The 2018 Ford F-150 is one of the most anticipated pickup trucks this year. It is a given fact that the F-150 is the best-selling vehicle in the US and it has remained that way for several years. It has been undisputed and the addition of the latest F-150 will surely keep it comfortably sitting at the top.

According to The Times, Ford is also adding a diesel engine to the 2018 Ford F-150. This is by far one of the highlights as Ford never had the opportunity to release a diesel engine option for such pickup truck.

There are several updates to the 2018 Ford F-150 with the diesel option available to be on sale by summer of next year. For those who desire to have this truck without spending to much on fuel expenses, then the upcoming F-150 is the best option.

It is highly notable that Ford comes with updates to the F-150. A good example of this was back in 2015, the car manufacturer started to make the truck's body out of aluminum. This is for the purpose of decreasing the truck's weight which in turn increases fuel economy.

 

The upcoming F-150 will continue to be aluminum-sided. To keep it more exciting and with more variety, each trim will have a new grille. The new grille is reported to be wider than the current one. There are also new wheel designs available.

To keep the driver and passengers in ultimate safety, the 2018 Ford F-150 will also include automatic braking with pedestrian detection. It also boasts of an adaptive cruise control that works in stop-and-go traffic. To keep up with connectivity, it can even be a WiFi Hotspot for 10 mobile devices. This is definitely a great technology which elevates its level compared to other trucks in the market, or even to those to be officially released.

As added by US News and World Report, Ford's decision for offering a diesel engine option may be its answer to its competitor such as Nissan for coming up with a diesel engine Titan. Such pickup truck has been getting good reviews so it is normal for Ford to produce a counterpart which may even be better than the Japanese-made competitor.

As earlier reported, the 2018 Ford F-150 will have updated and redesigned grille and headlamps. To add to even more variety, it is also reported to come with new colors available to choose from. Surely, the upcoming pickup truck is going to be the best of its kind and will be unbeatable as soon as it hits dealerships across the country.
