The biggest difference between the SuperCab and SuperCrew configurations comes with their rear legroom, as the SuperCrew offers 43.6 inches, and the SuperCab provides 33.5 inches of legroom for backseat passengers.
Other Truck Brands come with Different Cargo Box Sizes, is This True for the F-150?
Yes, in addition to their different cab assizes, the Ford F-150 comes with different cargo box sizes as well. The 5.5-foot box of the base and Raptor trims holds about 52.8 cubic feet of cargo, while the available 6.5-foot box holds up to 62.3 cubic feet of cargo. The largest 8.0-foot cargo box holds up to 77.4 cubic feet of cargo.
What Engine Options Are Available?
The Ford F-150 comes available with six available engines, both promising power and economy. The 3.5-liter, 375-horsepower EcoBoost® V6 engine generates 470 pound-feet of engine torque, while the 3.0-liter 25-horsepower Power Stroke® Turbo Diesel provides 440 pound-feet and can travel up to 30 mpg on the highway.

The most powerful available engine comes available on the Raptor/Limited trims: a High-Output 3.5-liter, 450-horsepower EcoBoost® engine, which cranks up 510 pound-feet of torque.
Can the Ford F-150 Tow a Boat?
Yes, the available engines and weight ratio of the Ford F-150 make it an optimal choice for heavy-duty towing. However, you should keep in mind the power output of your chosen engine and drivetrain as some four-wheel-drive F-150 models provide more capability, but 4X2 models can as well. As an example: the base 325-horsepower EcoBoost® V6 engine can tow up to 7,600 lbs., but with 4X4, its maximum trailering capability expands to 8,500 lbs. However, the High-Output V6 model can tow up to 11,100 lbs. with 4X2, but lowers to 9,300 lbs. with 4X4.
What is the Most that the F-150 Can Tow?
With the High Output V6 engine, the Ford F-150 can tow up to 11,100 lbs., with the SuperCrew cab configuration and 4X2 drivetrain. However, through the Power Stroke® Diesel V6 engine, SuperCrew cab, and 4X4, the truck will tow up to 10,700 lbs., which many drivers consider just as adequate.
Is the Ford F-150 Good for Off-Roading?
Absolutely! If you feel the need for adventure, it may interest you to know that the F-150 sits at a high ground clearance and offers an adaptable suspension to make any ride smoother. Drivers who want to enjoy the most off-road endurance should go with the F-150 Raptor, which upgrades the truck with all types of useful tools for the great outdoors, including FOX® Live Valve Shocks, the Terrain Management System™, all-terrain tires, and Trail Control™.
