Trail Control Makes 2019 Ford F-150 Raptor Even More Off-Road Capable
There’s an awful lot to love about the 2019 Ford F-150 Raptor. I mean, after all, it’s a Ford F-150 Raptor. You know what it does, and you know that it’s gonna do it well. If you didn’t pull the trigger on the F-150 Raptor before and are considering getting one of the new 2019 models, then you’re in luck, because it features a super handy new technology that makes it somehow even more capable for off-roading.
And The Current Ain’t Half Bad, Either: 2018 Ford F-150 remains the industry’s most advanced and capable pickup
Introducing: Trail Control.
If you watched the video above — and why wouldn’t you? It’s got crunchy guitars and lots of running footage of the F-150 Raptor — then you saw that claim that Trail Control is like cruise control for off-roading. And it is!
To engage the system, you need only press the Trail Control button located just above the F-150 Raptor’s infotainment display and between the hazard lights and traction control buttons. Then, by using the speed select buttons mounted on your steering wheel, you can set a speed of up to 20 mph. Take your foot off the pedal, pal, because you’ve just engaged Trail Control! It’s like cruise control … but for off-roading. Did I mention that already?
