Every corner of the online world is thoroughly inspected, all in hopes of securing precious details about the 2018 F-150 Super Duty.
Those details, sadly, have proven scarce during the last few months - with Ford unwilling to share specs about its latest F-Series innovation. An OPP Trends article, however, finally provides drivers with the facts they crave.
The 2018 F-150 Super Duty was recently spied on Ford’s Michigan proving grounds. There OPP Trends discovered some subtle - but intriguing - points of interest. The truck will feature a new heavy-duty rear axle (to ensure powerhouse towing) and rugged 8-lug wheels. The stance has been widened, and the grille has been tweaked to deliver improved aerodynamics. These changes should allow the F-Series pick-up to generate greater speeds, higher economy, and more efficient payload responses.

November is fast approaching - and it’s bringing SEMA with it. From the 1st to the 4th, automotive devotees will descend upon Las Vegas (the mecca of chrome). There they’ll discover high-throttle powerhouses, with engineers introducing their latest V8 platforms and sport-tuned systems.
Some of those systems will bear the F-150 name.
According to AutoBlog, the F-Series is coming to SEMA. Ford will soon debut four new F-150 variants - each promising custom performance and staggering power:
The Bojix Design F-150 SuperCrew.
The A.R.E. Accessories F-150 SuperCrew.
The BMX F-15 Lariat SuperCrew.
The EraThr3 F-150 SuperCrew.
Â
These platforms have been carefully designed, with Ford emphasizing best-in-class responses with every mile. This has yielded supercharged innovations, blending Whipple add-ons with V8 engines to achieve more than 750 HP (the signature Mustang, by comparison, delivers only 670 HP).
SEMA stands as the world’s premier automotive event, connecting critics and consumers to the latest engine advancements. Ford’s F-150 fleet will, therefore, prove an ideal addition to the November show (and so will its other 46 vehicles, which will include variants of the Focus, Fusion, and Mustang).
Are you going to Las Vegas? The Novlan team will join you!

The tasks are endless - with every day revealing a new load to bear, a new project to complete. You spend your hours on the road, with a trailer forever following. Recently, though, that trailer proves shaky. Its weight is too heavy; its bulk is too great; and your light-duty pick-up can’t sustain the necessary power to accommodate it.
Ford suggests seeking a new platform - one crafted from high-strength aluminum. Check out the 2016 F-150 and its redesigned frame!
With the release of the 2016 F-150, Ford provides drivers with the power they need. This heavy-duty pick-up boasts peerless construction, blending military-grade aluminum with a fully-boxed steel frame. This (when paired with the signature eight crossmember design) allows the truck to deliver precise rigidity, adapting to every load with ease.
It also ensures efficiency, with Ford reducing the F-150’s frame weight by more than 60 pounds. This lessens the engine strain, creating more effective direct-injection responses. The truck can now deliver up to 24 miles-per-gallon on the highway (a 12% increase from the 2014 platform). Power and EcoBoost economy combine.
The 2016 F-150 proves the perfect complement to your routine. Allow the Novlan team to schedule a test-drive in this F-Series performer today.
Innovation drives the Ford brand. With every year comes a new advancement in performance - with engines redefined, payloads enhanced, and economy strengthened.
This year proves to be no exception. In a recent interview with Tech Republic, Ford revealed its last innovation: a seven-camera system for the 2017 F-Series. This collection of high-resolution monitors promises exceptional safety on the highway, enabling drivers to better control their trailering needs.
The 2017 F-Series (which features the F-150, F-250, and F-350) now boasts a dynamic camera system. Through seven strategically placed lenses - with three centered at the rear and four placed along the sides - it continually assesses the road, sending real-time data to the central media console. This information enables drivers to immediately respond to all conditions, ensuring seamless navigation and proper lane correction.
Through this, Ford is improving highway safety. The 2017 F-Series delivers comprehensive visual monitoring, allowing drivers to make more efficient decisions. It reduces the chance of collisions and delivers early pedestrian detection. Prevention is its cornerstone.
The Novlan team is certainly impressed. With the release of the 2017 F-Series, we anticipate safer miles for our customers.

It’s been a series of speculations. With the first announcement of the 2017 F-150 Raptor came an endless stream of numbers - with horsepower, torque, and transmission ratios debated by critics and drivers alike. All North American pick-up devotees had opinions to share, and every day revealed a new performance estimation.
Those estimations can finally become accuracies.
According to Torque News, Ford has finally revealed the precise capabilities of its 2017 F-150 Raptor - and the truth proves far better than any fiction.Â
Engine: 3.5L EcoBoost V6 Horsepower: 450 HP at 5,000 RPM Torque: 510 lb.-ft at 3,500 RPM Transmission: Class-Exclusive 10-Speed Automatic Drivetrain: Four-Wheel-Drive (with Torque-on-Demand technology)
These numbers promise exceptional performance, with the 2017 F-150 Raptor delivering best-in-class off-roading. When compared to its predecessor - the 2014 model - it offers an additional 39 HP and 76 lb.-ft of torque, allowing it to easily conquer sand, gravel, and deep-rutted trails.

