If you're weighing a 2019 Ford F-150, the short answer is yes — it earns a look for excellent towing, and comfortable SuperCrew cab for passengers. The honest trade-off: fuel economy modest for daily commuting. This example sold for $31,995, showed 148,660 km and is rated an official 11.8 L/100km combined.

This 2019 Ford F-150 4x4 comes loaded with the legendary 5.0L V8 and a Trailer Tow Package ready for work or play. Finished in a sharp Gray exterior with 148,660 km on the clock, it's equipped with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, a backup camera, and Pre-Collision Assist for confident daily driving. A true workhorse with modern tech, available now at South West Auto Group in London, Ontario.

What stood out about this one

I've sold a lot of F-150s over the years, and the 5.0L V8 4x4 combination is always one of my favourites to see come through the lot. There's something about that engine note and the confidence of true four-wheel drive that makes this truck feel every bit as tough as it looks.

What I like about this one specifically is how well-equipped it is for the price — Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, a backup camera, and Pre-Collision Assist aren't things you always find on trucks in this range, and they make a real difference in everyday driving. The Trailer Tow Package tells me this truck was set up to actually work, not just look the part.

If you're looking for a truck that can handle a trailer, a job site, or just a snowy Ontario commute without missing a beat, I'd tell you to come take a look at this one. My team and I are happy to walk you through everything it offers.
