A full-size truck does not need four-wheel drive or a luxury package to make sense in Tampa Bay. This 2026 Ford F-150 STX SuperCrew 4x2 is built around the things many owners actually use every day: the 2.7L EcoBoost V6, a spacious four-door cab, useful towing hardware, a 36-gallon extended-range fuel tank and the sharper STX appearance.

That 36-gallon tank is one of the smartest pieces of this setup. More fuel capacity means fewer stops during a week of commuting between Wesley Chapel, New Tampa and Land O Lakes, or on longer runs north toward Zephyrhills, Dade City and Brooksville. The 2.7L EcoBoost is paired with Fords electronic 10-speed automatic transmission, giving the truck responsive power without turning it into more truck than many daily drivers need.

The STX Series gives the exterior a sportier identity with a black and dark gray grille, LED fog lamps, LED reflector headlamps and 20-inch dark gray aluminum wheels wrapped in 275/60R20 all-season tires. Iconic Silver Metallic keeps the look clean, while rear privacy glass and the fully boxed steel frame reinforce that this is still an F-150 first.

A 3.73 electronic-locking rear axle adds useful traction when the rear tires need help putting power down on wet grass, a slick boat ramp, loose gravel or an unpaved property entrance. That can matter around rural areas outside Dade City and Zephyrhills even on a 4x2 truck. Selectable drive modes also let the driver tailor the trucks response to changing conditions.

Ford gave this STX meaningful trailer equipment. The Class IV trailer hitch works with a Smart Trailer Tow Connector, and Trailer Sway Control adds confidence when a trailer is behind you. Pickup-box tie-down hooks make it easier to secure cargo, while the power tailgate lock is valuable when tools or gear are left in the truck during the day.

The SuperCrew layout is another reason this F-150 works as more than a job-site pickup. Four full doors and the Black STX cloth 40/console/40 seating give passengers real room while also providing secure interior space for bags, work equipment or anything you would rather keep out of the bed. The flow-through console creates useful storage up front, and the tilt/telescoping steering column makes it easier to get comfortable.

Technology stays modern without making the truck complicated. SYNC 4 runs through a 12-inch center screen, supported by a 5G modem and the Ford app. The Connectivity Package includes one year with the Ford app, while the Secure Package is also included for one year. BLIS with Cross-Traffic Alert, Lane-Keeping System, Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking, rear parking sensors and a rear-view camera all help in the traffic and parking situations that come with everyday driving around New Tampa and Wesley Chapel.

Parks Plus ownership benefits such as paint protection, rain-repellent treatment, headlight protection and nitrogen tire service are a natural fit for an Iconic Silver truck that will see Florida sun, sudden storms and plenty of highway miles. Because this is a new Ford from Parks Ford of Wesley Chapel, it also includes the Parks Ford Lifetime Powertrain Warranty.

This STX is not trying to be a Tremor, Platinum or King Ranch. Its strength is that it gives you the F-150 size, SuperCrew room, EcoBoost power, towing foundation and modern Ford technology in a straightforward package. For someone who needs a truck for work during the week, family duty after hours and regular driving across Tampa Bay, that simplicity can be exactly the right setup.
