$2 GRAND FOR DELIVERY!! THATS INSANE..
Absolutely Sam! Supercharge this bad boy and you a have great sleeper truck!
In Canada the dealer ads say 2024 F150’s starting at $49,000 now. I have to assume that’s a 2wd XL regular cab pickup. A XL Supercrew is listed at $68,000 plus tax and fees so roughly $80K out the door. These prices are beyond insane.
If you could only get it with manual windows, AM radio, bench seat and NO tablets.
and no ABS brakes or tire sensors , in fact get rid of airbags , seatbelt is fine with me , don't need the traction either , AT tires takes car of that
@@Olds_Pwr why the f would you want radio when Spotify exists
@@TexasNationalist1836 I have Sirius XM and it appears to be all repeats. Plus I like simple.
Awesome single cab. Love it in the 4x4 model 😊
Single cab looks real sporty. Double cab just looks awkward.
Think about that 400 Horsepower! Remember in 2000 the Lighting only had 360 Horsepower and it was Supercharged
I just got my 2023 xl 5.0 reg cab short bed 2wd. I picked it up at World Ford in Pensacola Florida with 25 miles on it and drove back home, 860 miles. I have to say, the xl is a very loaded truck and very comfortable! I got a little over 20 mpg on the trip. Who needs power seats and a bigger "tv screen" in a reg cab truck...lol certainly not me! For the price difference between the xl and xlt.. the xl is a win by a long shot..especially $15k-$30k price difference. I paid $36k for mine
That sounds like a neat truck. Flip that in sports mode and that V8 is wow.
@@Random_DIY I'll have to try that.. haven't even got into any of the "modes" yet except turn off the start/stop everytime you come to a stop.. hate that. Lol
I like that they are available with the choice of vinyl seats. FWIW my 2012 Silverado with the old timer cast iron 4.3 only gets 19 on a trip down I-95.
@@chuckgladfelter yeah I prefer the vinyl seat because I'll be working out of the truck some and sweating.. sweat soaks into cloth..lol
I have to say.. overall, the truck is supper comfortable and gets great gas milage(for a 400hp truck)
Things I don't like.. all the gadgets and the "tv screen" buy that's how it is these days. I somehow turned the radio off, or it just turned itself off when I had my phone connected to it and have no idea how to get back to the radio..🤣🤣
@@Random_DIY 36k is crazy for a steel wheel xl......lol
My nephew just got his from Ford.. pricey but he said it is one hell of built truck! Not just the 700 hp.. but overall quality of the truck.. Im getting one later this year
That is pretty cool, good luck finding a shot bed single cab.
You likely wont. Like anything desirable today you have to go to your dealership and order it.
I ordered the XLT rcsb in May and it arrived in August, it was worth the wait.
That pickup is a home run.👍
Yeah, the problem is that truck is still about $45,000....plus interest.
Remember when that kind of scratch bought you a nice Lexus and not a new base model work truck? 🙄
Welcome to the new world. I don’t think we will ever see base model pickups in the 20s again.
We can only if imbeciles stop paying full prices for it it's the consumer that controls prices if people came together and said NO we will not pay those prices eventually the prices will drop
lol that base model truck has as many features as that Lexus at this price range minus the cloth seats.
@@nathanrivers9860 Yeah, that is why it costs $45,000. Which is the problem.
@@nathanrivers9860 ........give the consumer the option of vinyl seats or crank windows...but its about the greed!
Love my 4x4 5.0 it's a beast
No analog speedometer? Well looks like more electronics to break. No wonder why trucks cost so much.
I completely agree with you!
Buy the 2023 model then.
@@pulsatingsausageboy2076 or older
Any speedometer works electronically... It's not like in a watch where everything works mechanically. Plus, I'd worry much more over the 10 speed automatic than freaking gauge clusters lol
@@Caterpillar_1967 I have a first year 10 speed and I have had zero problems soo far knock on wood. Idk I think everyone overthinks things. Just do maintenance and don’t beat the truck like it’s a video game and you should be alright. I’ve always been the guy that goes and buys the things most people are scared to buy. Like the 6.0 power stroke I heard nothing but nightmares I said let me find out for myself and yet I found the complete opposite… my 6.0 never left me stranded once and I put over 40k miles on that truck in less than 2 years.
