Forget noisy, fuel-hungry generators. The 2025 F-150's Pro Power Onboard system transforms your truck into a mobile power station, providing up to 7.2 kW of exportable power on hybrid models and up to 2.0 kW on gas engine variants.

This integrated system powers essential camping equipment directly from your truck bed:

  • Lighting systems - Illuminate your entire campsite
  • Refrigeration units - Keep food fresh for extended trips
  • Power tools - Set up camp or handle repairs on the trail
  • Electronic devices - Charge phones, tablets, and cameras
  • Small appliances - Run coffee makers, fans, or portable heaters

Multiple 120V outlets positioned throughout the truck bed and cabin eliminate the need for extension cords, while the system's clean, quiet operation won't disturb the natural peace you came to enjoy.
