We certainly come across our fair share of Ford F-150 pickups for sale on a regular basis – including at collector car auction sites – which isn’t terribly surprising, given the fact that it’s been one of the best-selling vehicles on earth for many years now. Those Ford F-150 listings run the gamut from low-mile, bone-stock examples to heavily-modified rides, along with some that were even featured in big-time auto shows. However, this 2017 Ford F-150 stands out from that large pack for one very good reason.
Up for auction at Bring a Trailer, this 2017 Ford F-150 features a full-blown entertainment system in its bed, making it perfect for tailgating or promotional purposes. That setup is rather impressive, consisting of equipment such as two 55-inch LG televisions mounted to hydraulic lifts, along with JBL speakers, a fog machine, a Yamaha mixer, a Samson wireless receiver, a DVD player, and a Xantrex power inverter. All of those goodies are contained under a tonneau cover, so it’s a pretty stealth setup, too.
That’s further aided by the fact that this Ford F-150 otherwise looks to be bone stock, with perfect Shadow Black paint, coupled with 18-inch wheels wrapped in Goodyear Wrangler tires. Inside, the previous owner did upgrade to black Katzkin leather seats that are heated up front, joining amenities such as a rearview camera, remote start, voice-activated navigation, cruise control, and air conditioning.
With just 11k miles on the clock, this Ford F-150 is powered by the twin-turbocharged 2.7L V6 EcoBoost engine, factory rated at 325 horsepower and 375 pound-feet of torque. That power flows to the the rear or all four wheels through a six-speed automatic transmission and a dual-range transfer case.
This rather interesting setup is something similar to what Ford has actually explored via a couple of recent patent filings, notably – one, for a frunk-mounted screen in EVs, as well as another, which gave us an idea for a movable panel and viewing screen.
It's unclear what those export markets will consist of.
It didn't top every category, but was the best all-around.
The term could also be used on merchandise.
The exec has done this for the past couple of years.
Resulting in a huge repair bill.
