The Sky’s the Limit with the Ford F-150
Ford’s F-Series pickups are well-known as the top-selling trucks in America for 40 years running. F-150 pickups make up a significant chunk of those sales, with consumers and businesses alike taking advantage of the variety of available options and many different models – all “Built Ford Tough.”
Many F-150 enthusiasts have taken the pickup to the next level, with custom enhancements that create unique one-of-a-kind vehicles for work and play, or a combination of the two.
Imagination is the Only Limiting Factor
F-150 trucks have plenty going for them, but many owners take matters into their own hands to customize their vehicles to look or perform above and beyond the norm.
Ready for Running in the Desert
Transitioning the F-150 into a Baja-friendly beast doesn’t necessarily call for a Raptor. F-150s with fiberglass fender and bed replacements can be found traversing the desert courses with flared fenders to accommodate those oversized tires and extended suspensions. You will find many Ford pickups traversing these challenging courses with ease.
No Age Discrimination for F-150 Owners
Older F-150 pickups are just as cherished as newer models, as shown by models found at car shows, those driven daily with considerable mileage on the odometers, and even many running off-road courses.
Those owners stand by their trusty pickups, making custom upgrades, and adding equipment to the vehicles that they’ve relied on for years. When the time eventually comes to move on to another pickup, chances are it will be another F-150.
A Favorite “Project” Pickup
Even when experts take on a challenge to build a project vehicle, they often turn to the F-150 for a starting point. Case in point: Four Wheeler magazine chose a 1991 F-150 for their base when they wanted to build a vehicle that would look great, be reliable, and be as comfortable off-road as on the highway.
Custom shows abound with Ford F-Series trucks. The world’s most premier display of automotive prowess – the Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) show, always presents an impressive population of Ford pickups that have been taken to the next level – or even up a few more levels. Perhaps that’s what inspired Ford’s “Go Further” slogan.
Make a Career out of the F-150
With the enormous popularity of the F-150, it’s no wonder that many after-market companies have made a successful business of custom enhancements, accessories, and total upgrades of the pickup.
Not only will these custom companies turn an F-150 into a unique personal statement, their handiwork can transform an already attractive vehicle into a road-ready piece of performance art. Through specialty paint jobs, lifting, custom wheels, performance equipment, and special lighting arrays, an F-150 becomes even more attention-grabbing.
Specialty dealers even have standard F-150 custom treatments ready to go, right out of their inventory. No waiting for that special vehicle that you’ve been dreaming about.
Ford makes it Easy
Since the Ford F-Series pickups debuted in 1948, Ford has continued the trend of providing consumers and businesses with reliable, tough vehicles that stand the test of time.
Never satisfied with maintaining the status quo, Ford engineers combine customer reviews and suggestions with new technology to create the performance and handling drivers expect from their vehicles.
Engine options are available that meet the demands of every payload requirement, while still maintaining impressive mileage ratings and meeting environmental concerns. Trim and appearance options can satisfy every taste, and creature comforts will place the driver and passengers in even more luxury than ever before.
It’s certainly easy enough to build the F-150 that satisfies nearly every consumer’s needs right off the showroom floor.
