    Hey is Isaac, just have some quick thoughts and questions reguarding the video and future content. Will you be doing only electrical vehicles from now due to Biden signing the new green deal? Also are you aware that the reflective platinum tailgate causes 1 of the 1,000,000 annual badger deaths a year due to its highly reflective nature blinding the animal while it crosses the street. Lastly do you think that Ford will integrate Amazon Alexa into the side mirrors. I think it would be handy to have an Alexa in the mirror to give Ford that edge they need to beat GMC trucks since they copied their lighting.

    In this age of pop top cans Ford gives you a bottle opener. How retro of them. I see the rear tail lights is almost a direct copy of the 2011-2014 F150. Thanks for a great review Isaac !!

    • @AlphaShark

      Yes, those rear taillights are strikingly similar! Makes me think this is more of an evolutionary design rather than a revolutionary new design.

      Autobody tech here. AKA someone who is literally paid to notice every little minor detail.
      I used to be confused as to why Ford basically recycled the 12th-gen taillights, but then I figured out why they did it. When you look at the truck from the side-view the triangular shape of the taillights and headlights are symmetrical, just like they are on the 13th-gen trucks albeit in a different shape. I'm guessing Ford designed the headlights first and then, keeping the theme from the 13th-gen, made the taillights to match. The fact that they looked just like the 12th-gen taillights was an unintended coincidence.
      That's my best guess.

      Well speaking for myself, I am 59, worked hard all my life. My (new) house and property are paid for and owe nothing on cards. I wanted a vehicle that I wanted, no compromises and plan on keeping it for 10-15 years. It will be paid off before retirement and by that time I will have everything paid for and all will be newer so I don’t expect large maintenance costs. So yea I spoiled my self with the hybrid limited but I can so why not? Just a note to you younger guys and gals, older people have worked hard and long to get where they are your time will come, I would trade your youth for my truck any time! Lol

      Lol it’s tough for you to say that if you haven’t actually spent time with both. I have and if you are comparing apples to apples, top of the line with both trucks, they are both great as far as materials used so it comes down to preference. I find the seats far more comfortable over a long drive in the Ford, add massage that ram doesent have and the 7.2kw pro power on board (power my Rv) and the better towing features and better gas mileage when not towing (hybrid) for me, and a much better history of reliability than Ram, Ford was the clear winner. Now if your a Ram fan boy just trolling, ok I understand, The high end Ram has a great interior as well and as they say, different strokes for different folks.

I personally think Ford might just inch out the Ram in some aspects. I do think the Ram's 12" inch screen is top of the line, but this F-150 one is really really nice too. And I love the foldable center console, I'd use that a ton. I think Ram is lightyears above GMC and Chevy, but Ford is giving it a run for it's money for sure.
