2012 Ford F-150 Gets Upgrades

[Zembonez]

I like Ford adding new features because once ANY of the big three venture into new territory, the others jump in with something new!

WE ALL WIN!

"Lariat, King Ranch, and Platinum F-150s are given a new four-wheel drive system that includes an automatic mode to augment its four modes in each range"

Does this mean Ford is putting in an Auto 4x4 type of thing? Kinda like my Chevy has? Because that is a wonderful feature.

Kind of sounds like it. I'm not sure what else they would mean by that. Chevy has had that for a while...

I tell ya, having Auto4x4 in the winter is GREAT. Flip that dial in November and flip it back in March. No probs in between. I'm not a fan of computers thinking for me, but they have that thing figured out.

Yeah I think that's what my Dad does around the farm in his truck (05' 1500, and now 10' 1500)

Did you see the quote I used in the past above about the Auto 4x4

Couldn't agree more

"and your bladder will certainly notice the 756-mile range of the 2012 F-150 EcoBoost 4X4, made possible by a new 36-gallon fuel tank."

And your wallet will notice it everytime you fill up 36 gallons of fuel.


I do like it, but would never buy it for the simple fact it is 2wd. Another thing I really wish Ford would change is the taillights. They are way to big and ugly.

Yeah.. I would have a hard time doing that as well.. But I think I've owned my truck over 3 years.. I think I've had to use 4x4 maybe 10-15 times..

It's came in handy when needed though.

Exactly, if I need it, I want it to be there.

I gotta say the new look to the fx2 makes me want to play lotto more often now! I'm very impressed with the new look of the F150 and the Raptor's suttle changes!

What the fWONk are people thinking?

"Hey, we have a black truck with flat black accessories; you know what would really finish the look up nicely???

Yep, raised white letter tires! "




Really?

Amen, IMO they should have made the badges and tailget decals flat black as well.
