Best truck available i believe! Real full- hybrid. Ford truck durability. Tech & features unmatched by any others! Tempted to order this truck & trade in my '19 Ford truck.
That’s more affordable than I was expecting!
lol @ “super easy and barely an inconvenience” - love the studio pitch guy
You can set a tolerance over the posted speed signs in the adaptive cruise control in the Sync 4 settings
"and barely an inconvenience", I got that!!
This truck is not about what you need, it is about what you want. Very nice truck, I want one.
Amazing truck! Full- hybrid tech . Onboard generator. Has it all. Ford truck proven durability. Best of best!
I agree with you but I'm running into reports of folks having quality control and other issues with this truck concerning software glitches, bad modules and fit and trim. What do you think? I tend to give these kinds of new vehicle iterations a couple years but I really don't want to wait.
@@SirtubalotTX Yes I agree. When shopping for an F150 my sales person told me to stay away from the Hybrid for now. He drove one himself and sent me screenshots of his that broke down and other customers he had sold a hybrid too. I ended up going with the 5.0 Lariat.
@@marlostanfield8763 Thanks for the info, not giving up on the F150 Hybrid but might wait awhile. Also like the Lightning but don't want to participate in the waiting game and the time it might take to get one.
Market is stupidly warped right now but thankfully,, I'm blessed and don't have to play by its rules. I might even jump on a 5.0, we'll see.
Too expensive imo.
26:18 top of chat baby 😀
I just stumbled across your channel and it dawned on me that we crossed paths while you were filming this. I found it unusual at the time seeing such a nice, new truck out on those roads but it all makes sense now. It's great to see local scenery in these reviews, excellent work!
Seeing the shifter fold down blew my mind. Throw a mattress in the bed and you can basically live out of that truck.
That camera is amazing! Increases the overall quality of the video, which is great
2:08 Actually, the PowerBoost’s engine is a 3.5 Liter twin turbo V6 with a hybrid system.
Yes, we have the wrong digit. All the rest is correct.
I drive a 2018 STX supercrew 4x4. The STX isn't the nicest truck ford makes, but it is the nicest one I can afford to pay for. The tech Ford is putting in these modern F150's is insane. To add perspective to my post, I drove a 2006 XLT for 15 years. Imagine my surprise when they showed all the cool stuff in a 2018 model truck. I edit my videos on a supped up thread ripper powered editing rig and my truck has more usb ports (LOL) This is a great time to be a truck owner.
I like your reviews, great work!
I'm officially addictec to you channel!
Coolest mode animations I have ever seen!
Living the dream !!
I was waiting for the full-recline seats!
Thanks…great review!
This is everything
Excellent video
Awesome video
Another great video! Any chance that you'll be reviewing the new 2022 Hyundai Tuscon?
That is one sweet truck.
Great video, great truck.
Thanks 👍
Enjoyed watching, although I’ve been following Ford F-150 for awhile due to the hybrid integration. I believe Ford’s utility and ergonomic cabin design hits all the consumer points of interest and ease of use. The tech is savvy and forward. I’m looking at the Limited Powerboost Hybrid. Of course the 2021 Raptor 37 negates all modifications needed for a regular F-150. 😂 … Drive safe! #Ford, #F150, #FordHybrid
I’d like to see more full size trucks being tested on your new course!
I have the 2021 Lariat, it’s a very nice to drive powerful truck.
I head north nearly every weekend for a 3 1/2 hrs drive.
I plan to buy the Platinum version soon.
Batteling with 3.5 Turbo or 3.5 Fuel/Electric.
You should note that almost zero F150 have over 3000 lbs of payload... Only the regular cab with special payload package in its XL trim does... Almost all of the F150 you see on the road (Crew Cab XLT or LARIAT) have between 1300 and 1800 pounds of payload available.
It’s a half ton truck 🤔 1 ton is 2000 lbs
Half is 1000lbs! What’s wrong with that?
Mine has 1832 to be exact lol
could have had better MPG in Eco mode. Turns out the cloth seat headrest is comfortable. So I bought a PowerBoost XLT for 54k, and really enjoying it, even without the massaging seats and Blue Cruise. I do like that the XLT has a nice-sized openb box where a floor shifter would have been; the box is great for napkins and fast food. Since I am liking this truck, so much, I figure I will flip it for a Lightning in the next year, which I will like even more probably. Thanks for the good review, and I liked the camera review/ad, too.
Check the mpg in the Silverado with the duramax. Or the Tahoe.
I want to know what kind of flame accelerant They use on these new trucks.
this is my very fav truck IF not needing for heavy-duty construction or ranch work.
Why
i'd never get the panoramic roof, it's too hot for all that sun in the south
Can you test the 2022 Outback Wilderness on this road, please?
Kia Nero hybrid switches to its gasoline engine only (no electric motor) when using cruise control. What does the Ford do? Does it use is electric motor when on cruise control?
