The Ford F-150 vs. The Competition
There's No Comparison - the 2025 Ford F-150
is the Truck that Drivers can Count On
At Steet Ponte Ford in Yorkville, we offer drivers in our area an extensive new vehicle inventory that includes a variety of the newest cars, trucks, and SUVs from the legendary Ford brand name, including the perennially popular Ford F-150 pickup truck. We strive to help drivers from the Rome area find the perfect vehicle fit for their needs, and one way we do this, is by providing our customers with in-depth details on each of our vehicles and by demonstrating what sets Ford engineering apart with side-by-side comparisons.
As one of the most popular vehicles in the country, the powerful and well-equipped new Ford F-150 practically recommends itself. But we know that it's not the only full-sized, half-to pickup in the Whitesboro and New Hartford area that's competing for your attention. To help you understand what makes it the best truck around, here are some details that dive into what sets it apart from similarly sized pickups from Chevrolet and Ram.
Ford F-150 vs. Chevy Silverado 1500
For 2025, the Ford F-150 gives drivers a long list of engine options to choose from, with a range of power outputs that delivers the utility and performance they love. There are seven powertrains altogether for the traditional lineup, with which one you get on your truck dependent on trim choice and what you're looking for. One of these great engine choices is a smooth and efficient hybrid system, known as the Ford PowerBoost, which produces 430 horsepower and 570 pound-feet of torque. While the Chevy Silverado 1500 does have a smaller menu of four engine options, it's missing the alternative and fuel efficiency of a hybrid, which doesn't exist in the truck's lineup.
Regardless of which Ford F-150 trim or engine configuration you select, every model comes with a spacious and comfortable cabin that's roomier than the Chevy Silverado 1500. For example, sitting inside the four-door crew cab version of either truck, you'll find that our Ford model has more shoulder room and elbow room in both rows of seats, as well as extra headroom in the backseat.
Ford F-150 vs. Ram 1500
When it comes to cutting-edge safety features and driver's aids, the Ford F-150 tops the Ram 1500, hands down. Every F-150 in the lineup comes with standard lane departure warning, forward collision mitigation, auto high beams, and automatic emergency braking, with more safety features added as you explore all trims. However, the Ram 1500 doesn't offer any advanced safety features as standard equipment, not adding them until the second and third trims in the lineup.
Plus, for our customers who love a great pickup but who crave the efficiency and groundbreaking performance of an electric vehicle, the new Ford F-150 Lightning is the best choice. The first-ever all-electric Ford pickup, this state-of-the-art model combines the signature F-150 power and style that drivers love, with the electric performance they crave. The Ram 1500 doesn't have an electric model, which means the F-150 Lightning is your best choice for an electrified pickup performance.
