Power & Performance: 2025 Ford F-150
You can choose from the F-150’s six engine options to create the perfect ride. To enhance workhorse capabilities, the 5.0-liter V8 and 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 are widely available throughout the trim lineup. With the PowerBoost hybrid engine, you can combine startling power with impressive fuel economy: 23 mpg combined (22 city/24 highway). Looking for speed?
The F-150 Raptor R leaves the competition in the dust with its supercharged, 720-horsepower V8 engine!

Meanwhile, with only two engine options, the 2025 Toyota Tundra isn’t quite as accommodating. But even if you can’t transform the Tundra into a supercharged, off-road-ready truck, it’s still powerful in its own right! The available i-FORCE MAX hybrid engine is even pretty fuel-efficient, coming in just behind the F-150’s PowerBoost powertrain with 22 mpg combined (20 city/24 highway)!

Max Muscle: 2025 Ford F-150
Whether you’re looking to haul the biggest stack of construction materials or tow the roomiest camper, the 2025 Ford F-150 is your truck. Properly configured, Ford’s bestselling truck can tow (13,000 pounds max) or haul (2,455 pounds max) more than any other model in this segment! While the 2025 Toyota Tundra can tow nearly as big a trailer (12,000 pounds max), it lags behind when it comes to hauling capabilities (1,940 pounds max).
Cruising Comfort: It’s a Tie!
Inside either truck, you’ll enjoy premium passenger space and supportive seating, especially up front. And both the F-150 and Tundra are available with your choice of luxury features! For Florida, we highly recommend dual-zone automatic climate control and ventilated front seats. These items cool you down in no time, even after your truck has been baking in a sweltering parking lot for a few hours.
And while both trucks are tuned for performance, you might be surprised at just how smooth they feel on the road. Whether you choose the F-150 or the Tundra, you and your friends will travel up and down the coast in roomy comfort!
Innovative Tech Features: 2025 Ford F-150
When it comes to technology, it seems like the F-150 has thought of everything. Ford’s best-selling truck offers tech features you won’t find on competitors, like Pro Trailer Backup Assist (which helps you back a trailer in the right direction) and Onboard Scales & Smart Hitch (which estimates payloads and trailer tongue weight distribution). These features (and more!) are designed to help you get the job done with minimal effort and maximum safety!
Although the 2025 Toyota Tundra doesn’t go the extra mile with its tech features, it does match many of the F-150’s infotainment and safety features. For instance, every trim model comes standard with a central touchscreen and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity. And both trucks help you avoid danger with lane-keeping assistance and automatic emergency braking!
Florida’s Favorite Truck
In the end, Ford’s full-size truck is the best overall option! Not only does the new F-150 start at the best price, but it also delivers best-in-class capabilities, exclusive technology, and rich interior comfort.
