The 2011 Ford F-150 will receive an updated instrument panel that includes an all-new driver information computer shared with the 2011 F-Series Super Duty, according to sources familiar with the truck.
Ford’s so-called “Productivity Screen” is built around a 4.2-inch LCD display that provides graphically rich data to the driver, including information related to fuel economy, towing and off-road performance. The LCD is positioned between the tachometer and speedometer and its menus are navigated through a five-way button on the steering wheel.
Asked for comment about the new feature, a Ford spokesperson told PickupTrucks.com, “We will be revealing 2011 F-150 details closer to its customer launch later this year. However, our customers have come to expect F-Series trucks to continually improve and they won’t be disappointed with the new model.”
Here’s video of the Productivity Screen in action in the Super Duty:
