Sadly, this might just be because they know their market and they know that most people who buy the F-150 aren't using it to tow stuff, but are the type who are more likely to buy it because it has shiny steps.
- HeyLaughingBoy 18y agoYou're partly right: I think it's because all the vehicles in its class have roughly the same capability, but the steps can differentiate the F150 from the competition. Around here any truck sold from dealer inventory automatically comes with a tow package and will at least occasionally be used to tow something. Even my Xterra is sometimes used to tow a trailer. People are still buying big trucks: I just bought my wife a used F250 with 7.3L diesel and it's her daily ride!
