Seven best Ford features for durability and toughness
These seven features help protect the interior and exterior of your Ford vehicle:
- Fully boxed high-strength steel frame: The fully boxed high-strength steel frame is a foundational element that provides robust structural support to the entire truck.
- High-strength, military-grade aluminum body: The use of military-grade aluminum in the body construction helps to reduce the overall weight of the truck without compromising strength.
- High-strength, military-grade truck beds: Similar to the body, the high-strength, military-grade truck beds are designed to withstand heavy loads and resist dents and dings. This feature is particularly crucial for truck beds, as they often bear the brunt of rough cargo loading and unloading.
- Torture-tested performance: Torture testing involves subjecting vehicles to extreme conditions and stress tests to identify weaknesses and areas for improvement. Ford’s commitment to torture-tested performance means that their trucks undergo a series of grueling tests to simulate real-world abuse.
- Available steel bash plates: Steel bash plates add an extra layer of protection to critical components under the truck, such as the engine and transmission. These plates are designed to absorb impact from rocks, debris, or other obstacles when off-roading, preventing damage to essential parts.
- Steel wheels: Steel wheels are known for their durability and strength, making them well-suited for heavy-duty applications. They are less prone to bending or cracking compared to alloy wheels, providing an extra level of ruggedness.
- Available rubberized flooring: Rubberized flooring is resistant to wear and tear, easy to clean, and resistant against spills and stains. This feature is available on the Ford Bronco.
