2021 Ford F-150 XL
The Ford F-150 XL is the standard trim level for this rugged truck, and it sets a strong foundation. It comes equipped with SYNC®4, which includes:
- Wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™
- Ford+Alexa
- Over-the-Air Updates
- Natural voice control
Staying connected while on the go has never been easier. Use SYNC®4 to play your favorite songs, navigate compatible apps, and so much more.
Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking is also standard with this trim level. Using front-mounted technology, your F-150 XL will alert you to a potential frontal collision. If need be, it may also provide automatic emergency braking to prevent a collision.
XLT
The XLT trim level for the Ford F-150 takes everything in the base trim and adds in even more convenience and technology. For example, it comes with Ford Co-Pilot 360™ 2.0, a comprehensive suite of safety features that further helps monitor your vehicle’s surroundings.
Some of the driver-assist features in this suite include:
- Lane-Keeping System
- Reverse Sensing System
- And more!
Speaking of technology upgrades, the F-150 XLT trim also includes an optional 8-inch touchscreen display—a screen that’s almost twice as large as the one offered with the XL.
This trim also features standard lumbar support seats for the driver and the front passenger.
LARIAT
The 2021 Ford F-150 LARIAT trim level piles on even more capability with the standard 2-speed automatic 4WD system with neutral towing capability. It also comes standard with a Class IV trailer hitch receiver with Smart Trailer Tow Connector.
You’ll have an abundance of luxury inside, including a leather-trimmed, 10-way power driver’s seat. It also has a leather-wrapped steering wheel and Intelligent Access with push-button start. The latter feature allows you to enter and start the car without fishing for your keys in your pocket.
King Ranch
The Ford F-150 King Ranch trim level adds even more towing control with the standard trailer brake controller. This feature links the brakes of your trailer with that of your truck, so you can bring everything to a stop with the simple press of a pedal.
It also adds even more fun to every drive with the B&O Sound System by Bang & Olufsen with HD Radio™ Technology, which includes the placement of eight strategic speakers and a subwoofer.
Plus, if you need help reaching your destination, simply tell SYNC®4 with Enhanced Voice Recognition where you want to go. It’ll plug in the coordinates and provide you with turn-by-turn directions.
If you run into inclement weather, the Rain-Sensing Windshield Wipers will automatically turn on and adjust their speed to match the rate of precipitation on the windshield.
Platinum
With the Platinum trim, you’ll get even more Ford Co-Pilot360™ technologies, including Intelligent Adaptive Cruise Control. This cutting-edge system helps you maintain a safe distance between you and the vehicle ahead of you, even while driving in traffic.
It can use Speed Sign Recognition and Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop-and-Go to keep you moving at a safe speed and distance. If the vehicle ahead of you slows down, the system will slow down to maintain this safe distance.
Limited
The Limited trim keeps you on the road longer with its 36-gallon extended range fuel tank when it is equipped with the available 3.5L PowerBoost™ Full Hybrid V6 engine. It goes the distance while standing tall on 22-inch polished aluminum wheels.
You’ll also have a few more driver-assist features up your sleeve, such as:
- 360-Degree Camera
- Active Park Assist 2.0
Active Park Assist 2.0 makes parallel parking your pickup even easier. It’ll help you identify a parallel or a perpendicular parking spot and then provide prompts to shift, accelerate, and brake while automatically steering you into the space.
Tremor
If you’re looking to make waves on some off-road trails, then consider the 2021 Ford F-150 Tremor. This trim is armed with off-road front and rear shocks embellished with the Tremor logo to help you take on mud, sand, and gravel with ease. This feature is tuned for softer damping at low speeds for rock crawls as well.
When taking the path less traveled, you’ll also be happy to have 33-inch General Grabber all-terrain tires, which offer a maximum ground clearance of 9.4 inches and allow you to cruise over the obstacles in your path easily. These tires are further accentuated by stylish and commanding 18-inch aluminum wheels with a dark matte finish.
Raptor
If you’re looking for the ultimate in off-roading performance, turn to the top of the pack: The F-150 Raptor. This trim is not only outfitted with a high-output V6 engine for the most robust performance this truck has to offer, but it also sits 12 inches off the ground to command attention and assist with off-road maneuvers.
When summitting small mountains and climbing over boulders, you’ll be happy to have a five-link rear suspension with a Panhard rod by your side. With 24-inch coil springs, it’s the longest in its class and can send more torque to the rear wheels. The result is a more responsive drive when trekking over unpredictable terrain and better handling and acceleration on the highway.
