2021 Ford F-150 vs. 2021 Ram
Why choose the Ford F-150?
The world of full-size pickups is an intensely competitive one. Two of the tops dogs in the competition are the Ford F-150 and the Ram 1500. Here's how these trucks compare side by side in the 2021 model year.
Strength
Drivers who are looking for a truck that can handle its own at the worksite might consider the 2021 F-150. The Ram 1500 can handle quite a bit: 12,750 pounds in towing and 2,300 pounds of payload. But the new F-150 can take on even more: up to 14,000 pounds of trailer or 3,325 pounds of payload when properly equipped. If you don't need these trucks' maximum available strength levels, you're in luck — even the entry-level F-150 is stronger than the Ram 1500.
Unique Features
If you're not focused purely on strength, the full-sized truck competition becomes a battle of cleverness. The Ram 1500 has its side-swinging 60/40-split tailgate that's been drawing drivers to it. However, the 2021 Ford F-150 has been completely redesigned, bringing with it several interesting features that are worth checking out.
One of our favorites is the available center console that folds out into a workspace. To make room for this desk, the shifter folds flat. To further its go-anywhere mobile worksite status, the new F-150 can be outfitted with three in-bed power outlets that turn your truck into a mobile generator.
