It features a revised three-bar grille, as well as special badging, so that other pick-up owners can see that your ride is cooler than theirs.
Finishing off the look is a new monotone exterior finish, as well as some nice-looking 20-inch rims. Inside, the seats are wrapped inj Chaparral leather, and the dash gets some rather distasteful fake-wood which is further accentuated by special ambient lighting.
In terms of engines, there are two available options, a 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 which puts out 365 hp and 570 Nm (420 lb-ft), and a 5.0-liter V8 with 360 hp and 515 Nm (380 lb-ft). However, we say the smaller turbocharged unit is the best bet, as it has more torque and less displacement, and thus will be considerably more economical.
