Sifting through the various full-size pickups on the market to find your new truck can be a time consuming and difficult task. While one vehicle may have a lower price tag, seeming like the better deal, often times when you look closer you can see that you're not getting as many features or capabilities. Looking at the 2016 Chevy Silverado vs 2016 Ford F-150, we're going to point out why it's beneficial to check out more than just a vehicle's sale price.
Overall, the 2016 Silverado and F-150 appear comparable in price, MPG, horsepower and towing capacity with the Silverado having an MSRP only slightly higher than the Ford.