Love regular cabs I don't need a station wagon in a truck
Great looking truck! I like it.
Totally Awesome work truck
Work trucks come with 8 foot beds.
I hear all these rumors about cheap trucks coming, but if they had descent engines they'd be worth it.
So no more xlt reg cab? What about the people that want carpet and nice trim? Smh
They are all basically built the same way with no regard to what the customer wants.I wanted to order a rattler model but not available in regular cab and neither was the tremor.I told the guys at Ford you already made the raptor mandatory stretch cabs from day 1 so you cant give a regular cab option in one of the other models?I didn't want power windows either but they have been mandatory for awhile.Also they had orange on there paint chart but that turned out to be raptor only which is rediculous, if you have a color available offer it on everything like you used to.They took away manual transmissions and transfer cases so no options there..Who wants to pay that kind of money only to get a truck built the way they want to build it and not how you would like it to be?
Exactly
Idk if I am insane however, I think I might have a solution to your truck issue. Step 1 get yourself a gmc savana or chevrolet express van either used or new doesn't matter only make sure that it is only the van version and not the passenger one. Step 2 disable the car battery, take out the rear headlights and the wires connected to them. Step 3 get yourself a angle grinder, a angle grinder component boxkit, a plasma cutter, a mig weld, welder clothes, welder helmet (highly recommend the ones that use solar to be activated aka automatic), some good old steel ish shoes, welder gloves, some hearing protection, gasmask or something that protects your lungs and some glasses. Step 4 use the saw blade for the angle grinder or either the plasma cutter and then start cutting off half the wall and the van roof so you can turn it into a truck bed. Step 5 depending if the vans got a wall or not weld a wall behind the driver cabin and modify it to your liking Step 6 steal some cheap rear headlights from a car that replaces the original ones Step 7 either glue or drill the replacement rear headlights into the back of it Step 8 then connect those wires and the replacement rear headlights together and make sure that they are not done lazily etc Step 9 connect the car battery again Step 10 done. Step 11 Checking myself into a mental hospital
That's a very interesting thing you have discovered. So the 3.3 liter naturally aspirated V6 is gone for 2024. I would skip the $1,000 XL HIGH (103A) and opt for the $100 rear privacy glass as a stand alone option.
You can still get the 3.3 today, it's $320 for stand alone privacy glass.
@@cesarpalmos8235 in a 2024 model?
How is 55k cdn plus tax for a stripped down work truck a bargain? Considering most of these trucks were not more than 40k cdn before COVID-19 hit
Another interesting option would be the XL reg cab with the 8ft box with the 3.5EB. Less than 150lbs heavier than the 5.0 6.5ft bed. That would be a rocket. It would sound like a minivan lol, but would definitely take down the stock 5.0 in this video. Can't beat the sound of that 5.0 though, and of course big power numbers are to be had with adding the whipple.
Yeah have fun with the overpriced EcoBoost truck till it breaks mate and costs you so much in repairs, don't believe me then go watch Scotty Kilmer and he'll tell you the real truth about turbo engines ingeneral.
They will get you to 200k with normal maintenance, just get ready to drop a timing chain or another low mile engine in, 5.0s are about the same
@chillwill5080 My 2011 Ford F150 with a 5.0L Coyote V8 has 157,000 miles on it and still going strong mate.
@chillwill5080 Have fun working on these overpriced trucks mate
@chillwill5080 Yeah right mate
For that price, that is a really nice pickup truck...If I could get a similar one at the price point for a 4 door I would pony up some scratch...well done Ford...Sam you need to do a review on more basic models...thanks for the update!
We wish car companies would put base models in their press fleets, but they don't. Base models are the last thing they want to sell or publicize unfortunately.
@@TestDrivenTVit's because no one really wants a single cab for personal use nowadays. They make it for companies and cities to use it as a proper work truck.
I bought a '23 and so glad I did. XL no longer allows center console and 8' bed crew cab. Both are awesome features on my truck.
Eight foot long beds are only available on regular and super cab F150's, not crew.
You are correct. I meant Super Cab. They are no longer going to offer 8' bed and Super Cab in 2024. @@Sir.VicsMasher
You have a CC 8' bed?
You can always buy the center console aftermarket and just swap it in. Thats what I'm planning on doing with mine as soon as I get it.
@@63Imp283 Yes, center console and 8’ bed. Both are very handy features in our truck.
