2011 Ford F-150 XLT SuperCrew 4�4 5.0 V8 � Short Take Road Test



2011 Ford F-150 XLT SuperCrew 4x4 5.0 V8
The Mustang�s 5.0 V-8 finds its way into the F-150, losing some horsepower in the transition.
What Is It?
It�s the country-music version of �rollin� in my five-point-oh.� Included in the F-150�s new engine portfolio for 2011 is this 5.0-liter V-8 borrowed from Vanilla Ice�s new Mustang GT. Here, the motor makes 360 hp and 380 lb-ft of torque, some 52 hp and 10 lb-ft less than in the Mustang�presumably, it is detuned to make room for more expensive options like the 6.2-liter V-8 and 3.5-liter EcoBoost V-6. But floor the accelerator, and the speed and sound of this F-150 will have you feeling like you�re wheeling a 2+2.
