What should I look for when buying a used Ford F-150?

Across all model years, accident-free inventory is solid at 83.7% — always verify the vehicle history report.

Older model years carry meaningfully higher accident rates, so always verify the vehicle history report on pre-2020 models.

Key things to evaluate:

• Safety package: BlueCruise, which allows hands-free driving on marked highways, is optional on XLT, Lariat, Tremor, King Ranch, and Platinum.
• Infotainment: A 12-inch touchscreen with Sync 4 software and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard.
• Fuel efficiency: The hybrid’s city fuel economy is impressive at 23 mpg, but the V6 and V8 models come close on the highway (our Lobo is rated at 17 mpg city, 22 mpg highway, and 19 mpg combined).

Which Ford F-150 trim should I buy?

The 2026 Ford F-150 offers these trims:

• XL: The starting point, with the 2.7-liter turbo V6 standard on STX and XLT trims and the 5.0-liter V8 as the only engine for the base XL with the 6.5-foot bed.
• STX: A strong value choice with the 2.7-liter turbo V6 standard, plus the Lobo upgrades in the tested truck bringing a body kit, black 22-inch wheels, a two-inch rear suspension drop, and black exhaust tips.
• XLT: A well-rounded step up that keeps the 2.7-liter turbo V6 standard and can add BlueCruise, making it a smart pick if you want more tech.
• Lariat: A higher-content trim that can add BlueCruise and brings more available comfort and convenience features.
• Tremor: The off-road-focused choice, with 4WD with low range standard, the 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6 standard, and the 2.7-liter turbo V6 and 5.0-liter V8 available.

What Ford F-150 do most buyers choose?

The Ford F-150 years with the most listings are 2025, 2024, and 2023.

These higher-volume years tend to be popular because they give you more inventory to compare, which can make it easier to find the right trim, mileage, and price. They also tend to attract shoppers looking for newer features while still keeping used pricing below brand-new levels.

What is the Ford F-150's resale value?

Most model years are down year over year, and the newer trucks show the steepest drops. That creates more room for used buyers to find value, especially in recent model years where prices have moved down meaningfully. The smaller declines in some older years suggest those trucks have been a bit steadier in the market.

The 2023, 2018, and 2014 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.
