Reviews Summary | |
Reviews SummaryIn its 14th generation and two years after a modest refresh, the 2026 Ford F-150 reshuffles standard and optional equipment across its eight trims, three beds, three cabs, and six powertrains. The electric F-150 Lightning ended production after the 2025 model year, leaving with it the potential for a plug-in hybrid in a future generation. For this test, we grabbed a low-level trim — the STX Lobo — to see how the F-150 fares with a traditional V8 and fewer features. Verdict: The F-150 is the full-size truck with the most versatility and configurations on the market today. | |