In 1997 new 4x2 6cyl $12,999. Way out of my league these days.
Adjusted for inflation, that would be $24,843.56 today.
@@cesarpalmos8235 and 25 k would be doable but not 38k!
Love it, would love to have this V8 sleeper in a crew cab 4x4. I have the 2016 XL crew cab with the 3.5 v6….great truck and best part it’s paid for finally. I’ll be satisfied at present and get a Mustang next🙏🏼
You should get one. Would be great for the channel
Supercharger plus cat back exhaust please
I COULD NOT AGREE WITH YOU MORE ! Now though, every one will see this Reg. cab short bed as a Wolf in sheeps clothing if it's a '24 ! My counter to this new dilema is....yes, the '24 Reg. cab LONG bed for $36,870; .... not a lot heavier, not much costlier ($300), more space, and puts a bit more weight over the rear end for traction....in sleeper work truck white ! Dealer fit Whipple, may need to tick the 4wd option; but a $50,000 , 700hp 4wd sleeper work truck with waranty is a bit of me !!
Unless things changed for 2024, you can’t get the dealer whipple with an 8 foot bed. I have a 2022 and I looked into it when Ford announced the super charger.
I own 2007 F-150
I'm looking to buy new. Base XL short bed.
I found a 2016 sb,reg cab 4x2 2.7 turbo 3.73 locker with chrome package tt package...with 47,000 miles.only it was a roadside assistance truck...has lights on top drilled thru the cab😢...fixable,but killed it for me.
With the price of vehicle's any more. I put a 400 horse 302 in a 2000 Ranger. 2wd short bed 5 speed 3:73 posi. Small, fast and paid for.
Doesnt rly tick the category of nice and reliable. Just saying
Base truck/hot rod? Vroom, vroom!
mine is a 2018 single cab V8, i will update for a 2024 single cab V8 for sure!
But the base is now $40,000, it better come with the power!
Well how does 400hp base with a std 3.73 locker rear sound to you ?!
Prob is then you have to add 4wd for 5k , its a rip
If you really want to ball out, you can get the FP700 package from Ford Performance installed at the dealer. 700 horsepower for 50-60k is nuts! My buddy has one and it’s an absolute rocket lol
Wow bud! I like your attitude. Need more XL simple in this world. Very cool of ford to set that combo up. I have a 2019 xl with hdppackage and whipple for 775hp at flywheel.
Better hope you don't pop your motor. My 22 f150 with the 5.0 has been at the dealer since May 5th waiting on a new engine due to oil pump failure. They have no clue when the motor will be coming since it's on backorder so here I am paying for something I can't use. Built Ford tough 💪 that's a joke.
Hope your F150 is back in service by now. The “sleeper” truck enthusiasts with supercharged 5.0’s all upgrade their oil pump gears to prevent failures like this. I don’t know why Ford changed the location of the oil pump.
I kept thinking I was gonna see a truck with a standard transmission. The word standard is used a pretty good bit.
Oh sweetheart time that has passed since a manual transmission was offered in F-150 is measured in decades.
So you can’t get an xlt reg cab anymore?
So I added two options, the truck was shy of 40K... For a base Truck... YICKS But I see how this could be a very fun truck to have.
When its 5 years old and needs the plastic engine half replaced youll buy em for 29,998 with 50k miles on en
And the average person will never need 400 hp.
Is it available in the extended cab, not crew, and 6-1/2’ bed length? Still like analog gauges better than digital.
I wonder which dealer would actually sell it at that price
They will cause market crashing . RAM taking $17k off pickups
Only ford employees get MSRP unless you know someone. I might order mine.
You can find dealerships that won't add on the bucket of slop. You just have to shop around.
@@jodav3986 if your looking look Detroit area glut . Buy online . But think strike will push prices up again
Granger Ford in Iowa will order one for you for 4% UNDER invoice (yes, 4% under invoice). I ordered one last week. Sticker is $40160...my price is just under $37000.
And it will haul almost 4 bags of groceries!
I bought a used 22 rcsb xlt 5.0 373 gears 4x4. I wanted to order a 24 but couldn't get a xlt. The only this better on a 24 is led headlights which cost around 1k to buy and install. I also wanted a analog speedometer and tachometer. I had a digital dash on a subaru and hated it.
