Lewis Automotive Group has been bringing the Ford F-150 to their NWA customers for decades now, and it’s become a staple on the Arkansas roads thanks to the design and reliability of the Ford brand. The F-150 has a trend to be much more than just a pickup truck, by providing more than just an engine in the front, bed in the back, and a couple seats and steering wheel. The powertrain options keep expanding, from the V-6 and V-8 options, to a hybrid engine or even an all-electric setup coming to you in the form of the F-150 Lightning. And before you think that an electric motor will cause you to miss out on the power of the Ford truck reputation, the Lightning is going to feature an AWD powertrain that can rocket from 0-60 in 4 seconds, thanks to the 563 horsepower, 775 lb-ft of torque, and a max towing capacity of 10,000 lbs.
Looking for a super-powered truck built for going off-road? Ford introduced its latest brainchild in 2022, the Ford F-150 Raptor R. This burly truck has been confirmed by Ford to have a souped-up version of the engine found in the Mustang GT500, with a 5.2L V-8 under the hood, cranking out 760 horsepower, and sitting on top of 37-inch tires and a whole other range of off-road accessories.
The safety features of the new 2022 Ford F-150 are also getting a few upgrades. You can already expect the standard features of automatic high beams and windshield wipers, hill start assist, brake auto-hold, and front automatic emergency braking. Higher end trims also feature blind-spot monitoring and a rear cross-traffic alert. On top of that, the available Co-Pilot 360 Assist 2.0 Suite adds in even more safety features, such as emergency evasive steering, lane-keep assist, adaptive cruise control, and intersection collision avoidance.
Speaking of interior technology, the 2022 F-150 continues to bring a ton of options, including a standard 8.0 inch infotainment touchscreen, outfitted with Ford’s Sync4 interface that includes the capability for over-the-air updates for new features and data. Several USB ports are standard on the interior, as well as available upgrades such as a wireless charging pad, a larger 12” touchscreen, and a Wi-Fi hotspot that can support up to 10 devices at once within 50 feet of the truck.
