Why the 2024 Ford F-150 LARIAT Is Perfect for Canon City Drivers

Choosing the right truck is never an easy task. Today’s trucks combine the ruggedness and capability that have always been offered by pickups with the technology and safety features that drivers have come to expect from their modern vehicles. As a result, you will want to find a model that provides the right balance so you get the comfort and convenience features you desire in the truck you need. The industry leader over the past 46 years has been the Ford F-Series, which has not only been the best-selling truck during the years but has spent the last 41 years as the best-selling passenger vehicle as well.

With Ford offering so many great models, the best way to find a new 2024 Ford F-150 in Colorado is to look for a Canon City car dealership (or one near there) with a great selection and knowledgeable team dedicated to helping you find the perfect model. At The Faricy Boys Ford, we are proud to offer the full lineup of 2024 Ford models, including the F-150 LARIAT. This is the perfect choice for drivers looking for a balance between a rugged, full-size pickup truck and a family vehicle. The F-150 LARIAT is built to do double duty for Canon City drivers like you who want a truck that can serve both purposes.

What’s New for 2024?

When you look at the 2024 Ford F-150’s exterior, you will see one of the things that stands out the most on this truck. That’s right, the 2024 model features new styling, which is most prominent in the LARIAT model. The front grille continues Ford’s move to make a more aggressive and expressive fascia on its trucks. This is in keeping with what you see with many newer trucks. Offsetting the front grille are a pair of LED headlights with foggers in the lower front bumper.

The LARIAT rides on a pair of 18-inch chrome-like PVD wheels. For those who don’t know, PVD stands for physical vapor deposition, a type of coating that has recently begun being used for wheels. This helps eliminate the issue of pitting and peeling that can often affect chrome finishes, especially on truck wheels that are subject to a great deal of wear and tear. Not only will they help your F-150 LARIAT’s chrome wheels last longer. They also look great.

Powerful Performance

Ford has equipped the 2024 F-150 LARIAT with a standard 2.7-liter V6 gas engine paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission. This engine delivers an impressive 325 hp and 400 lb-ft of torque. That is enough strength to let the truck carry up to 2,480 lbs of cargo in its rugged payload bed. You also have the ability to tow up to 10,100 lbs.

You can also choose another engine on the F-150 LARIAT. This is a 3.5-liter PowerBoost Turbo V6 HEV engine. This mild hybrid reduces fuel consumption on your truck without compromising performance. In fact, despite its smaller size, the hybrid engine has greater output than the standard Coyote V8, a very impressive 430 hp and 570 lb-ft of torque. This gives the LARIAT the strength to tow up to 12,700 lbs.

Packed With Tons of Great Tech to Make Your Drive Easier

When folks in this part of Colorado hear the name Lariat, they probably think of things like cowboys and rodeos. While the 2024 Ford F-150 LARIAT does have many design features to give you a rugged old, wild west feel, the fact is that this is a truck with its wheels planted firmly in the future.

Ford offers the trim its available BlueCruise technology. This provides you with the ability to drive hands-free on specially mapped highways across America. The BlueCruise system combines the cameras and sensors from the Co-Pilot 360 technology with mapping from the built-in navigation system. All you have to do is stay focused on the road, and the BlueCruise system will do the rest. This comes in handy on long drives where you may experience fatigue. Ford has given each 2024 F-150 LARIAT a 90-day free trial of the service so you can experience it for yourself and decide if you want to extend the subscription.

The truck features the SYNC 4 system, the latest version of Ford’s state-of-the-art infotainment system. This provides enhanced voice recognition; you can ask the SYNC 4 to make a call, read and reply to a text, or just play your favorite song, all without taking your hands off the steering wheel. Folks in Canon City are sure to appreciate this and the ease with which you can pair your phone to the SYNC 4 using Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and Bluetooth connectivity.

The 12-inch touchscreen dominates the center dashboard of the LARIAT, while the adjacent 12-inch digital productivity screen on the driver’s side of the dashboard will give you all the information you need in real time about your truck. The screen on the SYNC 4 is capacitive, allowing you and your front-row passenger to easily swipe through and select the features and functions you’d like to access.

We know that there are many audiophiles here in Canon City. If you are one of them, then you will love the B&O sound system by Bang & Olufsen that is available on the LARIAT trim. This system features 8 speakers strategically placed around the cabin, along with a subwoofer to give you unparalleled audio enjoyment. Whether you like to listen to music, news, comedy, or talk, there is nothing like the sound you get from a B&O stereo inside of your truck.

Ford hasn’t forgotten why you chose a truck over a car or SUV. This is why you can get your model with a Pro-Access Tailgate. This is new for 2024 and features a number of amazing multi-functions to make accessing the cargo bed on the F-150 easier than ever. The key is that the Pro-Access Tailgate allows you to open the payload bed door while your F-150 is hitched to a trailer without damaging the door or your trailer. If you plan on using your F-150 LARIAT for a great deal of towing and hauling, then this is an option you should strongly consider.

Comfort and Convenience

When you think of a pickup truck, comfort and convenience are probably not the first words to come to mind. The 2024 Ford F-150 LARIAT turns that concept on its head. Each truck has a roomy SuperCrew Cab that can seat up to five passengers, making it perfect for work and play. The front seats are captain’s chairs that have sumptuous leather-trimmed upholstery. The rear has a bench seat that is also leather-wrapped. These are as comfortable and luxurious as they look. Sure, you might not think of leather seats on a truck, but the trim is certain to change your mind about such things. It also comes with Ford’s Intelligent Access system. This allows you to lock and unlock your vehicle without having to touch the key fob.
