Is Ford changing the F-150 in 2025?
Last year’s 2024 model completely revamped the F-150, and for 2025 the model remains mostly unchanged. The main change for last year that really stuck out was the discontinuation of the naturally aspirated V6, replaced by the now standard turbocharged 2.7-liter V-6.
Additionally, Ford Blue Cruise, an offering that’s slowly made its way into more and more Fords lately, was added. A 12-inch infotainment screen comes standard across the lineup. The full offering of the F-150 for 2025 reads below, with the base XL model starting at an MSRP of $39,345, and the range topping King Ranch/Platinum trims starting at around $76,800 each.
From XL to King ranch, the trims are:
- XL - $39,345
- STX - $44,910
- XLT - $47,590
- Lariat - $65,255
- Tremor - $66,810
- King Ranch - $76,800
- Platinum - $76,800
Of these, it’s the XLT that comes recommended by Car and Driver, who also cite the optional Hybrid as a viable option for the amount of gas it saves long term.
What is included in the Ford Premium Package?
The Platinum trim starts at the same MSRP as the King Ranch, and comes with a Premium Equipment Group that adds a Head-up Display and a twin panel Monoroof, as well as a custom sound system. Additionally, a special exterior and interior trim, unique from the King Ranch, are included.
Pro Power Onboard, is another feature, and it adds household-style plugs that can be used to power tools, electronics or small appliances. A Tow/Haul package is another feature that starts on the Premium trim, as well as an Integrated trailer brake controller, which allows for the trailer brakes to be adjusted from the driver’s seat.
That’s already quite the list of features, but the F-150 continues to add to them with Onboard Scales which measure and display the weight of the F-150's payload. Also available are key luxury items such as its own power-adjustable, heated steering wheel, and finally, upgraded front seats and heated rear seats.
It’s certainly a package that provides a great deal of bang for your buck, stopping at nothing to ensure that you’re provided with a truly luxury experience.
