Adjustable pedals! That's a flipping great idea! When you are tall and lanky like me the pedals are always too close even with the seat full back in some cars. And even when seats do adjust back far enough the steering wheel is often out of reach (notable exceptions: most BMWs, Mercedes C and E class, Mondeo Mk IV). Wish more cars here had adjustable pedals!
I have a 2018 f150 Lariat, super cab, 8ft bed, very smooth ride, very capable truck, Running e85 on the 5.0L very quick and snappy. Its a winner. great for road trips, great for work, everyday.
After watching Mats video at about 5.00 mins (th-cam.com/video/Bz_twBApgZY/w-d-xo.html) i'd be selling the F150 pretty soon and buying a VW Amarok, faster 1/4 mile and slightly better braking.
@@laurentiumanolescu for everyone outside of US, this cars don’t make sense, also where do you fit this cars anywhere? And I live in a rocky city with lots of hills.
@@laurentiumanolescu most people buy SUVs while living in big cities. Don't even try to defend that. If you love cars, you shouldn't like SUVs or trucks because they're not fun to drive. UNLESS you live in the middle of nowhere.
I have 3.5L 2015 Lariat. Fuel mileage is around 22mpg hwy and 16 city. Yes it's not as smooth as SUV but still very comfortable for long cross country trips. No rust issues with the aluminum alloy body. Still looks like new after 5yrs. Love my F150!
That Ecoboost is a pretty decent engine. That truck will easily get 20+ mpg just cruising down the highway and the power ain’t bad. Glad I got to rent an XLT last year for a road trip.
The interior doesn’t have expensive quality materials in it because the plastic is durable and it has large buttons in case you have gloves on. Obviously most people who buy this won’t be using them out on the ranch like *REE DRUMMOND MY GIRL*, but it’s built like that for the people who do use it for work.
People in America drive trucks now because of several factors. 1) Higher ride height. Allows you to see your surroundings better. Also allows you to go off road better without having to worry about dragging the ground. 2) Modern trucks are just as nice inside if not even better than cars. And in 4 door models, there's generally more room. And for full-sized SUVs like Yukons, Suburbans, Explorers, Expeditions, Escalades, and Navigators, you have all kinds of additional room. 3) And with trucks, pickup trucks specifically, you always have that bed available to haul large things if you ever find yourself making that impulse buy of a large TV. But the main difference between American roads and roads in Europe in general is that traffic lanes in America are 12 ft wide, and in Europe they are just 9 ft wide on average.
The smaller engines are fun and all, but if you haul heavy loads and keep the truck for long, you'll quickly notice how quickly these smaller engines will ware down. The V8 may not be as fuel-efficient, but it's definitely the more reliable option and you can get loads more power if you decide to modify it. The 5.0 is the same Coyote motor that's in Mustang GT so aftermarket support is HUGE, replacement parts are plentiful and cheap and people know how to tune these engines.
So i can’t speak on behalf of thr 5.0 but i have a gmc sierra with 6.2 V8 and i’ve done as well as 24.6mpg average on long roadtrips on the highway so i would be hard pressed to say these ecoboosts are more fuel efficient even. I typically average 18-19mpg
I do personally think that it probably is the best selling vehicle in the world in 2019, the video said it had about 1 million sales, which is very impressive
@@billwhiteathome2080 I own one and I've really been enjoying it. Spacious, smooth ride, nice sound system, good backup camera (you need it to park something so big tail-first in a normal parking spot), and some decent storage even in the Regular Cab F-150 I've got (a compartment under the center armrest). Add to that some excellent IIHS collision safety ratings and a solid reliability rating from J.D. Power and I think it's easy to see how the F-150 is so popular. Its only weak point is its headlights, but I can live with that.
The key pad entry is a great feature that no other brands have and if it's a real truck it has leaf springs. Dodges coil over rear ends almost require air bags right off the lot.
Hey Matt & CarWow team! Great idea on reviewing US cars! Looking forward to see the Lincoln reviews (Nautilus and Aviator) and see how they stand up to the German luxury SUVs.
It's funny to hear Europeans talk about this truck like its huge. Over here in the US, the F150 is a mid sized pickup truck. If you're serious about hauling or getting work done with your truck, you go for the F250 or another HD class truck which is even more yuge.
