Ford Argentina’s sales declined sharply in May, largely due to a COVID-19 induced shutdown, plunging 41 percent year-over-year. One bright spot in that dreary result, however, is the Ford F-150, which enjoyed a 105 percent sales increase last month. Now, Argentinians can purchase the latest and greatest 2021 Ford F-150, as the all-new 14th generation model has officially launched exclusively in Lariat Luxury 5.0L 4×4 AT trim.
As the name implies, Argentina’s 2021 Ford F-150 Lariat Luxury 5.0L 4×4 AT trim comes equipped exclusively with Ford’s 5.0L Coyote V8, paired with the automaker’s 10-speed automatic transmission, and in four-wheel-drive configuration. It also comes equipped with Ford’s FX4 Off-Road Package, which adds beefier shocks, a locking rear differential, skid plates, and Hill Decent Control.
The Lariat trim F-150 features a host of chrome trim on the exterior, including the bumpers, front grille, side mirrors, running boards, door handles, and 20-inch wheels, along with two-tone paint. On the inside, buyers will find Ford’s new 12-inch infotainment screen running SYNC 4 with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay compatibility, along with a digital instrument cluster.
Other niceties include an 8-speaker B&O sound system, 10-way adjustable heated and ventilated front power seats, the new Interior Work Surface, heated rear seats, a heated and leather-wrapped steering wheel, dual-zone climate control, power-adjustable pedals, and ambient lighting. The 2021 F-150 Lariat Luxury also comes equipped with Ford Co-Pilot360 and its suite of driver-assist technologies including Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Centering, Pre-Collision Assist, Pro Trailer Backup Assist, and Blind Spot Information System, to name a few.
The 2021 Ford F-150 Lariat Luxury 5.0L 4×4 AT is available in three exterior colors – Lead Gray, Racing Red, and Metallic White, and features a base MSRP of $69,990 USD. It joins the 2021 Ford Mustang Mach 1 in Argentina’s revamped lineup, which just launched in the country late last month.

I guess Ford has larger parking lots in Argentina for all of the trucks they will not be able to finish because they can’t find computer chips. Meanwhile, my truck continues sit in a parking lot in Kentucky waiting for computer chips. Ordered March 2, VIN April 21, built May 10, delivery date expected October 31.
It would be a great idea if Ford would focus on delivering the trucks they have already built that are simply sitting in parking lots.