The rumors prove persistent - weaving through the automotive world, softly promising exceptional economy. The F-Series, they claim, will soon pair with diesel efficiency; and this will redefine every mile and every payload.
According to Road and Track, these rumors are turning into truths. The noted auto-blog recently reported that the 2018 Ford F-150 will feature a diesel V6 engine. This declaration has North American drivers hurrying to dealerships, wanting to stake their claims on 3.0L TD6 performance (the F-Series will share the same platform as the Range Rover Sport, offering a spirited 245 HP and 440 lb.-ft of torque).
With the promise of a V6 diesel engine, Ford is pushing its 2018 F-150 to the forefront of the pick-up market. Only one other competitor - the Ram 1500 - offers this alternative platform option, creating a need for improved economy. The F-Series will now fulfill that need, fusing its best-in-class trailering with an estimated 28 miles-per-gallon. This will ensure precise power on both the highway and the back-roads.
The 2018 F-150 will provide drivers with the V6 reliability they crave - and we can’t wait to sample that reliability next year. To learn more about this and other F-Series models contact us today.
It’s a tradition of excellence - with the Ford F-150 Raptor dominating every backroad, stirring silt and sand as it roars across North America. Since its 2008 arrival, this all-terrain beast has proven itself a worthy successor to the F-Series. Its rare fusion of V6 performance and EcoBoost economy has allowed it rev past all competitors, providing drivers with unforgettable adventures.
These adventures will continue in 2016.
According to CarScoops, the 2017 F-150 Raptor will offer dynamic responses - generating 450 HP and 510 lb.-ft of torque when purring at 3,500 RPM. These numbers showcase the capabilities of Ford’s signature EcoBoost engine (a spirited 3.5L V6), promising exceptional off-road experiences. This F-Series variant will effortlessly power through sand, mud, and muck.
It will also offer power. CarScoops notes that the 2017 Raptor will deliver up to 8,000 pounds of trailering. This will allow drivers to take all of their beloved ATV and UTV toys along for the ride, with best-in-class payloads promoting ease with every mile.
No official release date has been given for the F-150 Raptor. The Novlan team anticipates a speedy production schedule, however, as the year comes to a close. This pick-up speedster will soon rev onto dealer lots across North America - and deliver unprecedented capabilities to drivers.

It’s a series of stops and starts - with your truck locked in a trailering struggle, trying to maneuver its massive frame to that tiny faraway hitch. You sigh, frustrated by both a lack of progress and the inevitable crash. You know this will end with a scratched tailgate.
Ford wants it to instead end with success. That’s why it recently fused its 2017 Super Duty with an autonomous trailer back-up system - allowing drivers to effortlessly (and precisely) navigate every scenario.
According to Motor Trend, the 2017 Ford Super Duty delivers impressive performance. Within its aluminum frame are seven carefully positioned digital cameras - which constantly assess the road for unexpected obstacles and potential collisions. These cameras then relay information to the truck’s central media system, allowing drivers to examine every angle. When paired with a variety of technological advances (including dynamic back-up guidance lines and jackknife warnings), this real-time function promises easy trailering.
By examining the road, the F-Series can more effectively create custom routes - using its adaptive cruise control to seamlessly connect to a hitch. This spares drivers the frustration of gauging distances... and it also spares them the horror of dings, dents, and sudden damage.
We’re certainly thrilled - aren’t you?

The numbers are inconstant - a series of highs, lows, and middling in-betweens. Fuel costs leave drivers frustrated, constantly trying (and failing) to gauge potential expenses. The dollar never remains stable... and it never seems to stretch quite enough.
Ford understands those maddening fuel demands. That’s why it recently fused its signature F-Series with a supersized gas tank!

According to Motoring Crunch, the 2017 F-Series will feature a 48-gallon gas tank. This proves quite the upgrade, with previous F-150, F-250, and F-250 models only offering 37.5-gallon capacities. The increase will now allow drivers to experience enhanced mileage on the road, demanding fewer pauses at the pump (and fewer dollars spent).
This will provide North Americans with the budget-friendly efficiency they crave - but don’t fret about a loss of power. Motoring Crunch notes that the 2017 F-Series will still deliver best-in-class performance, boasting a rugged 6.2L V8 engine and HP ratios of 385. Exceptional results await on every road.
What do you think about the 2017 F-Series’ tank change? Will it provide the economy you need? Share your thoughts with the Novlan team today!
Tradition drives the Super Duty - with every F-150, F-250, and F-350 drawing inspiration from the platforms that came before them. Familiar profiles line every dealership, and Ford’s 2017 models will be no exception. Each promises classic heavy-duty styling, with strength emphasized through wide fenders and elongated cabs.
Drivers craving a dynamic design experience, however, will soon discover much to celebrate - because Ford is pairing its 2017 Super Duty with a bold new look.
According to Torque News, the 2017 Super duty line-up will offer drivers a fresh style - the STX package. This option boasts a variety of fascia enhancements, all intended to showcase the truck’s powerful frame. These enhancements will include:
A Billet Black Grille.
20-Inch Aluminum Tires.

Integrated Fog Lights.

... and more!
