CarMax Ford F-150 Clearance 2026: Prices, Models, Features And Inventory Considerations

The Ford F-150 continues to be one of the most widely recognized full-size pickup trucks in the United States. The model is offered in numerous configurations covering work, towing, family transportation, off-road driving, and everyday use. CarMax carries a large selection of used Ford F-150 trucks from different model years, trims, mileage levels, engines, cab configurations, and drivetrain types.

What Is A CarMax F-150 Clearance Listing?

A clearance-style F-150 listing generally refers to a vehicle that has received a price reduction or is being sold at a lower price than a previous listing.

CarMax does not treat every used vehicle as a conventional manufacturer clearance vehicle because most CarMax F-150 inventory consists of used vehicles.

A price reduction can occur because of:

  • Market changes
  • Vehicle age
  • Mileage
  • Local demand
  • Inventory levels
  • Seasonal pricing
  • Competitive pricing
  • Changes in used-truck values
  • Previous listing price

CarMax's current F-150 inventory includes listings specifically marked with a “Price drop” filter, showing that some trucks can receive reductions from previously listed prices.

Current CarMax Ford F-150 Inventory

CarMax currently lists more than 1,200 Ford F-150 vehicles across its inventory system, covering model years from 2014 through 2026.

The inventory includes:

  • XL
  • XLT
  • STX
  • Lariat
  • King Ranch
  • Platinum
  • Limited
  • Tremor
  • Raptor
  • SVT Raptor

The exact number of listings changes continuously as vehicles are sold, added, transferred, or repriced.

The wide inventory range makes it possible to compare older, lower-priced F-150 trucks with newer, higher-priced configurations.

2026 Ford F-150 Listings

CarMax currently lists several 2026 Ford F-150 models.

Recent listings include a 2026 F-150 STX with approximately 4,423 miles priced at $44,998. The truck has a 2.7-liter turbocharged V6, four-wheel drive, 325 horsepower, and 400 lb-ft of torque.

Another 2026 STX listing is priced at $45,998 with approximately 4,098 miles.

A 2026 F-150 Tremor with approximately 4,107 miles is listed at $65,998 after a displayed $1,000 price reduction from $66,998.

These listings demonstrate how trim and equipment can create a large difference in pricing even within the same model year.

2026 F-150 STX

The STX is positioned between the basic XL and higher trim levels.

The current CarMax 2026 STX listings include:

  • Crew Cab
  • Four-wheel drive
  • 2.7-liter turbocharged V6
  • 325 horsepower
  • 400 lb-ft of torque
  • Automatic transmission
  • Rear-view camera
  • Parking sensors
  • Apple CarPlay
  • Android Auto
  • Bluetooth
  • Tow hitch

The STX can therefore combine work-oriented pickup capability with a broader collection of technology and comfort equipment.

2026 F-150 Tremor

The Tremor is designed with an emphasis on off-road capability.

The current CarMax 2026 Tremor listing has a 5.0-liter engine, four-wheel drive, approximately 4,107 miles, and a listed price of $65,998 after a $1,000 price reduction.

The listing includes features such as:

  • Running boards
  • Tow hitch
  • Navigation
  • Front-seat heating
  • Blind-spot monitoring
  • Parking sensors
  • Rear-view camera
  • Automated cruise control
  • Remote start

The higher price compared with an STX reflects the different trim positioning and equipment.

Older Ford F-150 Models

CarMax inventory also contains many older F-150 trucks.

The current inventory spans model years from 2014 through 2026.

Older models can provide lower purchase prices, although mileage and condition can vary substantially.

A 2020 F-150, for example, can have a very different price from a 2024 or 2026 truck even when the basic model name remains the same.

2023 Ford F-150 Example

Current CarMax inventory includes a 2023 F-150 XLT with approximately 28,350 miles priced at $40,998. The listing shows a 3.5-liter hybrid engine, four-wheel drive, and a Crew Cab configuration.

This example demonstrates how a relatively recent used F-150 can remain at a substantial price because of its trim, hybrid powertrain, drivetrain, and mileage.

2020 Ford F-150 Example

Current CarMax listings include 2020 F-150 models at lower prices than newer trucks.

One example is a 2020 XLT with approximately 58,119 miles priced at $32,998. The truck has a 2.7-liter turbocharged V6 and four-wheel drive.

Older F-150 trucks can therefore provide a lower entry price while retaining many of the pickup's core capabilities.

F-150 XL

The XL is the work-oriented entry-level trim.

CarMax's 2026 F-150 research page lists an XL Regular Cab 2WD configuration with a 2.7-liter turbocharged engine producing 325 horsepower and 400 lb-ft of torque.

The listed configuration includes:

  • Regular Cab
  • Rear-wheel drive
  • 2.7-liter turbocharged engine
  • Automatic transmission
  • Cruise control
  • Rear-view camera
  • Apple CarPlay
  • Android Auto
  • Tow hitch
  • Parking sensors
  • Lane departure warning

An XL can be useful for work-focused applications where premium interior features are less important.

F-150 XLT

The XLT adds more comfort and convenience equipment compared with the XL.

CarMax currently shows more than 600 XLT F-150 listings in its broader inventory.

The large number of XLT listings means there can be substantial variation in:

  • Model year
  • Mileage
  • Engine
  • Cab
  • Bed
  • Drivetrain
  • Interior equipment
  • Price

This makes the XLT one of the most frequently encountered F-150 configurations in used inventory.

F-150 Lariat

The Lariat sits higher in the F-150 lineup.

CarMax currently lists more than 180 Lariat F-150 trucks in its broader inventory.

Lariat models can include more advanced interior and technology features.

Depending on model year, equipment can include:

  • Leather seating
  • Larger displays
  • Premium audio
  • Power seats
  • Heated seats
  • Advanced driver assistance
  • Larger wheels

The exact equipment should be checked for each truck.

F-150 King Ranch

The King Ranch is a premium F-150 trim.

It typically features distinctive interior styling and higher-end materials.

CarMax currently lists several dozen King Ranch F-150 trucks in its inventory.

Pricing depends heavily on model year, mileage, drivetrain, engine, and equipment.

F-150 Platinum

The Platinum trim emphasizes premium equipment.

CarMax currently lists several dozen Platinum F-150 vehicles.

Typical features can include:

  • Premium leather
  • Advanced audio
  • Large wheels
  • Enhanced technology
  • Heated and ventilated seats
  • Advanced driver-assistance systems

A Platinum truck can command a significantly higher price than an XL or XLT even when the model year and mileage are similar.

F-150 Raptor

The Raptor is one of the most performance-oriented F-150 configurations.

It is designed around high-performance off-road driving and includes specialized suspension, tires, bodywork, and powertrain equipment.

CarMax currently lists dozens of Raptor and SVT Raptor F-150 vehicles.

Raptor pricing can be considerably higher than standard F-150 configurations.

The Tremor sits within the off-road-oriented side of the F-150 lineup.

It can include:

  • Specialized suspension
  • Off-road tires
  • Four-wheel drive
  • Off-road drive modes
