The Ford F-150 is fine-tuned for 2012 with a new FX appearance package and several driveline updates and new technologies to further improve and refine the driving experience.

The new FX appearance package is available on both FX4 and FX2 trucks and delivers a unique look with stealthy, flat-black accents. The look is set off with black fender and tailgate badges that feature red lettering, which is carried into the interior with a red-stitched steering wheel. The FX's interior also features black leather seating surfaces with red perforations and red piping.

Upgrades on the 2012 F-150's drivetrain include replacing last year's electronic shift-on-the-fly with a two-speed automatic 4x4 system for Lariat, King Ranch and Platinum trim levels. The system still offers 4 High and 4 Low modes, but now also offers a 4x4 Auto Mode. If the truck senses a loss of traction, it immediately transfers torque to the front wheels, making the system more seamless for the customer.

A new feature, Hill Start Assist, helps keep the truck from rolling backward at a stop, making it easier to pull away when on a slope or hill, especially when towing. An available electronic locking rear axle replaces most of the limited-slip offerings on the 3.5-liter EcoBoost and 5.0-liter engines. It is now available in a range of axle ratios, and is even offered on 4x2 models, delivering a new level of traction capability across most of the F-150 lineup.

The powertrain lineup delivers a mix of best-in-class horsepower, torque, capability and fuel economy. Each engine is mated to a six-speed automatic transmission. A total of four powertrains are available: 3.7L 302-hp V6; 5.0L 360-hp V8; 6.2L 411-hp V8; and 3.5L V6 EcoBoost with 365 horsepower.
