Technology can add to a vehicle's entertainment offerings, but it can also improve safety. Comparing the usefulness of digital features can help New Westminster shoppers differentiate between close competitors like the 2020 Ram 1500 and 2020 Ford F-150.Here is a look at which of the two aforementioned midsize pickups makes better use of computerized components.
Displays
The 2020 Ram 1500 features the Uconnect infotainment unit, which offers sound system controls, access to data, exterior camera views, and navigation. Depending on the trim level, the touchscreen display can be up to 12 inches. Â
Ford is reportedly waiting until the 2021 model year to update its interface, so its screens currently remain smaller than Ram's. However, both vehicles have drivers-side LCDs that show vital information about vehicle systems.Â
Safety
The 2020 Ram 1500 offers blind-spot monitoring, adaptive cruise control, forward collision warning, and 360-degree exterior picture. The trucks also have ParkSense auto parking assist.Â
Ford's safety offerings include exterior images with up to four angles showing simultaneously. The F-150 also has front accident avoidance, a rearview camera, and lane-keeping assistant as part of its Co-Pilot 360. Some tech features are optional add-ons at lower trim levels.Â
