had to special order mine. took 4 months. averaging 21mpg with the 5.0
A tiny little aluminum truck should do better tbh. And to look like a toaster for 45k. Ok
How is it I'm trying to find one
My honda crv gets 22 mpg and a pickup with a v8 is getting that basically. Wow
@@TheXOoftheRO Jealous much?
I had ordered but when they were asking 53+ and high interest, they could keep it
Is it just me or is this still a lot of money for what it is??
Welcome to the new world -_-
But do remember, JESUS is legitimate, proven, and he is the ONLY route of passage into heaven, through faith in him 😁😁😁
They don’t want you to have your own personal vehicle
@@tylerbuck9347 Youre not getting into heaven by harrasing random people online bro. Literally no one is converted this way, if anything they are turned away because you sound like a deluded cultist evangelizing under a truck vid. And God KNOWS you're doing this in lieu of giving all your money to charity to charity or all your time to the poor and downtrodden like Jesus did. You're literally virtue signaling, and He WILL know when the time comes.
No
$43k?!!?? How is the word “affordable” even applicable in this context?
$5000 less if 2 wheel drive
@@drumtwo4seven whew…that’s a relief…now it’s only $38k 🤪

@@offroad8055 That does include quite a lot of tech in a Plain Jane work/race truck though. Name ANYTHING in the US that you can order NOW off a configurator, with a V8 engine for as low as $36,875 ! Only THE '24 FORD F150 Reg. Cab Short Bed ! Then it goes Chevy Silverado WT $37,485 with current -$3,500 incentives, '23 Challenger R/T $41,640, Ford Mustang GT $42,480, '24 Ram 1500 (twice superseded Classic model), $43,745. The Ford is a relative bargain with its all digital gauge panel, 12" infotainment screen, 3.73 gears and locker plus LED headlights all std. too. A '23 model cost more with similar but inferior equipment ! So I know where you're coming from but THAT's great value in a post covid/current putin era !!
I like this bare bone F150 with the v8, but just not the 700 truck payment.
Have a down payment and it won’t be anywhere near 700/month

Ben, I recently bought one of these with the 3.73 rear end and locking rear diff. In the process of doing a 3/5 lowering kit and suspension along with Borla dual side exhaust. When it becomes available in the early Summer 2024 a Whipple Supercharger will be installed as well. Also 22" bronze/gold wheels and low profile tires. All in around $75k.
That sounds horrific
Id just buy a super snake at that point. Thats fucking horrible. 🤣
If your plan from the beginning was to install a supercharger, you should of gotten low 3.27 gears.
Everyone will be so broke in 2024 they won’t buy anything.
75k?....craziness
Thanks for reviewing single cabs 👍
if only they actually existed in the market
It's a clean slate to make a sweet build. Cool idea if you have the cash for it.
This is basically a more practical mustang with 4wd, I love it
way back in 2011, that was about $22,000.
Bought my stripped down 2014 F-150 big V8 8ft bed, ladder rack new gang box 80,000 miles real clean....paid 8000$ .....Love it.....find a low milage used one I highly recommend 😊
Way back in 1920 this would have been $450.
Way back😂😂😂😂
You can get it in 4x2 for under 40k.
also 2.7 would make it even cheaper.
@@redd7188only comes with 5.0

@@redd7188 2.7 not available on base model, only v8
If the base price was $30k it would be a deal, but 40k and 45k for 4x4 is a stupid price for what you are getting. Hope the market correction comes soon…
The market correction usually happens right after I pay for mine😂
The average price of new cars sold is $48,000. Welcome 2024.
It’s the only way to get 400hp for less than $40k. For the the exact same $37k Chevy/GMC gives an 4 cylinder turbo in its full sized regular cab short bed truck.
30k what is this 1996 LOL
@ idiots like you are the reasons why everything is expensive. Bend over and they’ll keep giving it to you LMAO
Payload is interesting on this truck. My 2020 is a regular cab short box with the 3.3 v6 4x4 and has 1700lbs of payload.
Right truck, wrong price. Get rid of the touch screen, digital display, and all of the not truck things I do not need. This is what I want in a truck just make it cheaper and we would have a deal.
Exactly, the screen and the digital gauges really bug me, the previous Gen base model had a better dash setup. They should have kept it.
@@bluerazor7049 its regulations the government makes all cars have that now.
Let's hope they loosen up since if the screen goes, it'll cost so much money for a replacement
@@bluerazor7049Let’s hope they start removing subsides for oil companies that allow them to sell inefficient cars.
When I was younger,that’s what most trucks were. Single cabs with short beds but there were a lot of long bed single cabs for work trucks. My dad had an 89 Silverado.
I am a Chevy guy but I want one of those!