13:04 he really put Tesla people in their place 😂
doubt it, maybe just those who drive them to gas pumps
@@tallll70 Tesla is not yet self-autonomous car. It needs your attention and to keep hands on the wheel by its timer. so Yes. He's right.
@@MethmalDhananjaya absolutely, i agree, we gonna have driving assists only for much longer... they doing progress, but it's easy to see how faulty it still is
Haha...eighty miles per hour isn't going to deliver anywhere near the 24 mpg ratings; you need to drive 55 to get that kind of mileage. At 80, you are running in the boost mode of the 3.5 liter V6 and almost no electric assist. Great demonstration of the truck's capability. I'd love to drive that trail in my F-150 FX4.
You played too much with levels in post production in the trench part of the video (under the truck), or that's the way light looked like in that angle?! Anyway cool videos, keep it up man! :)
everything in this vehicle i want in the new ranger
Love every video! Under 50K best all around vehicle in your opinion? Touring the country vehicle with no trailer.
Thanks! Outback Onyx is still my current pick. I drove it thousands of miles and it was great. But it’s close with Passport and others in the class.
kinda wanna hear about that bad park assist experience
Can you review the Ford Expedition max please?
It's 240 30A generator, it will not power your entire house, but part of it yes...This model has 120V 20A... Either way, it's still the best out of all manufactures electric output
can you do the new ford stx 2021
Should have mentioned that those dividers under the seatcan be a locked compartment withe the seat down and locked with the actual key
23:25 man you had the perfect opportunity to test the locker in two-wheel drive I so want to see somebody use a locker in two-wheel drive I mean that is what they're for get stuck click your locker get out that don't work then you use four-wheel drive
SUPER👍👌AUTO!!!✌️😎
Cam not available in India 🇮🇳? 🙁
What was the actual payload on the door jamb sticker for your truck? The numbers you quote are most likely not the same as the test truck.
The number we quoted was off the Ford payload grid for this configuration.
@Driving Sports TV is the payload of 2k for that exact truck?
When you say "Washington overland trail" are you talking about the Washington back country discovery route?
Yes. Or Derr/Durr road.
@@drivingsports thanks!
Yeah all you need for the articulation is a rear locker
Really interested how the diesel would perform in this latest generation F-150?
Both amazing trucks pick what u like can't go wrong!
mind blowing gaz mileage
Imaging running massive subwoofers with all that power lol
I hope that driver’s headrest can be tilted back, or I wouldn’t even bother getting in the truck. I plain hate the chiropractor-income head rests. Other than that, Ford does make a great interior. Although I like RAM shifting via knob instead of floor-wasting gear shifter
Wished it wasn't leaf spring
Cool! I usually throw insults to vehicle prices but this one I can Say that if I had the money...I'd definitely consider. But at the moment, I'm waiting to see what Ram comes out with for hybrids, etc..
Does the seats turn into a bed on the hybrid model???🤔🤔🤔🤔
It’s available on king ranch, platinum, and limited no matter what engine type.. including the powerboost hybrid engine
using the onboard generator's 2.4 kw capacity from its 1.5 kwh battery will last how long?
Ford's site says 85 hours.
Dang, wish it was the 5.0 version :(
Considering that auto start stop was on and the truck had to start up before doing the 0-60. 5.8 seconds is nuts. That truck has no right being that fast😂 it’s crazy
3.5l V6, not a 3.6l :o)
Kind of strange that they didn't put the effexxwhore package on the tester truck
find out now! you mean by watching the video that i'm already watching...
Is there a mode where I can just get 4-high? Typical slip-based AWD systems fall apart on a beach for example.
Did you find any rust under that thing
We included several under body shots. What did you see?
Those tires did not like what you put them through lmao those sidewalls weren’t nearly thick enough for what you were doing lmao
Glad that I will buy a fully loaded F150 Platinum Hybrid anyway.
Really great review specially that you took it in to off road trail! Only thing I don’t like how you pointed a few times on a rear axles structure: “….not a most pleasant….” - 1th of all this review about the “truck”, and it was made for towing - we buying ford because it does a great job with rear end control and minimum under load squatting - safety 1th, suspension durability and comfort somewhere at the end!!! Even the welcome logo on the screen says “Ford built tough” not “comfort”)))
I can almost hear some old man from like alabama or west virginia yelling "now I ain't gonna drive no hippie hybrid pick up truck get off my lawn"
I’m from AL I don’t hear people talk like that at all. As a matter of fact, Huntsville, AL has the largest concentration of PhD’s in the country. Now you know.
HEY !
3.5L twin turbo V6. Not a 3.6 naturally aspirated.
I was pretty sure the Powerboost came with the 3.5 ecoboost. Not a 3.6litre..
Yes. We got the number wrong.
@@drivingsports its all good thanks.
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👍🏾
Where are these 'wifi' towers in Ellensburg?
WiFi on the truck connected via LTE to the cell towers. Voila.
@@drivingsports where are the towers?
Imagine this truck with a V6 diesel
Might be a little much to start and stop a diesel all the time
I want
Hi, what's name of the trail and which mountain is this?
