All 3 HD truck manufacturers are price gouging their customers to fund EV development. Not sure about y'all, but that's not what I asked for.
People need to stop paying these ridiculous prices. Boycott
@@ajmedeiros77 That's right. I could squeeze my paycheck to buy a new truck. I actually ordered a Ram 2500 and 3500 this past year. Walked away from both. Time to clean out the garage and dust off that mechanics toolset.
That's why I'm not buying
hold onto your classic pickups
Don’t &@cking buy any of these. Full stop
Nice, you get that same package with the 4.30 gears and now you're really killin it.
It's sad times when a $55K truck is a base truck with a $1K off-road package.
$1K for 33" off road tires, locking differential, and skid plates is a great price but for $55K that total for a base Work Truck is crazy
This sentiment gets shared a lot but this same truck in 2005 was $28,000 (F350 / 4x4 / XL) adjusted for inflation that’s $43,000
If your wages kept up (not all have) it’s reasonable. Esp considering a 2023 base truck will be far nicer and drive way better + tow/haul more
@@tjhva I'm a working man so we know blue collar all most never keeps up with inflation unless you work for yourself. But you are right about this base truck is WAY better, rides better, looks better, tows more than a base 2005 truck.
You said $28k and after inflation it would be $45k, but that still is $10k less than today's $55k, so like I said that's even with inflation still high for a base truck with an off road package
Not too bad of a price for the package. The locking rear diff alone is $430, skids used to be $100 option, that leaves $465 for four Duratracs and shorter chin spoiler.
Just be grateful you ain't in Canada. Any HD truck that's a CC 4x4 is $70k before delivery fees and taxes.
@@nickzalan4762 ya and now they are adding in luxury tax which makes you pay an extra 5% of the total price including GST!! They make us pay tax on tax?!?!?!?! So (at least in Alberta) you buy a $100000 cad truck and after financing and taxes you're darn close to $120000. Simply ridiculous.
Love seeing a video on lower trim trucks! Keep up the good work!
When I was working for the State of California my work truck was a 2017 F250 XL CC 4x4 LWB 6.2L gasser with a service body. It also had the off road pkg on it. It was huge truck but it was very capable when driving off road.
I love the electronic parking brake. I had a 2019 trail boss that had it. Then went to a f250 tremor that didn’t have it. Now back to a Chevy 2500 hd high country and man did I miss it because when hooking up a trailer it will automatically lock in once under the ball. Also can just hit the gas and it goes off. And the hill start assist is amazing.
Thats basically the perfect setup dude, friggin love it.
Over 50k for an XL is way to much for a work truck. I bought my 2017 in 2018 with only 14k miles on it . Mind you it's a F150 but only paid 24,600 for it. These prices are so out of hand.
I noticed online you can combine the XL offorad package with the FX4 package.
Great Video!!
Fun fact: In Canada you can get this package with the 7.3L as well.
The F-250 in Lariat and higher trims comes standard with greater than 10k gvwr, optional on lower trims. 10k is the default gvwr for the F-250 in XL and XLT trim.
Badass truck
It looks like that F250 off-road has overload leaf springs, similar to an F250 tremor, are they the same rear suspension’s that are on the F350 ?
Thanks for your video! It is what I am looking as a step BEFORE going to the dealership....Yes I know the Ford Configurator is excellent and you can see this up close but there is no comparison without actual LIVE comparison.
Methinks I would settle for the Base Regular Cab F-250 XL 4x4 6.8L with the XL off-road pkg (A MUST!)., a bedliner (dealer or aftermarket), 410 (160+250) amp alternator AND dual batteries (would like to have this power combo for camping off grid), 4.30 elec locking axle ratio (nice to have too, faster acceleration but with a 10 speed to spread it out, who cares?) and the FX4 adds the offroad suspension.
Regular cab next to you. What is the payload of regular cab vs. 4 door.
Are you seeing any xlt 250 w/ tremor an pro power on board packages on the lots
Is the F250, super cab (not crew), 6’6” bed, 4x4, gas either 7.3 or 6.8, still made?
Great truck. You do an awesome professional demo sir.. I’m proud owner of the Lariat 7.3. I’ll be getting the shorter chin spoiler someday.
A great review- I will give them a call to check on some pricing- if you trust them - I feel they are worthy of my business 🍻
I wonder if they were trying to make a hybrid 6.8 hence its smaller size but then just gave up halfway
Stx on a HD looks really cool.
These are work trucks the steps are bad azz and will help in the oil fields
$900 isn’t bad for that off-road package as long as you don’t have to bundle it with some other high price package that you don’t really want.🇺🇸💪
Luckily you don't have to do that. It can be the only package on the options list.
I have owned numerous Fords over the years & wish my 21' F350 had come with the side steps. For the last 15+ years these trucks just keep getting taller & taller. I'm average height, but I can't reach over the sides anymore to get anything off the bed. The redesigned receiver to accept 'normal' chain hooks as well. I still do not understand the 6.8L. The spec's are so close to the 7.3L. It's just a de-stroked 7.3L. The build/website doesn't list it today, but I can't imagine there could be much cost diff(?). I have the 7.3L and its a great trailer puller. If the tranny is the difference, then I'd most certainly opt for the 7.3L. For ~$1700 more you can upgrade to a F350, which I did. My payload cap is 4480#. If you're going to spend close to $60k what another $1700.
