2022 Ford F-150 vs Nissan Frontier

A good truck is worth appreciating. It can conqueror tough terrain, carry heavy cargo, and last for a long time. The Ford F-150 and Nissan Frontier are two reliable trucks, but which one is right for you? To help drivers in Port Arthur and Nederland, Texas, and Lake Charles, Louisiana, decide, Town & Country Ford looked at what they have to offer in this 2022 Ford F-150 vs. Nissan Frontier comparison.

Powerful Pickups

---

The 2022 Ford F-150 offers a full range of options under the hood. It gives you six exciting engines to choose from, including a 3.5L PowerBoost™ Full Hybrid V6 powertrain. This option gives you great gas mileage as well as up to 430 horsepower and 570 lb-ft of torque.

Some other standout engines are the 5.0L Ti-VCT V8 that offers up to 400 horsepower and 410 lb-ft of torque, and the 3.5L EcoBoost® V6 that features 400 horsepower and 500 lb-ft of torque.

If you’re not a fan of having lots of options to choose from, the Nissan Frontier may be a better fit for you. It’s only available with a 3.8L V6 engine. Unfortunately, it can’t produce nearly the same sort of performance. It tops out at just 310 horsepower and 281 lb-ft of torque.

Towing & Payload Capabilities

The 2022 Ford F-150 puts that power to good use by helping you get through anything that stands in your way and helping you carry everything you need. Not only will you be able to haul everything, from a few ATVs and a camper to livestock, but you’ll have the confidence of knowing that the 2022 F-150 offers best-in-class towing and payload.

With the 5.0L Ti-VCT V8 under the hood, the F-150 can handle a payload of up to 3,325 pounds. If you’re more focused on what you’ll be hitching to your trailer, consider the 3.5L EcoBoost® V6. It can help the F-150 tow up to 14,000 pounds.

On the other hand, you won’t get best-in-class cargo capabilities from the Nissan Frontier. It can only manage a payload of 1,610 pounds and tow up to 6,720 pounds.

Technology & Convenience

---

With a center console so wide it can serve as a workstation on the go, the Ford F-150 is all about making things more convenient for you. That’s why it also offers a pair of 12-inch displays. The Digital Productivity Screen takes the instrument cluster to new heights, while the dashboard touchscreen is equipped with SYNC® 4.

This user-friendly infotainment system can help you find the fastest route, provide you with turn-by-turn directions, sync your smartphone, and stay in touch wherever you go.

The Nissan Frontier also offers smartphone compatibility, but it doesn’t give off the convenience of a mobile command center. For one, the center console is average-sized, while the instrument cluster display and dashboard monitor don’t measure up to that of the F-150.
