![]() ![]() You can stash small items in there so they don't roll around, or with the pull of a couple levers fold the tote completely flat, so you can slide larger cargo right into the cab across its nearly flat floor. For added versatility, the 60/40 split lower cushion lifts, revealing a collapsible storage bin. Rear-seat passengers have little to be jealous of because this crew-cab truck offers miles of legroom and is plenty cushy. They lie nearly flat, making them perfect for catching a few Z's during your lunch break. Pay an additional $340 and you can really relax with the Max Recline buckets. The front seats in this Ford are all-day comfortable, plus they're heated, ventilated and will even give you a massage, something that helps keep fatigue at bay on long drives. It's a toss-up if this F-150's interior is better than the highly regarded Ram 1500's, but you can't go wrong with either truck. This example features Carmello leather seating surfaces that feel great and look even better, their warm tan color brightening what would otherwise be a pretty dark cabin. The pleasingly simple dashboard layout is not only eye-catching, it makes the climate and audio controls easier to see and operate. The Platinum model is chock full of soft materials, there's beautiful stitching, real wood accents and attractively textured hard plastics. ![]() One area where the F-150 is miles ahead of its Chevy counterpart is interior quality. ![]() Sure, sticking to around-town driving or country two-lane roads would probably get you much closer to 24 than cruising at 80 mph, but this lackluster performance is still a bit surprising.

Unfortunately, in real-world use this truck's fuel economy estimates are more optimistic than someone that just signed up for a multi-level marketing scheme.

In addition to any interior plugs, that electricity is easily accessible through four 120-volt (20-amp) outlets and one NEMA 240-volt (30 amp) socket mounted right in the cargo box. The twin-turbo 3.5-liter V-6 is rated up to 18 mpg city and 24 highway. But for just $750 more you can get 7.2 kilowatts' worth of power in the F-150, enough to run circular saws, drills, air compressors and more, basically an entire construction site. The EPA estimates the 2022 F-150 with the turbocharged 2.7-liter V-6 will earn up to 20 mpg city and 26 highway. PowerBoost models come standard with 2.4 kilowatts of available juice and dual 120-volt (20-amp) bed-mounted outlets.
