Take A 360 Look Around The 2016 Ford F-150

See why the revolutionary 2016 Ford F-150 is making every other truck history.

Revolutionary materials and engineering combine with advanced technologies to help F-150 deliver the most towing, (1) best payload (2) and highest gas mileage in its class.(3) Plus, it boasts a 5-star safety rating from the NHTSA.(4)

High-strength, military grade, aluminum alloy sheet metal rides on the strongest F-150 frame ever. Together, they slash up to 700 pounds from the truck. Less weight in the truck allows more weight in the cargo box and on the trailer.

Other available innovations include:
• New Pro Trailer Backup Assist™ makes backing up a trailer as easy as turning a knob
• LED box lights brightly illuminate the bed
• A class-exclusive remote power tailgate release and side mirror-mounted spotlights to illuminate your worksite after the sun goes down
• Available 110-volt/400-watt plug-in outlet keeps tool batteries charged
• Available 8-inch productivity screen keeps you informed with crucial data

A Box Van Can Do A Lot Of Things Inexpensively

Note: Please turn sound up!

Tom Garcia of Marathon Truck Body shows off a 14' Dry Van Body mounted on an E350 Cutaway Chassis. Check out the Lift-Assist on the cargo ramp! Those things are heavy, but this feature sure makes it easy. Sometimes it is the simplest things that are meaningful, like that sliding door without rattles.

Since a Dry Van Body is just a box on wheels, there is so many modifications that can be made to make it more useful for individual company use, such as, side doors, walk-up side door openings, windows, translucent roof, E-Track, plywood lining, Gelcoat lining with added insulation for refrigeration to just keep things cool or to keep them frozen. Plus there is the ramp as shown, liftgates, railgates, swing-away doors rather than roll-up doors and the list goes on and on.

"The Big Boy" of Commercial Trucks: The F-550 HD Payload Pkg

Paul Brown of Geweke Ford in Yuba City CA shows us what he calls, "the Big Boy" in commercial trucks. This is the Super Duty F-550 HD chassis with the payload upgrade to 19,500 lbs. GVWR, and GCWR tow maximum of 33,000 lbs. If you have heavy equipment and tow as well, this truck has the stuff. The body mounted on this chassis is a Scelzi 12' Combo Body. The Combo Body has a work platform on the rear that is the perfect height to work from in the field. A lot of contractors prefer the combo body for that very reason.

You can see more on the specs of this body on the Scelzi website as http://www.seinc.com/truck-bodies/com..., and more about Geweke Ford at http://www.geweketrucks.com

Cargo Bed Enclosure or Roll Top Is Perfect Addition To Service Body

Paul Brown with Geweke Ford in Yuba City CA shows off a Service Body on a Ford Super Duty Chassis by Harbor Truck Bodies. This units has a 3-piece Cargo Bed Enclosure and Power Locking System, along with a Forklift Loadable Rack and Class IV Receiver. This is a great way to keep cargo out of sight and out of the weather too.

Work Smarter With Cargo Bed Technology In The 2015 F-150

Getting a large payload into your truck can be hard, heavy work. Nothing’s going to change that. But it’s repetitive. So if you can make it easier to access the bed you can save your knees here, your arms there and at the end of the day you get more done.

The Tow Test And Frame Twister! - Top Truck Challenge 2015

You know what a truck pull is, right? Well our tow test is way better: our track extends 150 feet, climbs 13 feet in elevation, and has a maximum angle of approximately 16 degrees. Each competitor’s rig is tethered to 5-ton 6x6 weighing in at over 36,000 pounds. Each competitor is allowed one pull, no time limit. This event grabs competitor’s full attention, because it’s the first event and has the potential to quickly weed out weak components.

Through the years, the Frame Twister has evolved, and for 2015 about half way into the course, competitors arrive at the infamous Squeeze Rock section facing boulders, the dogleg, and the dreaded log section. In case you’re wondering, the Frame Twister at Top Truck Challenge really has twisted vehicle frames over the years. It has also wasted driveshafts, destroyed tires, and thrashed suspensions. Each competitor is allowed 10 minutes to complete the Frame Twister course. Hey, you didn’t expect it to be a run-of-the-mill first day did you?
