The 2021 Ford F-150 is top-rated by Edmunds

The Ford F-150 isn’t just highly scored on the Edmunds rankings, it also received the badge for being top-rated among large pickup trucks. The redesigned 2021 Ford F-150 pickup truck takes into account all of the owner complaints of previous model years and works to provide buyers with an even better version of the already best-selling pickup truck.

The vehicle is highlighted for so many reasons, with an overall scoring of 8.5, giving it an average that depicts great rankings across the board for all of the many categories Edmunds takes into account with their extensive road testing and reviews.

A range of trim levels, versatility, and options

What makes the 2021 Ford F-150 such a great pickup truck are the same things that have made it so great in the past. It starts at an affordable price but works its way up to higher sticker prices with additional options and features that might appeal to some buyers, but not all. Its history of reliability and safety options only works in its favor, too.

Among the variations in cab sizes, drivetrains, and trim levels, the 2021 Ford F-150 overall offers drivers a great handling and driving experience, passengers with plenty of space and comfort with minimal road noise compared to other similarly-priced vehicles, and enough modern technology and driving aids to make this model year worth picking over an older, used model.