The F150 is very reliable,There are 40 year old Ford trucks still being used as daily drivers. It is lighter than most flagship European sedans. Have you driven an 2020 F150? Hold your Judgment until you do. The Ford Raptor cannot be matched by any other mass produced production truck at any price.
@@pandacheong2531 not angry, but had one for 10 days when I was last in Texas. It was sad. I enjoyed the experience, but was happy to get back home and into my VW Group vehicle.
@mike a definitely a lot smaller! I'll give you that. Enjoyed the high wide and handsome stance of the F150, but would never work over here. Our roads are half the width of yours, hence the smaller cars.
It looks so wrong on 18" wheels - I just about get away with 255/18s on my Navara (lets not talk about the dealer selling it with 225s on) on the F150 it doesn't look right at all.
I bought my 2nd F-150, an XLT aluminum 10-speed 5.0 Coyote V8 4x4 SuperCrew. Absolutely love it! My previous was an ‘09 Platinum. They last 300k miles and more, and do everything better than any other brand which is why more Americans buy them. My ‘19 came with a $16k rebate in September, by December you could get up to $20k off, so a low to sub $30k vehicle that will last.
I’ll tell you guys a secret... it’s only the best selling vehicle because they give fleets a MASSIVE deal. Take fleets out of the question and it’s not even close
I had a Toyota Tacoma, traded it in on a F150 Crew Cab with 4wd and a tiny 2.7 Ecoboost back in 2017, what I found, way better fuel economy, tons more comfort and gobs of power! In nearly 3 years and 45k not a single problem. Hauling Grammy and the grandkids it just absolutely perfect, running to the hone center not a problem at all. A honest 20.4 MPG if you drive her easy I can get 23 MPG on the highway, I’ve only owned average vehicles in the past, my wife if 38 years and I rate this vehicle as our best ever and she does like driving it or being chauffeured.
Here in the mountains of Canada the loggers all drive Fords. The only truck that can stand up to the rough roads. It's not rocket surgery. Just go with what works.
I have a 2016 Lariat myself with the 3.5L EcoBoost. And I love the thing. Goes really fast and gets really shitty gas mileage. 🤣 Nah, it averages 14.5 mpg. But I haven't taken it on long highway trips yet, so I don't know what it could get.
Spot on styling inside and out. Cockpit looks like a place I like to spend loads of time in. They should make an SUV version of this for people who don't want a pickup.
@@DavidFoundCo Don't really care if Russians prefer a Lada or a GAZ Volga. I live, buy, and drive in America. And the Ford pickup is the most popular vehicle, here. Ever.
I bought a new 2017 F150 STX and still have it! I normally change cars every 12 months but this one is so good I can't bare to trade it in. It has the 2.7 V6 with 330HP... it really moves! and I get 24mpg (in the states - who have smaller gallons than the UK, incase you didn't know). My 2017 STX has only covered 28K miles and still look like new. As for depreciation - I've lost less than $10K over 5 years which is insanely good! I paid $35,000 and my trade in is $26,000! I had it valued 2 weeks ago. It drives better than my wife's GLE Mercedes! Best purchase I've ever made.
I think people from the outside of North America looking in tend to think of our pickups as huge tradesman vehicles we try to use for everything and they did start out that way, particularly on farms. What you're missing is we pulled away from the station wagons we always had in favor of pickups. Station wagons are versatile vehicles but I wouldn't want to take one to a difficult to reach camping spot, or have to rent a truck because I can only fit so much in the back of my wagon. When you really break it down, especially looking at older American wagons and pickups they were very comparable engine and economy wise. Our pickups are just family wagons with a separate, more capable trunk. A large portion of people have grown up with pickups in North America and the bumpy-ish ride you don't even really notice. The long brake is because when they bite quick it can be jarring in a tall, long, vehicle. Long pedal is much easier to modulate safely, especially while towing. Our roads are bigger, distances between places are longer, real several thousand mile road trips are a thing because America is a lot bigger than most people realize. Having all your bags, cooler, tent, stove, heater, all in the bed is very nice and out of the way. And with a bed cover or canopy it's even more versatile. I get that it could see odd to see so many but it's just a versatile family hauler. A typical American home probably has a pickup or large SUV and commuter car. We, for the most part, also try to make economical choices with our engines and configuration and which vehicle to drive. A v8 Mercedes estate may be more fun to drive but isn't half as useful and probably gets similar fuel economy to the average pickup. Just my two cents
The Roadsters: I have literally pulled myself off the floor after reading your comment - priceless. Jorge O must have had a C-Max in a different life....
