I turned my 2011 Mustang over to my son and got a 2018 Super Crew XLT 2.7 with chrome package and 302A package with navigation. Yes Matt, parking definitely more challenging than the Mustang! But, did a 2200 mile trip and this thing is so comfortable. Most comfortable vehicle I've ever owned. FYI I did get 26 mpg on the highway and now get 21.5 in town. Thanks!
T Sav 26 mpg with a 26 Gal Tank? NICE!
T Sav is that 2x4 or 4x4?
Ive got the same, but with the 3.5l ecoboost, and no nav. Best vehicle ive ever owned. I dont mind having a more traditional radio rather than an infotainment system. I used to own a fully loaded 2016 fusion.... the infotainment system could be awful at times. The chrome on the 2018 xlts is actually nice. Its not too much like the lariats. I love the minor chrome trim on the interior. It looks so good on the vents and the stripes on the door. This is my 6th vehicle, dont see myself getting rid of it unless i find a 2018 xlt in the same color but with the 5.0.
I bought the 2018 F-150 Supercrew 2.7L and I pull a 5000 lb Keystone Bullet 24' Camper. Truck pulls with no problem at all. It is perfect for what I use it for.
Not crazy about the new headlights, but now the lil 2.7 Ecoboost has more torque and a 10 soeed transmission. I laugh at some of the comments I see below about how bad they think these engine are. All I can say is go drive it, their quiet, smooth and very fast! Apparently a lot of folks are being impressed by the 2.7 because it’s now the F150’s best selling engine. Matt have no idea why yours did so bad on MPGs because I constantly get 20.4 in town, calculator checked and I cut the stupid stop start thing off. I’m starting to see Ecoboost engines at around 200,000 miles on them and they are running great, maybe not the engine for everyone, but so far I love mine!
Poppy Neese they sell great because they are rhe next engine up from the NA v6 so its what dealers order
Doug the type of guy to put 2 gallons of milk in his center console
Oops wrong channel
Isaiah Martinez lmaoo
Keep up the great work Matt love the videos u make
I'm a GM guy who happens to work at a Ford dealership. I've driven so many F-series trucks over the past year for extended periods of time - every light duty and super duty configuration - as well as several GM, Toyota, and Ram trucks, and I am seriously impressed with this F-150 and it's EcoBoost V6 engines, they are top notch. This 2.7L is very quick and to me feels better than the 5.3L V8 in the Silverados I drove. Also the 3.5L EcoBoost feels quicker than the 6.2L V8 in the Sierra Denali that I drove (although that V8 sounds MUCH better than the EcoBoost and the power delivery is more linear, which is why I generally prefer N/A or superchargers over turbos). The 5.0L in the F-150 is nice too, great power and sound. Despite everything though, if I was buying an F-150 my choice would be the 3.5L EcoBoost. The power you get from that engine is just bonkers and I love it. Still, I do like how the Silverado/Sierra drive better than the F-150. The GM trucks feel tighter and better planted, almost like unibodies; the F-150, despite feeling lighter thanks to the aluminum, still jiggles and bounces more than the GM trucks do. The Ford and GM trucks to me are leaps and bounds better than the Tundra and Ram, everything from engines to interiors to driving dynamics, though I haven't been behind the wheel of the newly redesigned Ram yet. Great review Matt, loved hearing your take on this!
Good input 👌
Cool review Matt
Love the lines with crew cab! Black looks great. We know Ford makes best trucks so ifi choose a pick up over SUV it's straight to Ford store.
Yep 26 mpg cleveland to Niagara back to cleveland i love this truck
I have a 2016 XLT Sport Edition 3.5L EcoBoost, no issues driving 14-16hr long trips like I did with the RAV4, and the storage is awesome! The only thing that sucks to me is the headlights as they don't throw enough light out has they are smoke tinted from factory.
Hey man I love watching your youtube videos next time can you please do your new bullitt review.
COOL Review: 2018 Ford F-150 Lariat SuperCrew 2.7L
That moment at 12:47 when Matt reliezes there's a cop there XD
I agree with you. It is terrible having the auto start/stop feature !! Just think how many you are using the starter. Probably have to buy another starter in a few years. I would definitely disable permanent !!
The 10 speed was introduced in 2017 model F150's.
Matt, will you be reviewing the tenth gen civic hatch sport?
Love my 3.5 ecoboost
10 speed I drove didn't have the issues yours did, wondering if with 16,000 miles yours has just been beat on by press members and may have some issues. I also kept my foot out of it and was able to get about 22.5 MPG over a month of driving it.
Very curious to see how this engine will compare to the upcoming 2.7 displacement 4 cylinder from Chevy
I think that engine is the fastest 0-60 in the F-150
engine lineup.
I love my dad's 2018 F150. The only thing I don't like is he's a guy that HAS to have chrome. So he's got chrome everything on that truck. If I needed a truck, the Sport trim would definitely be my choice.
Rekt tC I’m with you. I had to buy a family car a few years back and got a fusion titanium. Had to get rid of all the chrome it came with.