Sold my C8 last week and ordered one of these in black....
@@Forever.Remain.Namelessi sell fords … wat part of town are you in ?

I agree these things rip too
My 22 Explorer ST is working on convincing me that Ford is garbage yet I am very fond of this F150.
I hear ya.
Explorers are garbage. Ford puts all their money into f150
Covid era UAW special
Why do you not like the explorer
With 400hp that's plenty of power for me plus 4WD good price all ya need is some nice wheels 😊
Don't forget the curb weight is great,it's going to be quick anyway.
My idea of the perfect truck. It reminds me of the 79 Chevy 2WD short box I had, except I bought that for $4,500 when it was 3 years old. Granted, it didn't have all of the luxury items this one does, but it served me well and I could fix almost anything myself.
Of all of the vehicles I've owned in the last 50 years, it's the one I miss most.
My 2018 XL regular cab 4x4 with only a few small options (all now standard on this review truck) was just shy of $35k list (but I got $5k off). That truck with the 2.7 liter isn’t currently available. With the V8 it’s $44k+ (w destination) as a 2024. So, maybe $8-9k difference but with more included especially the driver assist features, the 12 inch screen, Apple CarPlay. Not a terrible increase all things considered. Now wages haven’t kept up because the rich get richer and the poor and middle class don’t, but that’s a story for a different channel!
Finally a sensible person in the comments
Visibility in a single cab is outstanding. I miss my old 1995 Chevy single cab, the only vehicle I regret selling.
I wanted an F-150 but couldn't afford the prices. I ended up buying my son a 2019 Ram 1500 Classic Express regular cab short bed with 28K miles on it with the Hemi, 3.92 rear and LSD for $25K
How was the Ram 2019 express? I’m looking at 2 now on Carvana with v low miles for $27-29K
Maybe it’s just me but this could be a sweet little camping setup. Level it and put some all-terrains with a Alu-Cab topper and roof tent.
Yep that’s what came to mind
Ford is finally listening and not putting turbos in everything
The 5.0L has been an option as long as the Ecoboost has existed. At least in the F-150's.
@@nathanmcdonald610 I think he is talking about the FP700 kit with the supercharger instead of turbos direct from Ford.
they need turbos on their V-8's
Sadly it won’t be long before they are no longer allowed to put v8’s in them.
@@Commentleaver-c6x Yes and makes me sick we are being forced into it. A bunch of BS
FYI - if you want one of these Regular Cab Short Bed trucks, you’ll likely need to have it ordered for you. I was told that Ford doesn’t let dealers stock these under normal circumstances, and most dealers outside of Texas don’t have much demand for them…
That is correct
Where on the ford website you can add the supercharger kit? I don’t see it. Or do you need to order it ?
I have a 2021 version. Xlt with extras. Sticker was $46... with trade of a 2014 and some to boot $$ my paymt is $277per mo. I average 23 to 24 mpg. The truck will kmock your socks off. Mine has 85000miles!! No major problems!!!!!!!!!!
The coyote 5.0 is one of the greatest modern V8's created. She's a top breather, and loves to sing at high RPM's, so short rear end gearing is must to get the effect of more low-end torque.
If you were gonna go with an everyday V8 this is the way I would go
I've owned a few short bed regular cabs over the years. They were great, powerful and comfortable. Ram had something like this until a few years ago. Chevy only makes them for Mexico /export. This truck could be cheaper yet if it weren't four wheel drive, I think that's a 5000 dollar option.
These gonna be on the road for a long time
I think I found my next car 😅
Absolutely love it !!! I'll take it just as you have it, but in black !!!
2024 Ford F-150 XL 5.0L V8 10-Speed Automatic Regular Cab 4X4!
Whipple + labor+tires +traction upgrades
Remember when a truck use to cost 20k for just the standard! and 30k for the upgrade! Geez I miss those days! This is beyond ridiculous!
Amazing a truck with a V8!
I'v been looking for one of these in black for a month.
With the super charger add on, it still costs less than a Raptor! Definitely a sleeper
Haha nice truck. I like it 🔥🔥
I can't do the 10 speed it has to be 6 speed tops. The truck is also missing bedliner
Sure it's expensive, but I love the single cab/short"ish" bed look. The profile of this truck is excellent.
2wd is $5k cheaper. $38k for a 400hp truck with a good amount of modern features is not bad at all.
Wow, a reviewer mentions payload in a truck review. 👏
But also gets base price incorrect
i thought that supercharger kit was 9k ? AND where are you getting $8,000 in labor from?
I got a ranger leaks all over the place and is slow asf but engine still runs
Great truck to do whatever you want! I definitely need.
