The 2018 Ford F-150 is ready to take on challengers, although its hard to find rivals brave enough to take it on. With the sheer amount of new technology and innovation that’s been bred into the 2018 F-150, we don’t blame the competition for being daunted. Of course, when the opportunity for a contest arises, the F-150 is more than capable of rising to the occasion. That’s what’s happened here, and since we at Windsor Ford are always chomping at the bit for a little fun, we jumped at the chance to let the F-150 strut it’s stuff. Finding a worthy adversary in RAM’s latest iteration of the 1500-model truck, we decided to unleash the 2019 Ford F-150 on its competitor to see how it stacks up.

2018 FORD F-150

The 2018 F-150 boasts a well-crafted interior replete with forward-looking tech (both inside and under the hood) that lends it a refined, modern look. A new standard 3.3-liter V6 engine replaces the previous 3.5-liter V6, translating into greater power and fuel efficiency. 2018’s F-150 also gets more power from revamped versions of the turbocharged 2.7-liter V6 and 5.0-liter V8. Ford pairs 10-speed automatic transmission to each of these latter two engines, and every F-150 now has auto stop-start. Later in the model year, a turbocharged diesel-powered V6 is expected to debut. Enhanced front and rear styling and an improved forward collision mitigation system are included among the list of advancements that feature in the 2018 Ford F-150.
