	Like it's cousin the [[Ford Bronco]], older versions came standard with the robust [[Ford 9"]] axle. Their straight-axle setup and powerful engines made them ideal for plowing through mud. As such they have become very popular in mud bogging. After-market rear axle differential lockers are usually installed as well, and more demanding owners often swap out their 302/351 engines for a larger one with more torque like the [[Ford 429]] or [[Ford 460]]. Common axle swaps for heavy off-road include the [[Dana 70]] and the [[Ford 10.25"]].		Like it's cousin the [[Ford Bronco]], older versions came standard with the robust [[Ford 9"]] axle.

	According to [http://www.kbb.com Kelley Blue Book,] "The F-150 is expected to retain a better-than-average residual value, with the SuperCab models at the top of the chart, followed by the SuperCrew and then the Regular Cab. Over a five-year period, the F-150's projected residual value is expected to rate higher than the [[Chevrolet Silverado\|Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Classic]] and [[Dodge Ram]], and be on par with the [[Nissan Titan]] but below the [[Toyota Tundra]]."
