Three options do most of the work on this 2026 Ford F-150 STX SuperCrew 4x4: the 3.55 electronic-locking rear axle, the 36-gallon extended-range fuel tank and the 275/60R20 all-terrain tires. Together, they make this truck better suited to the way a lot of Tampa Bay owners actually use an F-150. It can spend the week commuting through Wesley Chapel and New Tampa, then deal with wet grass, gravel, a boat ramp or a property entrance around Zephyrhills or Dade City without needing a dedicated off-road trim.

The 2.7L EcoBoost V6 and 10-speed automatic keep the truck responsive in everyday driving, while four-wheel drive and selectable drive modes give you more flexibility when conditions change. The electronic-locking rear axle is especially useful when traction is uneven because it can help both rear wheels pull together instead of letting one tire do all the work. For someone who heads north toward Brooksville, owns property, tows on weekends or simply wants more confidence when Florida weather turns the ground slick, that hardware matters.

Then there is the fuel tank. Thirty-six gallons means more time between stops, which is easy to appreciate when a normal week includes Land O Lakes, Tampa and plenty of highway miles. It is not a flashy feature, but it is one of the options you notice every time you realize you do not have to stop for fuel yet.

Agate Black Metallic gives the STX a darker look that works well with the 20-inch dark gray aluminum wheels, black and dark gray grille and LED fog lamps. The SuperCrew cab keeps the truck useful after work too, with Black STX cloth 40/console/40 seating, a flow-through console and real rear-seat room for family, coworkers or secure interior storage. This new F-150 also includes the Parks Ford Lifetime Powertrain Warranty from Parks Ford of Wesley Chapel.

The bed and hitch are ready for real use. A Class IV trailer hitch with Smart Trailer Tow Connector gives you a solid towing foundation, Trailer Sway Control adds support with a trailer behind you, and pickup-box tie-down hooks help keep cargo where it belongs. The power tailgate lock adds security when tools or gear stay in the bed.

A full-size truck is easier to live with when the technology takes some of the work out of driving it. BLIS with Cross-Traffic Alert, rear parking sensors and the rear-view camera are useful in crowded New Tampa lots, while Lane-Keeping System and Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking add support in daily traffic. SYNC 4 runs through a 12-inch center screen, backed by a 5G modem and Ford app capability. The Connectivity Package includes one year with the Ford app, and the Secure Package is included for one year. Auto Hold is another small feature that earns its place when traffic stacks up on State Road 54.

Parks Plus protection fits an Agate Black truck that will live outside. Paint protection helps with Florida sun and environmental exposure, rain-repellent treatment is useful during sudden storms, and headlight protection adds another layer for highway miles.

This STX is not built around luxury equipment or an oversized appearance package. Its value is in the things that change how the truck works every day: 4x4, a locking rear axle, all-terrain tires, long-range fuel capacity, SuperCrew space and a useful towing setup. That is a combination you can put to work without having to explain why you bought it. Not all customers may qualify for all rebates. Price includes: $1500 - Retail Bonus Cash.
