You don't spend your weekends like other people; you are a doer. You spend your downtime fixing, renovating, and upgrading. You are up early and among the first at the local hardware store. You know every tool and piece of equipment by name and manufacturer. You've put some of the local handymen to shame. Self-reliance is one of your most valued qualities, and you have more tool belts than regular pant belts. If this sounds like you and you're looking for a truck that has the same spirit, you should be looking for a Ford F-150 for sale.

We are proud to deliver this top-selling, light-duty, full-size pickup to our customers at Steve Marsh Ford. It is loaded with cleverly designed features that support the projects you have planned. If you need a truck that's just as great for family life as it is for repairing the driveway or putting up that treehouse you promised the kids, this is that truck; it's powerful, versatile, and made for people like you. Here are the four traits we love most about the Ford F-150 for our hard-working drivers...

1) The Pro Power Onboard Fuels Your Tools

We can't talk about the DIY-friendly features of this truck without raving about the Pro Power Onboard system. This built-in generator offers you multiple outlets in the bed and is available in three levels, starting with 2.0 kW and going all the way up to 7.2 kW in the hybrid model; a 2.4 kW system sits in the middle. With this fantastic generator at your disposal, you can do things like power-up hammer drills and sanders to get more jobs done out in the field and away from wall outlets.

You can also plug in recreational appliances, like blenders and microwaves, for camping trips with the family. The most powerful generator lets you plug in some equipment like a reciprocating saw or a welder; you can even plug in an electric heater or portable speakers to bring the comfort of the inside outdoors on your adventures or when a project runs late.

2) Impressive Towing and Payload Figures

Now, let's talk about capacities. The Ford F-150 can tow up to 13,500 lbs. That is some serious power, so if you need to tow your heavy-duty equipment to a job, you can easily do so with this powerful pickup. Plus, it boasts payload figures of up to 2,445 lbs, giving you plenty of freedom to pack materials, tools, and more into the bed.

When you plan on taking advantage of the impressive trailing capabilities, there are intuitive technology features ready to help you do so efficiently and safely. The Ford F-150 has several driver assistance features that help you line your truck up with your trailer for easier hitching and help you reverse safely with a trailer attached. With these features, you will receive helpful camera footage and guidelines on the touchscreen to show you what is happening behind your truck when you are hitching or trailering.

If you are a DIYer, you don't always have a full team around you; you're independent and often on your own, so you could use a little extra assistance, especially when navigating a truck with a trailer. These features can help with that.

3) Convenient Interior Storage and Work Solutions

The inside of this pickup has also been smartly designed to help you maximize the utility of every inch. For starters, it has an available interior work surface. If you need to look over those measurements for that toilet seat or those shelves one more time before you head into the hardware store to pick out your supplies, you can spread out your papers on this work surface. It also makes the perfect place to eat a quick lunch while you're on a job all day.

If you've maxed out the truck bed but still have a few more things you need to bring along, you can take advantage of the under-seat storage. It's not only a great place to put things that don't fit in the bed, but it's also an ideal place to conceal valuable items. So, if you'll be working at a remote location and unable to keep eyes on your truck at all times, you'll feel safe knowing your most expensive tools are tucked away in this hidden storage compartment.

Make even more interior storage space when the bed is full with the flip and rear seats. As their name implies, they flip and fold away to create extra space in the back of the cab. This might be the perfect place to keep a large cooler full of snacks that you want to have accessible within the cab. It's also an ideal place to put your four-legged companions if they're joining you on a project or camping trip!

4) The Innovative Pro Access Tailgate

The Pro Access tailgate is unlike any other tailgate in this vehicle class. It is designed to put you nineteen inches closer to the interior of the truck bed so you can access its contents more easily in several conditions. The driver-side of the tailgate has a smaller gate integrated into it that can open up to 100 degrees; this makes it easy to get to items in your bed when you have a trailer hitched. If you prefer, it also folds down like a standard tailgate.

Depending on the day's job ahead, you might need to access your truck bed under different conditions. Whatever those conditions are, you'll easily get in there thanks to the Pro Access tailgate. Plus, the F-150's bed is made with super durable but lightweight materials, so feel free to be tough on it! It can handle tons of torment, whether you're loading up bags of cement or two hefty dirt bikes.