I love driving my f150 with the 3.5L Ecoboost. I hate the fact that I am taking it back into the dealer tomorrow for yet another repair. Less that 8000 miles and this is the 5th time already. Check engine light this time. Code states an issue with the turbocharger wastegate.
You forgot that the F150 offers blind spot monitoring with trailer coverage. That means you can tow your expensive boat or rv or horses and not ever have the fear of changing lanes into another vehicle.
I own a big BMW car and the other day I was parked right next to one of these F-150s in the Gatwick area and honestly my car was looking like a mouse next to an elephant. These trucks are really massive beyond belief

I get that it could see odd to see so many but it's just a versatile family hauler. A typical American home probably has a pickup or large SUV and commuter car. We, for the most part, also try to make economical choices with our engines and configuration and which vehicle to drive. A v8 Mercedes estate may be more fun to drive but isn't half as useful and probably gets similar fuel economy to the average pickup. Just my two cents
I love my F150 ! One of the best vehicles I’ve owned.
Then how bad were the other shitboxes you had to put up with?
The Roadsters: I have literally pulled myself off the floor after reading your comment - priceless. Jorge O must have had a C-Max in a different life....
I love driving my f150 with the 3.5L Ecoboost. I hate the fact that I am taking it back into the dealer tomorrow for yet another repair. Less that 8000 miles and this is the 5th time already. Check engine light this time. Code states an issue with the turbocharger wastegate.
Billy Beemus thats wild, I know no one with issues like that.
I’ve put 80K on one and 8K on another and both have been problem free.
Mat, I miss your "this is (insert car name here) and it's a little bit like (insert cheesy joke here)"
Please do it again
Is carwow planning to move to the us?
Old reviews were best where mat explains each & every single details of a car but now he isn't
I've rented 2020 F150 5.0L in December it's an awesome car(I've drove 1500miles). My daily driver is MINI Cooper S.
Pretty amazing sales figures on the world stage considering the car isn't officially sold out side of Americas.
“Cheap as chips” I’m stealing that now lol
10:34
“That’s what she said”
Bought an ‘04 F-150 crew cab for 1,500. It’s my first vehicle and it’s amazing.
The f 150 makes more power and carries more and pulls more.
CARLOS LAGO!!! One of my favorite car reviewers next to Matt
1:14 the truck has some damage at the back
Apfelprofi yea I noticed that dent too.
That's a built in dent for the Lariat model, smh...
Byron G there’s a dent
@@twinkieerella it's there for aerodynamic purposes...
Byron G
Maybe you’re joking or you have not seen the dent
Ford put their F150 on a peddle-stool & they love their fancy LED DRL running lights 👍
Matt: Best-selling car in the USA
Thumbnail: Worlds best selling car
It’s always nice to have a friend with one of these for when you need help moving.
Would like to see a 911 turbo S drag race against other competitors :D
@leicanoct that wont be a fair race
You forgot that the F150 offers blind spot monitoring with trailer coverage. That means you can tow your expensive boat or rv or horses and not ever have the fear of changing lanes into another vehicle.
I think this is the only video where mat actually uses "dollars" instead of pounds lol
mat: this is a tough truck it can tow 6.7 tons!!
cybertruck: hold my beer
The cyber truck is a different category of truck. The f-150 is a half ton truck.
Weird seeing a uk dude talk about how large the 150 is.here in usa it is normal size
This is one of the most popular cars on UAE roads.
Ken Tembe really? Don’t know why I find that so surprising
10:36 Totally not a sexual metaphor.
looking like johnny sins
Don’t worry I am sure one day you will lose your virginity
@@alanwayte432 I hope so for you as well.
8:01 "so your load doesn't slosh around all over the place"
I like the way you reviewed the FORD. Am getting one of this
Why is ford in capital letters?
I own a big BMW car and the other day I was parked right next to one of these F-150s in the Gatwick area and honestly my car was looking like a mouse next to an elephant. These trucks are really massive beyond belief
