Full size trucks come equipped with larger motors such as a V8 or a diesel motor. Most Chevrolet Trucks now come standard with a 4.3L, 5.3L, or 6.0L gas engine.

Ford has engine sizes such as a 2.3L four-cylinder, 3.7L V6, 4.0L V6, 5.0L V8, 5.4L Triton V8, 6.2L V8. The diesel engines powering the new 2011 Ford F250 and F350, is a 6.7L Powerstroke V8.
