A source for PickupTrucks.com is reporting that Ford is considering replacing the F-150′s conventional frame with some sort of “all-new platform featuring extensive use of an innovative magnesium-aluminum alloy” to reduce the truck’s overall weight. In addition, you could also see use of aluminum body panels (but not inside the box).

How To Lose Weight And Gain MPG in F-150
How To Lose Weight And Gain MPG in F-150This potential change leaves a lot of questions like
- Will the F-150 turn into a unibody Honda Ridgeline-like vehicle?
- How does this affect towing capacity?
- Will they also put a 4 cylinder engine in the F-150?
- Will the changes make the F-150 wimpy!!??
Well time will tell what Ford will do to the F-150. Considering how they’ve continued to only improve on the truck we don’t anticipate that Ford would do anything to compromise the F-150′s capability.
