| Capable, economical, refined. 2009 Ford F-150 nailed all
three.The F-150’s capability was easy to see while effortlessly
towing a near four-ton trailer up and down a hilly road, slogging
around an off-road course, dodging cones in accident-avoidance-type
maneuvers with a load in the bed, and accelerating away from
stoplights on public roads. Economy is simply measured:The
F-150 is a lot of truck for the money with a starting price
of just over $21,000 and popular trim levels available for
less than $30,000. Also, with the SFE package, fuel economy
reaches up to 21 miles per gallon on the highway, a number
that can't be beat by F-150's competitors.
