The 2015 Ford F-150's bumper hits the bank full on as it barrels over a hill in the wilds of south Texas. The big truck shrugs it off.

Not a flinch. Not a tingle.

Nail the throttle and the 325-horsepower, 2.7-liter V-6 engine's twin turbos launch the 4,806-pound beast out of the gulch and onto the next hill. Hill after muddy gulch after rocky creek bed goes by like this without a groan from the chassis.

For those who thought an all-aluminum body would compromise Ford's "Built Ford Tough" reputation, think again. This F-150, whose predecessors have been America's top-selling vehicle for 37 years, is tougher than ever.
