2010 Ford F-150

The biggest change for the 2010 Ford F-150 is the arrival of the SVT Raptor, a factory-built truck designed for high-speed off-road driving. The Harley-Davidson edition also returns, but the rest of the F-150 remains close to the redesigned 2009 model.

About the 2010 Ford F-150

12th generation F-150 (2009-2014), second model year

Ford positions the 2010 F-150 as a do-everything full-size pickup that can be a basic jobsite truck, family daily driver, tow vehicle, off-road machine, or upscale cruiser depending on trim. The core pitch is strength, towing and payload, safety, and a quieter, more comfortable cabin than many buyers expect from a truck. What sets the F-150 apart is how broad the lineup is, from simple XL work trucks to luxury and specialty models like Platinum and Raptor.

The 2010 lineup stretches from the basic, work-focused XL to the leather-lined King Ranch and more modern-looking Platinum. FX4 provides everyday off-road hardware, while the new SVT Raptor adds FOX shocks, a wider stance, long-travel suspension, skid plates, and a locking rear differential. The returning Harley-Davidson edition emphasizes custom styling and comfort, including heated and cooled front seats and a rearview camera.

What changed, by category

Powertrain
Flexible-fuel powertrains replace the gas-only entries on FX4, King Ranch, Lariat, and Platinum. Flexible-fuel versions also join the XL and XLT lineups.
Styling
The Harley-Davidson edition returns as a limited custom trim with a darker, more specialized look and an upgraded cabin.
Safety
Ford revises the brake system with larger rotors and related hardware updates. MyKey programmable owner controls expand to nearly the entire lineup and remain optional only on XL.
Tech
King Ranch and Platinum add heated second-row seats and a power-sliding rear window with defrost.
Structural
The new SVT Raptor trim brings a wider body and purpose-built off-road suspension with FOX shocks, 11.2 inches of front travel, and 12.1 inches of rear travel.
