This completely redesigned model is nearly 700 pounds lighter than the outgoing model thanks to Ford’s bold decision to use high-strength aerospace aluminum in its body panels. This gorgeous new truck is the end result of Ford’s decade-long, multi-billion dollar investment in making the F-150 lighter, tougher, and better on gas. This decision was not undertaken lightly. The F-150 has been the best-selling truck in America every year for the past 37 consecutive years, and is routinely the best-selling model in Ford’s entire line-up. In fact, Ford’s decision to make such a drastic change to its best-selling model caught the competition so off-guard, that, according to the Wall Street Journal,  GM had to scramble to work a deal with Alcoa to secure a supply of aluminum to try and make trucks that are similarly light. GM’s lighter trucks will not be available on the market until 2018 at the earliest, giving Ford at least a three-year head start.

So, when our very first 2015 F-150 arrived the other day, we were pretty excited. It is a Crew Cab 4×4 in the XLT trim level, powered by a 3.5L EcoBoost motor. The window sticker boasts an impressive 19 mpg combined, and 23 mpg on the highway. And with a 36-gallon fuel tank, you can do some serious traveling before you have to fill up again. For the sake of comparison, the outgoing 2014 model with the same motor is rated at 17 mpg combined and 21 mpg on the highway.

This truck comes with chrome appearance package, chrome step bars, trailer tow package, and all the goodies you would expect in a high-end pickup. Inside the cab, you will find a wealth of amenities, like Sirius XM, Sync with MyFord Touch, Rear Camera, Remote Start, Reverse Sensing and more.

We have this beautiful nicely polished and sitting in our showroom; stop in and take a look at it! And from now until December 23rd, we are teamed up with The Laconia Citizen for our Fill Up the Pick Up canned food drive. So when you come to check out our completely redesigned 2015 F-150, please consider bringing a donation of canned or non-perishable food items so we can help our community this winter.
