Thanks to the economical crisis that we seem to constantly be in and the fluctuation of gas prices from affordable to outrageous any consumers have changed their opinions on what they feel would be the best car for them to drive. Dealerships all across the country have found it a challenge to sell their SUV's and trucks because they do require so much attention and they are not the best when it comes to good fuel economy. However, there is still one truck that has proved itself above the rest and is one of the most popular - the 2007 Ford F-150.

When you drive the truck around when the bed is empty then you will be able to feel the smooth ride and easy handling that makes it a great ride. When riding in the SuperCrew cab you can fit at five to six people comfortably and without anyone complaining. The extended cab has less room - but you are still able to fit a couple people. The regular cabs are built with reverse opening doors that lead people to the bed of the truck.

While the ride is comfortable and smooth there is a downside to this truck. The engine is not what you would call top of the line and is not for the power hungry. The F-150 is equipped with a Triton 5.4 liter V8 engine that pushes out 300 horsepower and 365 pound foot of torque. What is impressive is the 10,500 pound tow rating. However, the truck is still much slower then much of its competition (Nissan Titan and Dodge Ram).

One of the main reasons for this is not just its engine - but mainly its curb weight. It is much heavier then other trucks on the market. Another issue that Ford needs to work with on newer models of the F-150 is the four speed automatic transmission that it uses. Many automakers have changed to using five speed automatics because it helps to improve upon fuel economy and acceleration.

It comes available in a wide range of body styles and equipment that will help to complete the use of your truck. It costs close to $14,000.
