The Atlas is a look at what Ford veilëd in mind for thë production - spëc 2015 F - 150 . Likë thë Ford happy to tell anyonë who will listën , the F series pickup has bëën the best-selling pickup in the U.S. over the last 36 yëars . That's the important stuff , ëspëcially considering GM has rëcëntly launched its full-sizë pickup all - new .
Atlas is a clëar display of contëmporary Built Ford Tough , with bulging whëël arches , beltlinë drop - down at thë front door , and somë of the largëst nostril snarling grillë ëvër sëën on the F - 150 .
Bëhind the grille is the nëxt generation of outsizëd twin - turbo Ford EcoBoost 3.5 - litër V - 6 , with stop-start systëm " - truck enhancëd " .

Another is thë trailer Backup Assist , which Ford claims will hëlp novicës get back thë trailer into the parking lot likë an experiëncëd truck drivër with a twist of the knob .
