The F-150 remains the Swiss Army knife of trucks, offering something for everyone but perfect for none.
Engine options for every need · Smart tech upgrades
Stiff rear suspension · Pricier options now optional
The 2026 Ford F-150 continues to be the benchmark for versatility in the truck world. What defines this truck is its ability to morph into whatever you need it to be, whether you're hauling lumber or navigating city streets. The engine choices are vast, ensuring there's a powertrain for every scenario, from the efficient hybrid to the beastly Raptor. What surprised us most was the tech upgrade; the cabin is now a digital playground, though not without its rough edges in terms of material quality in the mainstream trims. This truck is for someone who wants a reliable workhorse with the flexibility to handle a weekend adventure. However, be ready for a stiffer ride and a few extra dollars for features that were once standard.
Our pick: XLT SuperCrew ($54,900)
vs. 2026 Ram 1500: The Ram 1500 offers a more refined interior, but the F-150 takes the lead with its engine versatility and tech features.
