Compare the 2023 Ford F-150 to the Chevy Silverado 1500 in Hanford, CA

If you want a full-size truck that's powerful and capable, while also offering tons of enjoyable creature comforts, choose the 2023 Ford F-150. This light-duty pickup is perfect for work, play, or your commute in Hanford, CA. The 2023 Chevy Silverado 1500 is a full-size truck that also brings a lot to the table, but it's not as well-rounded as the F-150. Heller Ford Lincoln built the following comparison to show you why.

Towing

Towing

If you like to pull boats or campers to Pine Flat Lake near Fresno, the 2023 Ford F-150 is your best choice. When properly equipped, the F-150 can tow up to 14,000 pounds. It also comes standard with trailer sway control and pre-wired trailer connections that simplify hook-ups.

The 2023 Chevy Silverado 1500 has a towing capacity of just 13,300 pounds. A trailering package is available for the Silverado 1500, but you have to move up to the Custom trim to get it.

Hauling

If you want to help someone move, or to haul a woodchipper in the back of your truck, you need one that can carry bulky loads. The 2023 Ford F-150 has a payload rating of 3,325 pounds with the right configuration. An optional power-locking tailgate helps Tulare drivers secure their cargo.

The 2023 Chevy Silverado has a payload capacity of just 2,260 pounds, and you must have a Regular Cab body style to carry that much weight.

Engine Power & Payload

Fuel Economy

Full-size trucks aren't usually very fuel-efficient, but the 2023 Ford F-150 offers a hybrid powertrain that uses less gas than most. Hanford drivers will like that it gets 25 mpg in the city and on the highway.

The 2023 Chevy Silverado 1500 offers a turbodiesel engine that returns a thrifty 24 mpg in the city and 29 mpg on the highway. However, since diesel fuel is normally more expensive than gas, you don't enjoy much savings from it.

Ride and Handling

The 2023 Ford F-150 has light steering and strong brakes that keep it poised on winding roads in Fresno.

The 2023 Chevy Silverado 1500 doesn't have much steering feel or athleticism, and its ride feels a bit harsh over bumps in the road.

Off-Roading

If you want to explore rocky canyons or wooded trails near Lemoore, you need a rugged truck with a solid suspension. The 2023 Ford F-150 is available with several off-roading packages, along with an off-road oriented trim - the F-150 Raptor. F-150 Raptor R variants come with a potent, 700-horsepower engine.

The 2023 Chevy Silverado 1500's most proficient off-roader is the ZR2 trim. Its brawniest engine produces just 420 horsepower.

Available LED Lighting

Both trucks come with optional LED headlights, taillights, and cargo bed lighting. However, the F-150 comes with optional LED Mirror-Mounted Spotlights for even more visibility, as well as LED projector lights with dynamic bending headlamps - you can't find the same setup in the Chevy truck.

Interior Space

Cabin Quality

You'll enjoy spending time inside the 2023 Ford F-150, which has a solid, well put-together cabin. Tulare drivers will appreciate the refinement of the F-150 King Ranch, which comes with soft leather upholstery and genuine wood trim.

The 2023 Chevrolet Silverado 1500's lower trims have too many hard plastics and a dull overall design. Higher trims are swankier, but they can't match the opulence of the F-150 King Ranch.

 

Interior Luxury & Tech

Infotainment System

The 2023 Ford F-150 comes standard with SYNC 4 infotainment system, an 8-inch touchscreen, and wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. A 12-inch touchscreen system is available.

 

The 2023 Chevy Silverado 1500 comes with a 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system that has wired Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Its optional system is better, but you have to buy a higher trim level to get it.
