6 Benefits of Getting a Tire Rotation for Your Ford

Choosing the right engine from the six available options is one of the biggest decisions you'll face when buying the 2025 Ford F-150. To help you make the right call, we'll break down what each brings to the table. 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6 This V6 has been putting in work for a solid decade now. It makes 325 horsepower and hits 400 lb-ft of torque at just 2750 RPM. For context, the 5.0-liter V8 needs to rev to 4,500 rpm to match that torque figure. As for fuel economy, the EPA says you're looking at around 19 mpg in the city and 25 mpg on the highway. The 2.7-liter is made from compacted graphite iron (the same tough stuff you'll find in heavy-duty diesel engines). Also, this engine is packed with cool features, including direct-mounted turbos for a sharper response, dual injection to help fight carbon buildup, electronic wastegates to reduce turbo blow-by, and a top-mounted cartridge oil filter that makes oil changes easy. more 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 If you're planning to tow something serious, this is the engine you want. It pumps out 400 horsepower and a massive 500 lb-ft of torque, with an available max towing capacity of up to 13,500 pounds and a payload rating of 2,440 pounds. In other words, it's the workhorse of the family. 3.5-liter PowerBoost Full-Hybrid V6 This setup pairs the 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 with a 47-horsepower electric motor to crank out a beefy 430 horsepower and 570 lb-ft of torque. That's enough to 11,200 pounds or haul 1,750 pounds in the bed. And no, it's not a plug-in hybrid, so it won't drive you across town on battery power alone, but it'll glide around the neighborhood in EV mode and silently coast when you're slowing down. Oh, and here's a sweet bonus: it comes with a built-in 2.4 kW generator(upgradeable to 7.2 kW). 5.0-liter Ti-VCT V8 This de-tuned Mustang engine delivers 400 horsepower and 410 lb-ft of torque, thanks to twin independent variable cam timing plus Ford's direct+ port fuel injection system. It offers a max towing capacity of 12,900 pounds and a payload rating of 2,225 pounds. 3.5-liter High Output EcoBoost V6 Only found under the hood of the F-150 Raptor, this twin-turbo beast pushes out 450 horsepower and 510 lb-ft of torque, which should be more than enough to conquer dunes, trails, and everything in between. 5.2-liter Supercharged V8 This is the most powerful high-performance engine ever put into an F-150 truck. It's exclusive to the Raptor R and rated at 720 horsepower and 640 lb-ft of torque. You really can't go wrong with any of these engines. Want to see how they feel on the road?

The 2025 Ford Explorer is a performance-oriented mid-size SUV built for families looking for a three-row SUV with an edge. From its bold and commanding presence to its available twin-turbo V6, the Explorer is engineered to steal the spotlight and dominate any stretch of road with ease. Thrilling Power The Ford Explorer comes ready to leave other road users in the dust, courtesy of two turbocharged engines. The standard 2.3-liter turbo-four eagerly produces 300 horses and 310 lb-ft of torque, launching this hulking SUV to 60 mph in just 6 seconds. This means that even the base model can easily outrun the majority of vehicles on the road today. It also enables a robust 5,000-pound towing capacity to ensure maximum practicality. The available 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6 cranks out a ferocious 400 HP and 415 pound-feet of torque, slashing the 0-60 time to just 5 seconds, putting performance cars on notice. Like the turbo-four, it can tow up to 5,000 pounds. And despite the significant power boost, it remains impressively efficient, getting up to 26 MPG on the highway. Still, the base engine's 28 MPG highway rating makes it a compelling choice for drivers looking for a balance of power and efficiency. more Athletic Performance The Explorer, despite its heft, delivers razor-sharp handling and control, thanks to its performance-focused engineering. The first indication that it means business is its standard rear-wheel-drive configuration. This is by design to give it superb stability, courtesy of the inherent near-perfect weight distribution that comes with this configuration. This allows the Explorer to remain composed when carving twisty back roads at high speeds. Meanwhile, the 10-speed automatic transmission is butter-smooth, ensuring effortless power delivery for a responsive driving experience. Several standard and available driver-assistance features come in clutch to enhance safety, comfort, and control when handling this beast. Some of them include adaptive cruise control, forward collision mitigation, intersection collision mitigation, evasive steering assistance, lane-centering system, blind-spot monitoring, a surround-view camera system, parking sensors, and more! Off-Road Capability The Explorer comes with various available off-road features to allow you to explore remote landscapes with ease. They include an intelligent four-wheel-drive system, a terrain management system with terrain-specific drive modes, nearly 8 inches of ground clearance, and Hill Descent Control.

Upmarket amenities it can come with include a twin-panel sunroof, premium leather upholstery, heated, ventilated, and massaging seats, second-row captain's chairs, a 14-speaker Bang & Olufsen sound system, wireless phone charging, a 13.2-inch infotainment touchscreen with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and Google built-in, three-zone automatic climate control, and more!