Lmao your gonna pay 2500$ if you wanna upgrade that 8 inch potato screen to the 12 inch sync 4 screen which also comes standard on the 24. It really makes no sense to pay the same price for a 23 or under model.
I’m stoked for the new mk
I have a feeling they might cut the cost on the seats. Ford's seats have no butt support in my opinion.
Hard to justify paying $45,000 plus for a base truck when only a few short years ago they were under 35K OTD
I am finding out that the 2021 and newer 5.0s come with a wet oil pump belt and cylinder deactivation. That wet belt design is awful and has been known to grenade engines, especially in the 1.0 ecoboost. I had one and it let go after I sold it to a friend at 100k miles. Just fair warning.
Too bad they dropped the max payload package for all F-150's.
They made a few moves that push people who want higher payloads and towing up to the Super Duty line.
I get it, I've had 3/4 ton trucks for the last 30 years. I bought a max payload 150 a few years ago because it can do what I need it to. The difference is my 150 has almost double the fuel economy than my last 2500HD did. I don't like being forced back into spending twice the amount on fuel. @@TestDrivenTV
@@allanrheaume5549I agree 💯. Ford missed a big opportunity here
Nissan use to be the value leader for the base V8 option
thank you you are the only person that thinks like me and the only person to start and finish w the base model, also i thought the same thing add a supercharger for about 8k and bammm 700hp cna't go wrong
Base models are the best. I can’t stand all the electronic stuff, sunroofs, electric running boards and extra options, all heavily marked up. It’s just more weight and more shit to go wrong. The base xl with the 2.7, crew cab, 3.55 gears with dif and 4x4 is what I’m ordering. Vinyl floors and seats are standard. Perfect for me.
It's not "simplified." It's just two engines available like before. I actually love my '19 3.3L but that 5L is sweet.
Simplified, meaning that the available packaging and standalone options schedule is vastly reduced
Well I do not like cyl deactivation on ANY motor. It will be trouble. Any and all
The problem is the base trucks are never available. The $36000 truck you are talking will never exist in the real world
As stated in the video, and like most anything worth having right now you have to order it.
Right and stealerships at their mark-ups and add-ons. We know how this works we've seen it first hand.@@TestDrivenTV
Well you have to find a good dealership. They exist.
I want one!!!
On Fords website when you try to build a basic xl single 2wd 5.0 10. The only option it has for the differential is a 3.15.. is that accurate ??
This is a compelling truck with a 5.0....
I love it
Now this might be worth going for! $40K for a nicely-equipped basic V8 pickup truck is a bargain these days. And for those who think even this is too expensive, maybe you should examine your own poor life choices that you’ve made over the years.
Suggestion: Manual transmission option
I'm not seeing this available in canada? Can anyone confirm if they'll be here in Canada?
Thanks not new....... you've been able to get that for several years. I have a 2022 RCSB with the 5.0
But now it is standard equipment on the cheapest model ;) That's the news silly.
@@TestDrivenTV semantics, it’s always been an option so it’s not anything new.
We never said it was new sweetheart. The news story is that's now the base strip model
I sm so impressed
Yes!
Side by side option with your maverick
If you need that lowered Supercharged Regular Cab, let me know. We will be ordering them and continue to make our Lightning Bolt.
And can be yours for the low low price of just $92,000. 🥳
I just looked this up in Canada...its standard with the echo boost..with the upgrade to the 8 cylinder canadian price is 54000...the 8 cylinder is not standard its an upgrade..54000 for an XL...not interested..36 yes 54 not a chnace.
@@RichardDay-n2o my 2005 Ford Escape is still running strong in Southern Ontario 312,000 kms
What's so great about a $36k 2wd truck? Lose all the electronics & sell a basic truck with manual everything, maybe it'll be affordable!
Ford ever get that 10 spd to shift properly?
I'd like to know that myself.
The ten speed has been sorted out for a few years now. I’m a runner for a Ford dealership and have driven plenty. Very smooth operation.
Mine has not had an issue in any way.
Mine has been great!
If you could get that engine in a very simple Ranger without all the electronics, it might be inexpensive enough to be a 2nd car grocery-getter!
