Ford F-150 wins North American Truck of the Year

Aluminum pickup trumps Chevy Colorado and Lincoln MKC

Ford’s aluminum F-150 won the North American Truck of the Year award at the Detroit auto show on Monday. The independent jury includes 57 U.S. and Canadian auto writers and editors.
The F-150 beat out the new Chevy Colorado and the Lincoln MKC crossover. Ford received 297 votes, Chevy got 205 and the Lincoln garnered 68.
The new F-150 comes through with four engine choices ranging from the 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6 to the 5.0-liter Coyote V8. That new 2.7-liter returns an impressive 26 mpg on the highway.
The Chevy Silverado was last year’s winner, the VW Golf won 2015 North American Car of the Year
