Make Your Truck Work Even Better for You with Ford Truck Accessories

May 5th, 2025 by

At their core, Ford pickup trucks are tools. They can certainly be more than that. With four-door cabs, they can serve as family vehicles. Higher trim levels can even elevate them to luxury status. The Ranger and F-150 Raptor models could even be viewed as really big toys. However, fundamentally, these trucks are tools designed to assist you with any task you require. No matter what you do with your pickup truck, there’s likely an accessory available through the Dick Smith Ford Parts Center to enhance your experience. 

For example, adjacent to your truck bed is the rear window. If you regularly carry loads that require you to be cautious not to impact that window, the Boss Cab Protector features a metal grid designed to protect both the rear window and the back of the cab.

If your job involves a ladder longer than your truck bed, it can reside more safely with a THULE ladder rack rather than letting it hang out the back. Similarly, if you frequently transport your bicycles in your truck, there are options to mount them directly to the front of the bed. If you carry a lot of cargo with your bicycles, the Yakima bike rack positions the bikes above the bed. Alternatively, you could mount them above the cab; in that case, it might be nice to have running boards for greater access when mounting and dismounting. Of course, there are also attachments for skis, snowboards, kayaks, and other recreational items.

Or maybe you just need to carry plenty of tools with you and want them to be both accessible and secure. Ford has toolboxes that can be mounted on the driver’s side of the bed, the passenger side, directly behind the cabin, or even fill the bed while being covered, lockable, and featuring a slide-out drawer for easy access. Of course, there are also cabin-height caps to keep large items in the bed secure. Chances are, whatever you do with your truck bed, someone has thought of a device to make it work better and/or easier, and Ford sells a version designed specifically to fit your full-size, mid-size, or even compact truck.

Of course, it isn’t only about the truck’s exterior. For your truck cabin, you’ll find everything from simple all-weather floor mats to security vaults or safeboxes in various locations to even a portable power freezer. And we haven’t even touched on all the items available to personalize your truck’s appearance, reflecting your unique taste inside and out.

Another benefit of using Ford accessories is that all Ford Original Accessories come with a warranty for 24 months/unlimited miles or the remainder of your Bumper-to-Bumper 3-year/36,000-mile warranty, whichever is more advantageous for you. Ford Licensed Accessories are covered by the accessory’s manufacturer’s warranty for 24 months/unlimited mileage or the remainder of your Bumper-to-Bumper 3-year/36,000-mile New Vehicle Limited Warranty, provided they are purchased at the time of vehicle sale.  

Once again, whatever your need may be, it is likely that someone developed a Ford truck accessory to address it. You can find solutions to all your truck-related needs and challenges you haven’t even considered on the Ford Accessory site. After identifying what you need, you can order it through the Dick Smith Ford Parts Center, and if the installation is complex, our Service Center can handle it professionally.
