The 2018 model year
Overview
Ford refreshed the F-150 for 2018 with a new 3.3-liter base V6, revised 2.7-liter EcoBoost and 5.0-liter V8 ratings, wider use of the 10-speed automatic, and the first F-150 Power Stroke diesel. Regular Cab, SuperCab, and SuperCrew bodies continued, with Raptor remaining a separate high-output application.

Year over year
What changed
- The 3.3-liter V6 replaced the prior naturally aspirated 3.5-liter base engine, and 10-speed availability expanded.
- A 3.0-liter Power Stroke turbo-diesel V6 joined during the model year as the F-150's first factory diesel.
Worth knowing
Notable
- Ford documented XL, XLT, Lariat, King Ranch, Platinum, Limited, and Raptor series.
Living with it
Reliability & ownership notes
- Diesel, gasoline EcoBoost, naturally aspirated V6, V8, and Raptor applications need separate fluids, filters, and service procedures.
- Ford's 13,200-pound tow and 3,270-pound payload figures are properly-equipped maxima, not ratings for every truck.
