US truck market heats up with Ford and Chrysler debuts
Ford will unveil a redesigned F-150 at Detroit's auto show as Chrysler debuts a revamped Dodge Ram. Both 2009 models aim to boost sales amid a stalled housing market and industry-wide pickup declines. New features include lockable Ram bed storage, four-door crew cab, capless fuel system, stowable steps, lighter high-strength steel, and improved aerodynamics. Ford and Chrysler target better efficiency and new options to attract buyers despite economic pressures.
