Performance and Capability

Ford F-150® trucks deliver a wide range of powertrain options, like a 3.5-liter PowerBoost® Hybrid V6 engine with 430 horsepower and 570 pound-feet of torque, while the Chevrolet Silverado 1500 has no hybrid engine options. In addition, the Ford F-150® is available with a smooth 3.5-liter EcoBoost® High-Output V6 engine or 5.2-liter Supercharged V8 in Raptor® models, while the Chevrolet Silverado 1500 only offers up to 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque in ZR2 trim.

When adequately equipped, the Ford F-150® shows its strength with a maximum towing capacity of up to 13,500 pounds, while the Chevrolet Silverado 1500 only offers up to 13,300 pounds of towing capacity. And for hauling heavy materials or gear on the job, the Ford F-150® offers a maximum payload capacity of up to 2,455 pounds, leaving the Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and its maximum payload capacity of up to 2,280 pounds.

Safety and Technology

Connectivity is important, and while the Chevrolet Silverado 1500 offers a 13.4-inch infotainment screen that is standard on LT and higher trims, the Ford F-150® features a standard 12.0-inch SYNC® 4 infotainment screen across the lineup. And while the 12.3-inch digital cluster on Silverado 1500 trucks might be slightly larger than the standard 12.0-inch Digital Productivity Screen in Ford F-150® models, the Silverado 1500 requires shoppers to choose the mid-grade LT trim to remain on top of vital vehicle information and safety alerts.

When it comes to safety, both truck models offer a comprehensive suite of features to keep you informed and focused. While the Chevrolet Silverado 1500 may seem like just another pickup truck, the Ford F-150® received the IIHS (Insurance Institute for Highway Safety) 2022 TOP SAFETY PICK award for the current generation when equipped with LED Projector headlights. The Chevrolet Silverado 1500 doesn't receive any recommendation from the IIHS due to its "Acceptable" side crash test rating and "Marginal" rear passenger torso protection.

Worksite Ergonomics

If you work long days on the job or need to use your laptop on the go, the Ford F-150® is the ultimate choice thanks to its available Interior Work Surface that can fold out and provide a flat workspace in the center of your truck that can fit a 15-inch laptop, document folders, and other items. Plus, the Ford F-150® features standard tailgate cleats and an available Tailgate Work Surface that includes integrated rulers, cup holders, and device holders so you can tackle your needs on the job or at the campsite.

While the Chevrolet Silverado 1500 is a spacious truck with available under-seat storage, the F-150® King Ranch®, Platinum, and Limited trims come standard with a lockable, fold-flat area for improved storage capacity in the rear row so you can keep valuables or tools out of sight. Plus, the Ford F-150® is available with Pro Power Onboard™, which provides generator-like capability with up to 7,200 watts of simultaneous output, while the Chevrolet Silverado 1500 only offers up to 400 watts of output from its bed-mounted outlet and 250 watts inside the cabin.
