  • After a complete review of the current generation, Raptor and King Ranch, the time has come for something with more cylinders. We discuss the good and bad of the Ford and talk about the truck competition from Toyota, Chevy and RAM. There is no question the F150 is one of the best on the market but which would you choose?

    The twerking segment, I feel, is the cornerstone of most of your reviews. You need to put more emphasis on it. See, the choreography was spot on, power to the rear and all that... but it was way too short. I get that it was a quick review, although I hope you can allocate more filming time to that segment in future videos. Also, surely there was enough space in that bed for Scott to participate. Feels like a missed opportunity. Great review nonetheless.

    Enjoy your useful videos. And as others have mentioned: I enjoy the camaraderie and dual critiques by you and Turbowski. I drive a 1992 F250 extended cab conversion from the factory to a dually, 1.25 ton rear axle, 4x4 with a 460. 10 to 11 miles to the gallon, but it does everything but tow more than about 10,000 lbs. Lots of diesels do much more, etc. etc. However, it was bought for $7250 in 2005 with 89,000 miles on it and the original front brake pads. I've towed a 26 ft. trailer to Arizona and back, carry gravel loads, cords of firewood and know it doesn't cost very much to fix. In 2011, I had a quitting problem with engine while driving or idling. So I replaced the starter, battery cables, starter solenoid, alternator for about $600 using Napa warranty level parts and Ford OEM cables. In 2016, air conditioner replacement with my mechanic was only $700+. Water pump, fan clutch, all hoses, thermostat, radiator cap were $725 approx earlier this summer by my mechanic. Engine replacement if it happens is only about $5000 with a warrantied national block. I can't afford to buy a newer truck for cost. This one is cheap cheap to fix and easy. My wife has her Toyota Rav4. Now I am looking for a used Mercedes or Porsche suv that I can burn up on the road for few years and dump later. Of course, I am an old fart. Keep up the wonderful videos, lots of fun.

Not a lot of people would cross shop them, obviously they don't compete but for your money you get better and bigger 2nd row seats, wider bed and better towing capacity.

      The 10-Speed is better for towing above all else. If you're towing near the max up a hill/mountain and have your foot planted to maintain speed the 10-Speed's extra gears will keep the engine right in the thick of its powerband so you can maintain a reasonable speed.

    Savage - Have you looked at the body style range and trim levels aswell as engine availability for each body style?
    Reg Cab 6ft bed 4x4 XLT 5.0 10 speed = 4517lb curb weight
    Crew Cab 6ft bed 4x4 platinum 5.0 10 speed = 5100lb curb weight
    Reg cab 8ft bed 4x4 XLT 3.5 ecoboost 10 speed = 4610lb curb weight
    2018 Raptor = 5525 pounds
    2005 Dodge Ram SRT-10 reg cab short bed 2wd 6 speed manual, 5250lbs 0-60 in 4.9 seconds (car&driver measurement method) 500hp
    top speed 154mph which makes it to this day the fastest ever pick up truck. Pretty sure the first reg cab configuration i just listed and maybe also even the other one with the 3.5 ecoboost would get a faster 0-60 lol. Can't believe nobody has sought fit to test those models, especially considering reg cabs always deliver the peak towing payload numbers and come closest to delivering the ideal truck experience and deliver the best value proposition by far. You can get every truly desirable feature on XLT trim, nothing you don't need though like panoramic sunroof or massaging seats. You get all the safety gear, cameras, Sync 3 and even premium sound, Fx4 package all the stuff you really want can be had in XLT reg cab trim and you can't even go over 50k with everything added. I just don't want ford to get rid of the bodystyle.
    Just saying maybe you wanna test 1 if you get the chance? i think it'd be a great presentation and would firmly deliver on numbers for those skeptics.

    Have a 2016 F-150 KR and a lot of the fit issues you mentioned (steering wheel controls, SYNC delay) are issues that are not present in my version. I think it would be reasonable for you to state that this truck is a tester/press vehicle in the very beginning, and not "un-intentionally" mislead people to the quality of the vehicle. Testers/press vehicles really don't get much love, which is why I say this. I've put over 50,000 miles on my King Ranch and it has held up tremendously. Despite being two years older, some of the issues you presented don't seem accurate to my observation in my truck and several friends that also own the 15-18 model year F150.

    I bought a Tundra new in 2016, I liked the Ford but in doing further research, the bang for the buck was just through the roof on the Tundra whereas with the F150 it felt like I would have to spend about $10k more to get the same features and then it would depreciate more quickly than the Tundra. I sold the Tundra for about $1500 less than I bought it for after owning it for one year and 9500 miles. I completely agree with you on the F150 vs the Tundra. I hope Toyota updates the Tundra in the next few years, then it would be really hard to beat. Great video!

    • @97I30T
      @97I30T 6 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      Benefactor The biggest difference between the Tundra and F-150 when you buy them new is that you can easily get $10-15k off of the sticker price on an F-150. Toyota is notoriously stingy with discounts so you end up paying about the same or even less for a comparable F-150 when everything is all said and done. The real question for people is do they want a truck that's two generations behind the competition but more reliable and has better resale value or do they want a truck that is more refined and has better technology and creature comforts?

    • @ashishpatel350
      @ashishpatel350 6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      The reason tundra holds its value is becuase Toyota doesn't change it much. If they did they would depreciate quick.

    • @benefactor2931
      @benefactor2931 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah I know the F150 does go on sale which would make it more even but when I needed to buy there were no sales. I am a big fan of both. I owned a 97 F150 and it was an amazing vehicle and extremely reliable.

    • @benefactor2931
      @benefactor2931 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      I agree to an extent, the older versions of Tundras and Tacos still hold their value extremely well though. I think that Toyota is such a global brand that it is not worth the investment to keep the Tundra super competitive with the F150.

    • @benefactor2931
      @benefactor2931 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      No, keeping the older version the same as the new version slows the depreciation. With frequent updates the older model depreciates more quickly because people want the new version, but if they are similar people will pay similar prices.

Its smooth, quiet, just bursting with power when you need it strong...sorry but the EB is a better choice than the Coyote. Even modifying it...Boost Max makes a tuning kit for the EB engines in trucks. $450 buys you 80HP and over 100 Lb.Ft. of torque...try that for that price in a V8!
