2008 Ford F-150 STX 4WD

Looking for an STX with more offroad capability? The STX 4WD answers the bell about as well as you could expect. Among the 4WD trims, the STX 4WD represents one step up from the XL LB 4WD. First off, expect a 4.6-liter, 248-hp V8 engine with a four-speed automatic transmission. You get standard air-conditioning, CD player, and ABS brakes, plus optional power windows and power door locks. Heavy lifters can expect a 78.8-inch bed, but only 6,800 lbs of maximum towing capacity, one of the lowest figures among all F-150 trims. Unfortunately, you can't upgrade to the 5.4-liter, 300-hp V8 engine as you can with many of the other trims. In sum, the STX 4WD provides a few nice features at the price of some overall power and flexibility.
