Compare the New Ford F-150 to the Toyota Tundra

The full-size truck segment is one of the most competitive in the market. At Nielsen Ford of Sussex, we serve Sussex, NJ, by comparing the new F-150 to the Toyota Tundra to help you decide on the best match for your driving needs. You will find the new F-150 provides a superior driving experience by almost every metric, helping you take on challenging jobs and enjoy your time behind the wheel.

The F-Series is the best-selling truck, and it's known for its class-leading capabilities and features. The Tundra provides many impressive features and offers a high degree of reliability, making it an attractive option for some. However, when the new F-150 and Tundra go head to head, it's clear that the F-150 stands out in all the categories that count most.

Design

While the matter of exterior appearance is largely subjective, we believe you will find the new F-150 the more attractive option. The F-150 has a relaxed, modern, yet timeless appearance, while the new Tundra leans into what's currently fashionable with a large grille that may be off-putting to some. Both trucks offer off-roading variations and premium exterior stylings for higher trim levels.

The story is similar for both of the interiors of these trucks. The Tundra offers modern stylings, while the F-150 offers dials and buttons that may seem old-fashioned but provide a tried-and-true interface. There are more similarities in the rear seats with two types of USB ports and a 120-volt outlet. However, you will find more flexibility and utility with the F-150's available flat floor and fold-away storage bins, while the Tundra doesn't offer a comparable feature.

You can count on these trucks to offer large touchscreen displays. However, the new F-150 provides a more intuitive interface, letting you enjoy a split screen for more than one feature.

Towing and Hauling

If you're selecting a full-size truck, you are likely looking for one with impressive towing capabilities to match your driving needs around Vernon, NJ. The new Tundra provides up to 12,000 pounds of towing and 1,940 pounds of payload. The new F-150 lets you tackle more challenging jobs with more confidence by offering up to 14,000 pounds of towing capability and 3,310 pounds of payload.

The new F-150 also provides smarter towing technology than the Tundra. The available Pro Trailer Backup Assist system for the F-150 lets the driver steer the trailer in reverse with a dial on the dashboard. The Tundra offers Straight Path Assist, which will automatically keep the trailer straight once you have determined where you want to go. The F-150 provides a complete trailering assistance feature that accounts for maneuvering in tight spaces, while the Tundra's seems only to complete half of the job.

Performance

The new F-150 is the obvious choice for many drivers around Lake Hopatcong for its broad range of engine options and powerful performance. While the new Tundra comes with an impressive twin-turbo V6 engine, it only offers one other engine option, a hybrid powertrain. The new F-150 offers six engine options, letting you discover the right match for your driving needs.

Even when comparing the F-150's 3.5-liter EcoBoost® V6 to the Tundra's 3.4-liter V6, the F-150 offers noticeably faster acceleration. The new F-150 even offers an exclusive high-output 3.5-liter EcoBoost® engine for its Raptor® model, optimizing off-road adventures near Newton, NJ. You will find many impressive performance features available for the new F-150, including selectable drive modes and an optional 4WD system.
