Ford is raising the price of its new aluminum-sided pickup truck but is trying to stay competitive with rivals.
Ford released pricing on the F-150 yesterday. It goes on sale later this year.
The new truck comes in five variants, down from 10 available with the current model. All five have aluminum sides, which is more expensive than steel but weighs less and saves fuel.
Ford’s base XL and XLT models — which make up 70 percent of sales — will cost $395 more. A fancier King Ranch will cost $3,615 more; its new standard features include a heated steering wheel.
