They have a lot of similar lines, similar models, and designs for a similar customer base. So, it makes sense to compare the Ford F-150 vs Chevy Silverado because these two trucks are both designed to do the same things. For clarification, we’re going to be using the latest model releases of both vehicles, and are focusing on the Chevy Silverado 1500 as the closest comparison for the F-150.

2015 Ford F-150 by Tuner Tom - CC-BY-SA-3.0 Introduced in the 12th generation F-150, the 5.0 Engine has been a solid engine option for owners. Dubbed the “Coyote,” the 5.0 engine is praised for its power, reliability, and overall ease of ownership. Although this engine has comparatively few problems, there are still a few things that you should be on the lookout for if you’re looking to put an F-150 equipped with this engine in your driveway.

The camera was strategically placed in the corner of the rearview mirror to allow the driver to use the camera in conjunction with the mirror more easily. Did Ford include a backup camera into their vehicles a little late, or was it a quality-of-life decision that should have been implemented sooner?