What is that yellow step?
can you do the f350 dually 6.8 v8 xl 🙏🙏🙏🙏
GM is way behind Ford when it comes to heavy duty pickups.
Has snow plow pkg......so front will be a little taller also w/ the taller tires.
I like that truck but why do they not put the 18" tires on them?
Is that a yellow step ?
10r140 means 1400newton meters of torque which is 1035 ft lbs of torque
Did Ford discontinue the 7.3?
No. This is just a mini version of the 7.3. Trans is matched to the engine.
Carpet in a work truck is crazy, if it’s got to have carpet just get mats
I am really glad that I didn’t hold out for the 6.8 L. It’s not near as clean under the hood as the 7.3 I believe.
Furthermore, I think Ford busted on their goal of being class leading. Horsepower is about the same as the GM 6.6 gas and it has less torque than the 6.6 gas.
But, you, as always put together the best videos
The new Ford 6.8 L is fundamentally more racy than the 7.3 L, as it's the same bore dia. with .300" less stroke at .500" oversquare, and has a slightly higher compression at 10.8: 1 and both run on 87 Octane.
I believe the 10R-100 is a lighter tranny than the 10R-140 on the 7.3 and 6.7 Diesel engines which is a good thing in my opinion.
The Ford has to be much lighter than the GM's because of the aluminum body by about 400 pounds, but would be about 700 Lbs. if they didn't use some of that weight savings to beef up the rear axle and such.
The only thing that pisses me off is the no availability to order any Ford truck in Short bed Regular Cab configuration any more.
Still looking for a 2019 or newer F-150 4x4 Coyote short bed Regular Cab.
The Super Duty regular cab is only available with the 8ft bed but you should be able to get an F-150 with the 6.5ft bed, although you will likely have to special order one as no dealer would have one on their lot because it doesn't make money like a crew cab does. Ford is actually the best out of the three regarding this. RAM's new cab doesn't come as regular cab and the GM cab is ancient. Ford has the best cab and it's available in every configuration.
The 6.8 is a base engine. It's not supposed to blow the doors of the competition, which by the way has only one gasoline option, and for a base option the 6.8 compares favorably to the sole gasoline offerings of the competition.
Still you made the right choice, the 7.3 is the best, it's simply superb. Both the 6.8 and 7.3 absolutely destroy the Triton engines and the Boss is also beaten by them but it's obvious that Ford only introduced the 6.8 to have a low starting price while up-charging people who want the class-leader. Still, Ford is better than the competition.
No excuse why every truck doesn't come with LED lighting stock.... Id like to know more about this new motor.... Hopefully no DOD garbage. Hopefully port FI or combo like the 5.0 if direct FI.
Base trucks don’t have LED’s because it’s cheaper and easier to replace halogen bulbs which makes for noticeable savings when managing a fleet of trucks.
@@dirtbiker1745 I understand that, but at the prices these are going, still no excuse. The cost would be minimal if standard across the board. Halogens absolutely suck.
@@highwayman1218 I’ll agree with you completely that they should come with LED’s as standard for the price, however, the majority of base trucks are bought for fleets and the owners want halogens as the cost of replacing dozens of LED head lights adds up. I think the solution is that they come with halogens as standard on the xl, but you can get an LED lighting package on the xl for like $150. Great discussion though, Have a nice day!
It is a de-stroked Zilla. It still has PI and no DOD. It should be same block and heads (w/ a slight increase in CR). The 10R100 is a different tranny, but most all else the same.
@@dirtbiker1745the leds plug in the same as halogens 🤣
The bed steps should be an option. They do not look good at all.
No steering damper and it’s an off road package? Air dam not chin guard sorry had to say it my OCD was spiking lol 😉
It has one, pause at 3:52-3.53, you'll see the steering damper. These trucks need one even for on road use.
@@SM-ut6vb
Well I’ll be there is one there took me a couple try’s to see it which I did on the second attempt by increasing my screen brightness I stand corrected 👍🏻
It's an air dam for fuel efficiency.
What’s up with the one yellow step🤣
Regular cab vs. Crew cab.
FYI the "Chin guard" aka the Valance, it shorter on the other version because it has the offroad package for better ground clearance. The downside to this is that it will give you slightly worse MPG on the highway.
10r100 means 1000newton meter of torque
735 ft lbs
STX all the way. The non LED lights are goofy looking on the Fords. It’s a shame too because on previous generations they looked ok but not now.
The 6.8 will look like the 7.3 because the difference is internal. It has a shorter stroke. It’s going to feel stronger than the 7.3 empty. Sorry ford guys, but it will. It will rev faster and have a better top end due to the shorter stroke.
Also the Ford guy don’t like the steps because that’s a Chevy thing lol.
I don’t mind the steps , its almost reminiscent of the early model classic step side trucks
@@MrThatnativeguy yeah they are very useful, especially the bumper steps.
The way I see it if it’s a good idea they all should do it. Like when Ford first started having power extend tow mirrors. That was a good idea. Now they all do it.
Ford guys hating on the steps because it's a GM thing has got to be the most retarded thing ever. The competition has a good feature and you don't want your brand to have it as well? Weird.
Under 60k🙄 no base model truck is worth 50+k I don’t care if “it’s the new thing”. It doesn’t have to be if you don’t keep buying them. It’s not worth it.
BOYCOTT THESE WAY Overpriced garbage 🗑️ trucks! That’s a $40k pickup!
Nope. Nothing different here, it’s a Ford & the hoods open.
