Interior Features

While the F-150 and Silverado provide interior comforts that ensure you enjoy your ride, they have some differences. You may find the materials are of higher quality in the Ford, and the knobs and controls are easier to access. Even in the base F-150 trim you get cloth seating surfaces, while the Silverado only offers vinyl seating in the base trim. In both models, upgrading your trim level offers additional comfort-enhancing features such as heated and ventilated front seats, a heated steering wheel, and an improved sound system.

You’ll have a few cab size options with both trucks, and the maximum seating capacity is six people. In the Ford F-150, you can opt for front bucket seats in any trim level, which allows you to add the large center console with storage space and drink holders. The center console doubles as a work surface to give you a place to fill out invoices, type up emails, or whatever else life throws your way.

Exterior Features

The 2024 F-150 and Silverado trucks are two appealing options with assertive and aggressive looks. Depending on your style, you can get your F-150 in one of several paint colors that can make the truck stand out or blend in. Some popular choices include:

• Atlas Blue Metallic.
• Carbonized Gray Metallic.
• Shelter Green.
• Rapid Red Metallic.
• Antimatter Blue Metallic.

You won’t have quite as many exterior color options for the Silverado, but some of this truck’s most popular options are:

• Red Hot.
• Glacier Blue Metallic.
• Sterling Gray Metallic.
• Lakeshore Blue Metallic.

The F-150’s Pro Access tailgate is an innovative feature with a driver-side approach swing-out door that lets you easily access the truck bed, even when a trailer is hitched up. You can also get a separation wall that can move along bars on either side to let you configure the space to meet your needs. The Silverado has a functional truck bed with a tailgate that features a step that makes getting in and out of it a breeze.

Safety Features

Safety features and driver-assist technologies are abundant in the Ford F-150 and Chevrolet Silverado pickups. Every F-150 comes with Ford Co-Pilot360 2.0 technology. This safety suite includes helpful features that make driving and towing less stressful. For example, the blind-spot information system with trailer coverage means you’ll feel safe changing lanes, as the system warns you if there’s someone in your blind spot, even when you’re towing. It also features pre-collision assist with automatic emergency braking to help you avoid collisions.

Although the Silverado doesn’t have as many standard safety features, you can opt for the advanced camera with 14 views of your truck’s surrounding area. This camera system can simplify hitching up a trailer. Standard safety features for the Silverado include a following distance indicator and front pedestrian braking.

Technology Features

Whether on the job site, hitting the trails, or cruising to the campground, your 2024 F-150 or Silverado will keep you connected. The F-150 comes with a standard 12-inch capacitive touch screen with swipe capability. It’s compatible with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Use the standard Wi-Fi hotspot to connect up to 10 devices, and the available wireless charger means your devices are always ready to go.

In the Silverado, you can use the standard 7-inch touch screen to connect your smartphone using wireless Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. There are two USB ports in the center console, and upgrading your trim gets you even more USB ports in the cab. Like the F-150, the Silverado has a standard Wi-Fi hotspot, but this one can only support up to seven devices.