Ford got close but it’s still not close enough. If this was cheaper by getting rid of the fancy radio, fancy dash, blind spot monitor, lane watch/pre collision…you’d have a deal. All I would want is this exact truck 10 speed, 5.0 4x4 maybe even throw in the 4 auto t case option or a rear diff locker option
I’d slap on some cool wheels and tires tint the windows and call it a day
Leveling kit too
A S/C kit is under $15,000 installed with warranty there Ben, so you'd still be able to get a few options an stay UNDER $60,000 !!
Is the supercharger available already for 24? Thought a tune was not available for it just yet
It’s a great engine just the way it is. 400 horsepower is plenty enough.
Perfect for a small truck camper!
That's what I'm saying, I want the reg cab and long bed with shell for tools weekend get away put a little cot in the back and whatever else a guy needs be perfect and it fits in the garage!
No bed to smile
I just got an 98 Explorer with a 5.0 and I love it
Not even remotely the same engine. The old 5.0L Windsor that your 98 Explorer has in it shares only displacement with the modern day 5.0L Coyote. The Coyote is a DOHC TI-CVT V8 the Windsor is a much simpler pushrod OHV setup.
Different 5.0. Your explorer is running a Windsor 5.0 (also known as the 302 Windsor, yes, that same Windsor from the 60’s mustangs, just updated and changed over the years.)
The 5.0 in this particular truck Ben is reviewing is 5.0 Coyote, first produced in 2010 for 2011 model year mustangs and half tons.
Your 5.0 is still a wicked motor, but they’re not related in anyway, other than sharing their displacement (5.0/302).
@@nathanmcdonald610 False, it’s exactly the same engine, same horsepower, both flathead V8s.
@@greiner7414 Flathead coyote? Take your pills grandpa
@@greiner7414 And distributor in the front like it oughta be 😤
If you Google them, there’s a company that sells you the truck with the blower and it has a warranty on it
Wow, it wasn't terribly long ago that you could pick up something like this on sale for between $15k and $25k, depending on options and trim level.
Average new car sells for
$48k.
30 years ago is, in fact, long ago
400 hp day one is awesome as it is!
I like the simplicity of this truck. I think it’s awesome. The price is a bit steep. I was going to guess 35-37K
2wd is $38k. He incorrectly quoted the lowest price.
Does work truck mean you drive it to work or use it for work ?
Hi. When you say it costs MSRP 43K, does this include tax, fees, etc?
Bring back normal gauges...crank windows....no navigation....just give me the V8...AC..and cruise...
Yes, but power windows and mirrors are necessary to run the passenger side from the driver's position. Other than that, I totally agree!
Sorry but times have changed
You have some of the grippiest shoes I have ever heard
These types of prices is what happens when manufacturers quit building cars and moved to building trucks that customers wanted. It is was an away for rye manufacturers to raise their truck prices and over price a basis work truck. But in my opinion a basis work truck would be minus the V8 engine - auto transmission - 4 wheel drive and rear locking differential. It would be interesting how much less this truck would be without the things I mentioned. Back in the sixties let’s say 1965 even a radio was optional on a basis truck as was the cloth interior even a passenger sun visor was an option along with carpeting wasn’t included. A truck as I mentioned without the list of things would be the basic work truck. Minus those things maybe roughly ten grand could be deleted from its price. BTW In 1965 a pickup similar to this one but a six cylinder engine - stick shift - 2 wheel drive according to Nada was about $2,300 bucks. I am 78 now and can remember tow trucks or a really basic truck didn’t have four wheel drive even an ash tray was an option as was a cig lighter.
Damn maybe I should become a salesman lol
Nice truck and I want one but I don't need one...I have 3 vehicles already...
THE PERFECT TOY!
I wonder what it's actual performance numbers are? Maybe 14.0 1/4 mile?
More like mid to high 13s.
Hano Motorsports (TH-cam channel) has a 2023 RCSB F-150 that he’s gotten into the 11s without boost or nutritious. I believe weight loss, exhaust, intake manifold, suspension work, wheels/tires and an E85 tune. Pretty wild.
Nice truck-Almost!!! I bought a brand new 2014 mustang GT Stick shift, as everyone knows basically the coyote (Gen 1) motor had 420 flywheel HP and the redline rpm was approximately 8K rpm. The newer gen 4/5 were at least 460 hp. Why does this 2024 sleeper only have 400hp and from what I’ve seen 6/6.5 K redline? Just Sayin!
Cam profiles favor low end torque over peak horsepower, hence the lower redline. Easily changed with tuning.
My work truck is this same exact model and holy shit is it quick for a work truck. in sport mode this thing will snap your neck if you floor it between 4th & 5th😂
All it needs is bigger tires. I would not change the wheels. If you are making A real sleeper a two wheel drive should be even better. Also, 2wd is reliable.
