“Not only is the F150 awesome looking, the 3.5 Ecoboost also has plenty of power, great towing capacity and decent fuel economy. Lets not forget the roominess of the crew cab. The interior design of the Lariat is to die for!”
2019 Ford F-150: What's New, Specs & Features
Last updated August 4, 2026
The 2019 Ford F-150 is a light-update year, not a redesign. The key change is standard forward-collision warning with automatic emergency braking on every trim.
About the 2019 Ford F-150
13th generation (2015-2020), second model year after the 2018 mid-cycle exterior and powertrain update
Ford positioned the F-150 as a full-size truck built to cover both serious work and everyday use. Its identity centered on strong towing and hauling capability, a fully boxed steel frame with an aluminum body, and an unusually wide range of cab, bed, engine, and trim combinations. That breadth let the same model serve as a basic job-site truck, a comfortable family vehicle, a luxury pickup, or a high-speed off-road truck.
The 2019 lineup stretches from the work-focused XL to the better-connected XLT, whose standard 8-inch touchscreen supports Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Limited pairs a luxury cabin and massaging front seats with a 450-hp twin-turbo V6, while Raptor uses that engine with specialized off-road suspension and low-speed Trail Control. King Ranch and Platinum emphasize leather, premium audio, built-in navigation, and added comfort features.
What changed, by category
Powertrain
Limited adopts the Raptor's high-output 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6, rated at 450 horsepower and 510 lb-ft of torque. It also gains a 36-gallon fuel tank and a model-specific dual-exhaust system.
Safety
Forward-collision warning with automatic emergency braking becomes standard on every trim. Automatic high-beam headlights are also standard across the lineup.
Tech
XLT gains a standard 8-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Raptor gains standard Bluetooth, smartphone integration, a touchscreen, and USB ports.
Structural
Raptor gains FOX 3.0 internal-bypass shocks with electronic adjustment that continuously responds to the terrain, plus Trail Control for managing throttle and braking at low speeds off-road.

2019 Ford F-150 Reviews
What owners are saying about the 2019 Ford F-150.
4.1
2019 Ford F-150
(306 reviews)
“I love my F-150, my only complaints would be the non keyless start/remote entry, and the manual seats. It sucks that not even a $42,000 truck doesn't get you those luxuries. But besides that it's been a dream. The 5.0L paired with the 10 speed transmission is very fun, it's pretty quick for a ""base model"" pickup truck.”
“At speeds above 40, there is a transmission shudder. This is not at this point covered by a warranty, although I am investigating this issue. I think I am going to have to pay to have it fixed.”
