Rough roads demand precise handling - which is why Ford has fused the 2020 F-150 with an available electronic locking rear differential. Achieve optimal control (no matter how wild the terrain or heavy the payload) with help from this advanced stability system.To dominate every road engage the new F-150’s rear differential. With the press of a button this function will automatically lock the back axle, affording improved friction generation between the wheels. This enhances handling, allowing drivers to more efficiently manoeuvre around tight turns and over sharp inclines. It also increases balance, with both the standard AdvanceTrac and Roll Stability systems complementing each rev.
Â
AdvanceTrac - boasting gyroscopic sensors that identify pitch and yaw, this function bolsters the rear differential. It helps to stabilize trajectory and adjust performance outputs with each changing environment.
Roll Stability - this system seamlessly corrects braking pressure and engine power, controlling acceleration rates to accommodate any terrain. When used in conjunction with the differential it creates a smooth ride.

It’s a familiar strain - with your truck buckling beneath a payload weight, struggling on straightaways and curves alike. This is no smooth ride. Instead it’s a series of suspension rattles, and you worry that something is going to (finally) break.Ford suggests upgrading your experience. Slide inside the 2020 F-150 XL and achieve seamless suspension performance.
The new XL rests on a fully-boxed steel frame. Anchoring this is an independent front suspension, which utilizes coil springs to achieve optimum articulation; while at the rear are two-stage variable leafs that help to counter friction. Integrated sway control technology assures a smooth experience, intuitively adjusting roll rates and trajectory; and power rack-and-pinion steering allows drivers to connect directly to the system, providing improved responses.
These technologies let the 2020 F-150 XL more nimbly manoeuvre through Okanagan’s downtown streets and off-road paths alike - especially when combined with AdvanceTrac capability. This features combats changes in pitch, using sensors to detect sudden deviations. Through this precise handling is achieved.
Curious about the new F-150 XL and its suspension system? Contact our team today to learn more - and don’t hesitate to schedule a test-drive in one of our available Ford models.

Heavy hauls demand exceptional power - and this is why Ford has fused its 2020 F-150 with an available V8 engine. This suite assures dynamic performance (no matter how demanding the payload), and it promises class-leading strength with every rev.Available on the new F-150 is the 5.0L V8. This block will optimize each sequence, with its aluminum design proving ideal for temperature conduction (it will remove excess heat from the combustion chamber, delivering precise control while accelerating). Roller finger followers bolster the valves, while port-fuel and direct-injection technologies combine to enhance fuel distribution. A 10-speed automatic transmission anchors every press of the pedal, utilizing wide-gear spacing and drag-reduction actions to achieve a seamless low-to-mid transition.
Through this design, the 2020 F-150 generates segment-leading power - with its V8 engine producing up to 395 HP (at 5750 RPMs) and 400 lb.-ft of torque (at 4500 RPMs). This assures optimal performance in BC and beyond.

It’s a series of everyday tasks - light cargo, downtown drop-offs, the constant stop-and-go of Okanagan traffic. This doesn’t mean that drivers should sacrifice performance, however. These commercial ventures still deserve the best… and the 2020 F-150 provides that.Beneath the hood of the new F-150 sits a 3.3L Ti-VCT V6. Though it serves as the base-level engine, its outputs are anything but standard - connecting BC operators to 290 HP (at 6500 RPMs) and 265 lb.-ft of torque (at 4000 RPMs). A multi-core PCM anchors each rev, assuring smooth control; while direct-acting mechanical bucket valves bolster sequencing. An electronic six-speed transmission further enhances capability, delivering seamless gear changes and three selectable drive-modes (Normal, Tow/Haul, and Sport).
Also improving the everyday experience is the inclusion of port-fuel and direct-injection technology - which optimises fuel distribution. This F-150 can achieve up to 12.1 L/100km in the city and 9.3 L/100km on the highway, allowing drivers to focus on cargo instead of finding a station.
The 2021 F-150 proves an ideal for the commercial market. To learn more about this Ford platform - or to schedule a test-drive in one of our available V6 models - contact us today.
