Whether you are towing or driving, the 2022 Ford F-150 and 2022 Chevy Silverado also have technology systems to help you more easily and safely get around. With both trucks, there are features that can help you stay centered in your lane and even apply the brakes if your truck detects a potential for a collision with the car in front of you. The 2022 Ford F-150 even offers available:
These systems let your truck help you back up your trailer into a parking spot or driveway, take control of the steering and acceleration to safely park itself, and even automatically steer away from other cars that suddenly stop in front of you. The 2022 Silverado 1500 unfortunately doesn’t offer any of these technologies.
Each of these models has a few cabin configurations with their largest offering seating for six. With the space too their cabins have, they make for great vehicles for family travels or if you’ll be heading to various activities with friends.
