2009 F-150 REVAMPED WITH NEW LIGHTWEIGHT CHASSIS
The 2009 Ford F-150 is a completely revamped model featuring segmentfirst features, a tough new exterior with a dramatic three-bar grille, and more spacious, flexible and refined interior, as well as a choice of cab styles and trim levels. A new high-strength, lighter-weight chassis is the backbone that allows this tough truck to deliver more horsepower, better fuel economy and safety, as well as additional towing and payload capacity. A key improvement to the 2009 F-150s is their fully boxed lightweight frame constructed with hydro-formed and high strength steel side rails. The lightweight frame delivers 10 percent more torsional rigidity, which delivers increased durability and safety. The sturdy chassis on these trucks also provides very high towing and hauling capability across all cab configu-rations. Under the hood, the 2009 F-150 is powered by a choice of three modern V-8 engines, mated to either a 4-speed or a new fuel-efficient 6-speed automatic transmission.