Old Durr Road in Cle Elum.
@@drivingsports thank you sir~
10:17 as a reviewer you should be reviewing it again maybe they made changes to make it better
7.2 kilowatts on wheels , now we are talking !
If I had 75k sitting around to buy a vehicle, I would buy this!
Could get something much nicer for 75k
@@victorlabadia881 there is nothing nicer than this in pickup truck segment , now don't say buy garage toy ota becuase resale and overrated reliabilty
@@hotrod7603 1. The RAM interior is absolutely on par with this. 2. There is nothing overrated about Toyota resale and reliability. Resale is crazy. In fact, my local dealership wants to pay me more for my truck than I paid for it - and that's not to get me into a new one either. Reliability? Stats (from multiple sources) back it up. Million-mile Tundras? Not even newsworthy anymore.
@@PaulSter I'd even say the Ram interior is better than this, based off of sitting in both and how they feel. I just like Ram's interior better. It could be subjective though.
@@deviantarsenal you're right and I absolutely agree. I've actually said that previously in other threads. Not sure what I was thinking when I posted 'on par'. 🤔
But, now that we've seen the top trim levels of the 2022 Tundra, there could be a new champ?
They're all about 'leap-frigging' each other nowadays. I'm just glad that Chevy finally made some improvements to the infamous "sea of black" look.
Times are great for buyers in the half-ton segment, and while they are brutally expensive (at the top end) nowadays, you're getting - interior quality, payload, towing, gas mileage, and creature comforts way ahead of trucks 15+ yrs ago.
Ford is the best American car brand!
Just like phones, hybrids work best when the batteries are still fresh. What is the resale value of a hybrid truck in 5-7 years (average loan term) when the batteries are only pushing out 60% power? Two years later it's due for a (very expensive) pack replacement. I'm a fan of hybrid tech but most people are not cost averaging the long term value of batteries.
It’s more like 60% after 10 yrs
👍🤘💜💙
How can you complain about the ride and rear suspension in this truck but own a 4runner?
3.5*
Wow!! $72k
My Brother just got delivery of his the other day and I brought him to pick it up. For a $70k truck they are definitely nice trucks to be in but being a Toyota guy, everything in that Ford still felt kinda cheaply slapped together and still felt like I was riding in my grandmothers 2000 Taurus wagon. But when you floor it man don't it move.
Say what, the Foed interior is much nicer than any Tacoma/Tundra interior. I think your confused and have it backwards. The toyota interior is a joke and is plasticky. I think you just be joking lol
That power folding shifter is f-ing dumb. Why not just do what they did for the super duty? Use a simple column shifter.
The engine is not a 3.6l. It’s a twin turbo 3.5l
Yes, that’s an error that slipped though. HP is correct though.
comes with a 3.5 liter V6 not a 3.6
Off road “Driving Modes” are marketing gimmicks. If, as a potential buyer of an off-road capable vehicle, you do not know how basic 4WD (not all-wheel drive) systems work, educate yourself before you buy. Also, there is nothing inherently wrong with leaf-sprung, solid rear axels. In fact, they are less expensive, more durable and offer greater true off-road articulation. Certainly if you are concerned about sports-car like handling, IRS is more suitable. But for hauling, towing, and off-road work, the rear suspension systems on F-150, 250, 350 etc (Same for GM, RAM, Toyota and Nissan trucks with the exception of some coil sprung axels) AND the author’s own 4Runner are proven, reliable and durable. True that they do ride more harshly, but put a load on them and the ride smooths right out. That is a design consideration. Do you want them to ride better at the expense of load and trailering capability? Otherwise, this is a great review of a potentially market changing product. Kudos to Ford, and hey Toyota, you may have missed the boat with the new Tundra.
its a 3.5L twin turbo not a 3.6L naturally asperated
Not sure how that got in there. Yes, should have said the 3.5. At least we got the HP right. 🥳 (human error happens even on huge shows, let alone small operations like ours.)
Lol were you listening to Tool?
I love how a product you pay for plays a shitty little gif of a commercial on the screen every time you start it.
Toyota…..see all these cool features you can add to the tundra?? Not all of them but some that it desperately needs
Oh, they're quite aware.
Keep it for the warranty then get rid of it.
Definitely dump it fast - and lease it!
14:14 65.82 seconds doesn’t sound fast on a 0-60
Why do auto review channels use CAR to describe every thing with 4 wheels?
this is a amazing truck. the only stupid thing is the gear selector. why don't ford just use button? the driver has to wait all the way down and up and also may increase failure rate
A lot of potential truck buyers hate buttons.
@@drivingsports what about Column Shift? Also can save more space.
@@drivingsports I'm one of those 🙋🏾
72K LOL no way
Still the best selling no one cares about your opinion keyboard warrior
@@hotrod7603 yea best selling. but not at 72k each. duh.
@@Mike-Minion but still it's F150 it's a brand in its own lol
