Compare Truck Features & Specs
Overview
At Century Buick GMC, we know choosing the perfect truck is vital to your lifestyle and performance needs. If you're comparing the 2025 GMC Sierra 1500 and the 2025 Ford F-150, this guide can help you determine why the Sierra 1500 stands out.
Capability and Power Options
The Sierra 1500 brings robust engine options tailored for a variety of needs. With the standard TurboMax™ engine, there is an impressive 310 horsepower and 430 lb-ft of torque! Its available 6.2L V8 engine delivers 420 horsepower, ensuring outstanding towing power and on-road performance. Additionally, the Sierra Duramax® 3.0L Turbo-Diesel engine stands out for incredible efficiency without sacrificing torque — perfect for long drives or heavy hauls around Tampa. The bold 5.3L engine also delivers big on power.
The Ford F-150 remains impressive with a range of engines, including the popular EcoBoost® options. However, when comparing standard power, the 2.7L V6 EcoBoost® engine on the base F-150, while offering slightly more horsepower with 325 horsepower, lacks in torque with only 400 lb.-ft. of torque. This engine also only offers 8,400 lbs of towing capability compared to 9,500 lbs for the 2025 Sierra 1500 TurboMax™ engine when properly equipped. For dynamic Tampa lifestyles requiring both strength and efficiency, the Sierra 1500 provides the perfect balance compared to the F-150.
Premium Comfort and Convenience
Step into the Sierra, and you’ll find a cabin defined by luxury and comfort. High-end touches, such as genuine wood trim, leather-appointed seats, and advanced heating options, elevate your driving experience. The Sierra 1500 also offers features such as a 13.4-inch diagonal center touchscreen and 15-inch head-up display for unparalleled connectivity and accessibility, making it a standout in the Tampa area. You will also experience spacious front head and leg room, and other great tech features like an offered premium Bose® sound system.
The F-150 also delivers many modern conveniences, with a spacious interior and advanced infotainment system. While it’s functional, it doesn't quite match the Sierra refined material quality and attention to detail. For Tampa drivers who prioritize both function and refinement, the GMC Sierra 1500 interior feels more tailored and premium compared to the F-150 interior design.
Confidence Behind the Wheel
Safety is at the core of the 2025 Sierra 1500. With GMC Pro Safety, you’ll enjoy a comprehensive suite of advanced safety tech, including features like Forward Collision Alert, Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning, and Following Distance Indicator. The F-150 includes many standard safety systems, with features like Automatic Emergency Braking and Forward Collision Warning. While reliable, it lacks the comprehensive assist features of the Sierra 1500.
While the 2025 Ford F-150 is undoubtedly a strong contender, the 2025 GMC Sierra 1500 shines with greater refinement, versatility, and cutting-edge features, making it the smarter choice for those seeking both power and luxury in Tampa, FL.