What about the 700+hp actual sleeper build truck that was offered? a few videos on youtbue but no one driving one...
Dealers are going to bump everything.
He said 63 for everything,you need tires.and sales tax.
Just the just the V 8 power vs weight is really good.
I suppose if you do not have dealer provide super charger and install you lose warranty.
A while back I was quoted 18000 to turbo a Ram express single cab.
It was a well know speed shop.
He was sure it would run in 10 second range.
I paid 22000 for the truck with a good trade to take off taxes.
With wheels and tires then it would have been a 45000 dollar beast.
That was a while back.
With bolt ons and tune I got it to 500 hp.
It was a low 13 second truck.
This truck when finished will smoke a Vett.
I wonder about transmission and u joints holding along with rear end.
Even at 750 hp that's 240 addional hp.
Also on Mopar you cannot just super charge a 392 and boost it to over 700 hp.
The Hell cat was built to with stand the power and the redeye was built stronger than the hellcat at 800 stock hp.
You would have to know if the 5.0 could take that much boost for an extended time.
The weight is only 4700 on the Ford you would not need so much to get 600 hp.
Dear Ford, can I please have this in a non-turbo 4-cylinder engine for 25(k)? I don't pull, I don't haul, I don't need this much engine. I just want a basic, affordable work truck.
Dealers are going to bump everything
If Ford doesn't kill the Regular cab that will be the truck I buy when I don't need the land yacht I have now. I looked at the built/price page for the Regular Cab XL the other day. Am I to understand they only come in 4 wheel drive now? The reason I ask I know there are times the Ford build/price page isn't correct. Thanks Ben.
No, 2024 F-150 XL RCSB is… $38k for 2WD. $43k for 4WD.
Simpler the better, still runni g 2010 F150 FX2, 4.63v 250,000 miles
Paid $30,000 back in 2010 OTD
They're really charging more for 4x4 in the regular cabs than the crew cabs.
42k was the MSRP for my 2013 fully loaded Big Horn in which I paid 34k. Looks like I be driving that to my grave.
That's not the cheapest F-150 since it's a 4 x 4. Be interesting to know but I reckon maybe 2500 less? Considering one for conversion.
Fun idea. Thanks.
dream car
Sales is about knowing the product.
It's NOT the cheapest, 2024 f150.
Look around, 38 ish for the v8 5l
Base MSRP for the 4x2 is $36.770 add $5k for 4x4.
Nice truck , still to much for a basic pickup, I will buy a pre owned Ford F 150 .😎
1700 pounds payload is not good. My 2016 super cab xlt 4x4 has a payload of over 2,000 pounds. I’m confused. This truck should weigh less and have even better payload?
At today's prices this truck is a relative bargain.
44k still way too much
Wake up. We all have cell phones. We buy international
Toyota champ 10k deliver 2k mods 5k
It’s mine
Before you strap a blower to it get some brakes
The plastic makes it tough especially the engine and it can't carry a camper too live in
Isn’t 4x4 a major option? So, if you didn’t get 4x4, it would even be cheaper.
Yeah, he eff’d that up. 4wd adds $5k
Do I review on the red truck in the video.
For long touring.?
I’m so confused
I’ve been watching other videos where these guys from some dealership say that with the supercharger the total price is less than 46k
But every other video I’ve seen shows different
4x2 truck is like 36/37k. That plus a supercharger gets you there.
Buy a used one with more options and add a supercharger to that instead.
$43,000 for stock F150 V8 or the new Ford Ranger V6? I’m thinking F150 V8.
43 for what? You gettin the crew cab or 4x4 or something? This, bone stock, starts at 36k
@@tylerbuck9347I ordered one with the 103a package for 46k out the door
here in cali they 35k new
Even in today’s market I’d say no more than 30k.
Love it but expensive. I laugh everytime people think it's weird being a single cab, if you were born before 2000 single cabs were normal and everywhere
Ford should have put turbos on the coyote motor to be in line with the rest of their engines.
Some dealers are offering the sleeper package for under $50k
those aren’t 4x4.. still a good deal in my opinion
ty for the review ... it's truly fun toy to drive but you're better of borrowing those keys instead of paying for em ;)
You right I wouldn't pay 43 k for that.
Yeah I looked it up on a lot 40,000 just for truck
Yep a light weight 400 plus hp truck in 4x4 would make a cool ride.
I have a ram BackCountry quad cab,and I'm at 5000 pounds.
3.92 rear and the 4 auto for launch I do 5 second 0 to 60 I have a magna flow exhaust and 18 inch rims.
I'm not wanting to mess up and blow a motor.
The most I will do is have it tuned.