It’s still going to be over 40k.. I think I’d rather a lightly used mustang gt and an actual work truck instead for that price
I know the titans are on the way out but you can get a 4 door, 4x4, 5.6L V-8 400hp, for $38,000. Why buy a single cab Ford and deal with all the recall issues Ford is known to have for only $2000, you could have a 4 door truck with similar performance.
It's a good deal if you can get one!
Will the new tail gate be included. That’s my favorite new development
growssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
$37K is a bargain now. LMFAO!
it honestly should come supercharged for 42k, there is nothing in it but a tv screen, no heated seat, no sunroof, probably no leather why are we still paying more for less? buy a 10th gen and coyote swap it with a supercharger for 15-20 k maybe shoe horn a 10 speed, its a lighter truck and all for 23k lol
Oh sweetpea, are you just not aware of what new vehicles cost today?
@TestDrivenTV Modern vehicles ingeneral are wayyyyyyy overpriced for the average buyer mate.
This sweat pea can take 10-15k and outrun your 100k truck and that's buying a roller fox or S10 to slap a built 6.0 in
Henry Ford said you can have any color you want as long as it’s black 😊
That was the joke :p
And most people don't know why he chose the color black.....it was the one that dried the fastest so that production could go as quickly as possible. And that is your automotive trivia fact for today...
I'd be concerned about the 5.0's reliability now that Ford has added cylinder deactivation and "spray on" piston liners.
And of course, they're dropping their most reliable engine choice - the 3.3.
The supercharger add on from ford, drops the auto shut off and no more cylinder deactivation. Full warranty and I extended mine to 90,000 miles. All dealer installed and ford part numbers. No issues yet, a lot of fun and I get 21 mpg when I drive it normal. It’s a lot of fun when you press the pedal down though. I’m more about the smiles per gallon in the end
Muy importante!!! es todo mi amigo! :), im exited I went to see and test drive the xl 400hp v8, and that thing runs and sounds great. I ask the seller and he told me that there was no changes for the 2024. im glad i didnt get it. I will wait for the 2024 to come out. when will be the day exactly? do you guys know? thanks.
Ordering is open now.
@@TestDrivenTV thank you for the info. I will check it out. 😁👍
If only I wasn't perpetually broke.
Want that charcoal grey, is their a singcab longbed?
Did you watch the video?
The only thing is, if you build & price a 2023 xl single cab F150 and add the V8 for $2,560, you come out with a total MSRP of $36,535. $35 less than this truck you showed. So sadly, with this base model you're not cheating the system and getting a deal, you're just losing the V6 option.
#GM @GM take note, we only want the $$$ into the drivetrain and basic options! If I could get the 3.0L duramax basic everything with 4wd or awd and a manual would be awesome!
I have a great idea , let some blue collar worker guy in construction design a damn work truck
good
Too expensive, lose the fancy electronics & make a basic truck, hopefully a lower price & higher reliability.
lol........dudes trying to sugar coat a ripoff............xl f150s were $25 k a few years ago
Like..... 10 years ago. Not sure how long you have been living in the world, but prices go up and they don't stop doing that.
I'm a sucker for cheap fun basic cars/trucks but one problem though, it's a Ford! LoL😂😂😅😅😮😮😢😢🎉🎉🎉
I had a post removed because I said what's so great about a $36k 2wd truck?
No. You didn't
400hp is standard these days 😅 no longer muscle
40k for a XL...........
I would like to know how is your maverick doing?
See our Maverick playlist on our channel
I brought a brand new 23 from long MacArthur Ford with the supercharger on it, they not telling you that the truck will only run 105 mph if you remove or tamper with the tune you void the 3-year 36,000 mile warranty. When you get the truck with the supercharger on it you no longer have the powertrain warranty. Not for sure about the Ford performance one that Ford is making from the manufacturer or will it run over 105. It does have 700 horses at 6800 RPMs but you can't go past 105. To put 700 horses on a vehicle that you can't use, is very misleading and it makes no sense.
It's probably also about safety. The truck with a short wheelbase and a really light rear end not not be going over 105. #darwin
Will it come with a Limited Sleep Diversion system?
What?
@@63Imp283
Does it come with a differential system like the GMC Sierra (LSD)?
Let me know when you get that under 60.000
It's what BMW does with a lot of their cars. Limit the model to a few packages, most everything else is standard.
Base models with a TV in the dash no roll up windows etc etc. Yeah no thanks.
Gas $5 a gallon no thanks
