The F150 is available on two models the XLT and Lariat. Both will come in a short wheel base and long wheel base versions. Pricing for the XLT is around $107,000 plus the usual costs and the Lariat is around $140,000 plus the usual costs.

One advantage the F-150 has is that it is backed by an existing nationwide dealer network and a factory-backed five-year, unlimited kilometre warranty.

Both models F-150 will feature a 3.5L EcoBoost Twin-Turbo V6 petrol engine, coupled with 10-speed automatic transmission in 4×4 Crew Cab configuration. With 298kW and 678Nm across the range

Towing is rated at 4500kg like the RAM 1500 and Chev Silverado.

The F-150s are built in the USA and shipped here and undergo a remanufacture process for local compliance.

2023 will be a booming year for lovers of large pick-up trucks, not only is the F-150 coming, but the Toyota Tundra is coming as well as a new Silverado and perhaps even the Nissan Titan

I’m a huge fan of the mod size pick up Trucks and am really looking forward to this year

Ford F-150 Engine

Both the XLT and LARIAT F-150 will feature the top-selling 3.5L EcoBoost Twin-Turbo V6 petrol engine, coupled with 10-speed automatic transmission in 4×4 Crew Cab configuration. With 298kW and 678Nm across the range, the F-150 blends effortless torque across its rev range by using clever technology. This includes Ford’s port-fuel and direct-injection (PFDI) system, which uses a pair of injectors per cylinder along with twin-intercooled turbochargers that offer on-demand power while minimizing lag.

Each F-150 variant can be purchased either as a short wheelbase (SWB) with a 3683mm (145-inch) wheelbase and 1676mm (5.5-foot) styleside box, or long wheelbase (LWB) that extends the wheelbase to 3987mm (157-inch) and styleside box to 1981mm (6.5-foot). All F-150 models in Australia are capable of towing 4.5 tonne, providing customers a new level of hauling ability.
