BROOKLYN, NY, December 22, 2011 (Press-News.org) The 2012 winner of Motor Trend magazine's Truck of the Year award is the 2012 Ford F-150. Bay Ridge Ford is pleased to announce that the 2012 F-150 is available to their customers in Brooklyn, NY. The F-150 was recognized for its performance, capability, and design.
Motor Trend commented that what stood out about the 2012 Ford F-150 was its performance with the EcoBoost engine. The Platinum edition of the 2012 Ford F-150 holds a twin-turbo 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 engine. The EcoBoost V6 engine has the performance of a V8 but the fuel efficiency of a V6. On the highway, the F-150 achieves up to 22 MPG. This engine also produces 420 lb-ft of torque and has undergone over 1,900 hours or rigorous testing to ensure that it will hold up after years of wear and tear.
The 2012 Ford F-150 was also recognized for its capability in towing and payload. The 2012 F-150 has a best-in-class trailer-towing capability of 11,300 lbs. This capability, along with the standard Trailer Sway Control allow just about anything to be safely hauled from one place to another. The standard 6-speed automatic transmission has a towhaul mode that drivers can use when they are using the trailer to optimize the F-150's performance. The 2012 Ford F-150 also has a best-in-class payload capability of 3,050 lbs. This truck has the largest cargo box in its class, providing 81.3 cubic feet of space.
Motor Trend also recognized the 2012 Ford F-150 for its quality and tough interior design. The 2012 F-150 provides a quiet ride down the road with its stiff frame and body, shear-style body mounts, door seals, Quiet Steel, and a noise-absorbing headliner. Storage space can be found inside the F-150's cabin as well. Large storage pins exist inside the door panels. With the SuperCrew F-150, drivers can fold up the 60/40 split rear seat to carry extra items. The F-150 also includes the SYNC AppLink system for drivers to enjoy hands-free calling.
