Towing Features

Providing raw strength is only half the battle. After that, you need some of the latest towing systems to land on the automotive market to guide you on the path ahead in a seamless manner. The 2019 F-150 steps up to the plate and is prepared to knock it out of the park with standard features like Trailer Sway Control². This intuitive technology uses AdvanceTrac® with RSC® to make sure you stay on course without losing control of your boat or camper. You will also have the opportunity to upgrade to the Trailer Brake Controller, which makes sure that the brakes of your F-150 and trailer are working in tandem by using the control located in your pickup’s instrument panel. Then, you can look toward the available 8-inch productivity screen that displays pertinent details about your towing experience right in front of you for easy viewing.

Pro Trailer Backup Assist^TM

Last, but certainly not least, the Ford F-150 boasts one last standard feature that will make your time spent behind the wheel an absolute breeze. Otherwise known as Pro Trailer Backup Assist^TM3, this advanced driver-assist feature will make sure that you can gently guide your trailer or boat onto course without having to reverse and pull forward multiple times. This is accomplished by utilizing the handy Trailer Backup knob located on your center console that allows you to determine the position of your equipment. If you notice your trailer beginning to stray away from its intended path, you can easily guide it back onto course by steering it left or right through the easy-to-use knob. The F-150 is the first model to ever offer this type of feature!
