American-built trucks have a lineage and legacy that is unequalled in the Canadian heavy-duty market, thanks in large part to legendary models like the Ford F-150 and RAM 1500. The impact that these two industry flagbearers have made on the pickup class as a whole cannot be understated, and because of that, anyone with even a rudimentary knowledge of pickups know exactly what they’re getting when they step behind the wheel of models of this magnitude. If you’re looking for a high-strength truck to accompany you on the job, but aren’t sure where to begin your search, we’re here to help.

You’re more than welcome to join our Sherwood Ford sales team below as we take you on an in-depth look at what the F-150 and RAM 1500 can do for 2019. With this in mind, it’ll be that much easier to see which of these icons best suits your needs!

At first glance, it should be clear that the 2019 Ford F-150 can do much more than its RAM counterpart, with a lighter engine and body thanks to high-grade aluminum-alloy construction throughout its bed and cab. It’s able to handle more towing and payload needs than the RAM 1500 thanks to a wide array of smart features built in, notably Pro Trailer Backup Assist, Dynamic Hitch Assist, a Blind Spot Information System with Trailer Coverage, and much more. In addition, with a 10-speed automatic transmission (whose capability far exceeds that of the RAM 1500 and its 8-speed transmission) and off-road ready construction, the 2019 Ford F-150 is the total package no matter how you look at it.