I have to have all my trim either paint matched or dark-grey/black. I'm really glad manufacturers are offering all their trucks with painted trim. To some people chrome = luxury. To me, chrome = cheap flaky plastic. But hey, we all have our tastes haha.
Ya Matt sure loves fake chrome, so much so he's got it on the front of his new Bullet.
TurboDieselDan the Bullitt comes with chrome in the front from the factory.
I agree Matt the truck needs chrome.
I just bought one of these but in a 5.0!
I want to buy 2.7 with those rims in the sport package.
You said that the bed doesn’t have steps but from what I can remember. There is a step built into the top of the tailgate that you pull out if you want to step in the bed, I didn’t hear you mention that.
Bryce Minor not all trucks get that, only some do
Hey Matt!! U don't go the cars and coffee anymore??
Trucks will never look as cool and work as hard as the old ones.
J.C Boston I'm mean, no and no. Modern fseries destroy the old ones in capability and the raptor is one if the most badass looking offroaders ever made.
Puff the Magic Dragon raptor is overrated lol. Trucks built now are just sad
Do the regular cab 5.0 f150 please
I've got the STX package and the 2.7 eco boost. And when applying the brakes to stop it feels.likenthe transmission holds the gears for too long and it contributes to a push feeling even as you apply the brakes.
My transmissions was alittle jerky in the beginning but i continued to baby it in sport mode for the first 1k miles, and it is buttery smooth now. 😎
I don't really like when people say dock trucks for being big and difficult to park, yes they are when you go from a car to a truck but once you drive it for about a week or two at most you will be whipping that thing into parking spots like a mini cooper and when you get back into a regular car you feel like you are driving a go cart.
Matt. Please i need information Ford F150. ( Black Ops ) v8. 2018
I like the No chrome
These trucks are fast my friend has one and he was able to beat a GTI at drag strip was hilarious
B&O is bang and olufson for everyone wondering
I test drove one of these a few months ago and it smelled really bad in there. I think the salesman ripped a fat fart in there before dropping it off to me.
HUGE JACKMAN hahaha WTF 😂
Yeah, not very professional of him.
Lol!!!!!!!!!!
HUGE JACKEDMAN whats that got to do with the best truck u can buy in USA. All American!!
David Klimmek salesman farts are not a popular option on trucks?
whats the fatsest ford f-150 lariat 4x4 supercrew engine? 2.7l ecoboost v6? 3.5l ecoboost turbcharged v6? or the v8?
Motorweek tested the 2.7L Supercrew 4x4 at 5.7 second 0-60, which is faster than both the 3.5L and 5.0L.
gpage oh ok thanks
Here is the video: th-cam.com/video/RejVcFs_EEg/w-d-xo.html
Is that your ford key in your pocket or are you just happy to see me :P
LMAOOO
Recently got the V8 F150 and in city I'm getting 20mpg right on.
Great - I'm getting 23 city and up to 30 hwy with the 2.7EB.
No, you are not getting 20 in the city unless your city is called I-10 with a speed limit of 50 mph and then you would be one of the lucky ones.
You have never done a king ranch review 😩
Ecoboost engines take a few oil changes to break-in,.... literally. You want start averaging 20 mpg total at all until you exceed 3000 miles. Talk to a few ecoboost owners and they will tell you that the turbos unfortunately do this truck no justice when it come to EPA in the beginning.
Lol getting this same exact truck tomorrow
Ford #1
Have an XLT with the 302a (2018) and the 5.0l motor - my "lifetime" average (never been reset) and have about 3100 miles on it is 20.3MPG No doubt that the 2.7l TT is a decent motor but when will people figure out that just because it has smaller displacement it won't necessarily get better MPG - the turbos just plain negate better fuel economy....
Scott Warmbier what? The 2.7 has better gas economy than the 5.0 and it can definitely haul, 9000 lbs to be exact, that more than some older 5.0s
In 10 or 15 years when it comes to the used market these Ecoboosts are gonna be either good or bad. Not because the quality of engineering but many people that own trucks negate maintainince which will effect the Ecoboost in the long run. I imagine that it will require specific mantainnce over its lifetime that if looked over and ignored could cause more issues once its older.
I have 18 with 2.7 average 25 mpg every tank I've had 10 speed trans does the trick
@@Carsaremydrug I'm getting shit fuel mileage in my 2018 2.7 eco. I'm averaging 16.7mpg. I've got 2313 miles on it.
@@sydneywooton7456 dammm idk why
The two bar grill just bugs me for some reason, it sticks out too much
Mr. Well I prefer the previous headlights and grille. The 2018 just don't look as good.
I’m a Ford guy through and through, but I personally prefer the look of the new Ram 1500, the side profile of the F-150 is starting to look a little dated, it’s a bit flat, square and basic. The front and interior are top notch, but the sides and rear needs to be updated.
The new Ram just looks more modern and fresh, the side profile is beefy and chunky but also has nice smooth, fresh and flowing modern lines.
Both trucks are awesome, I really like the front of the F-150, but the rest of it needs to be refreshed. I think at the current moment the Ram is a nicer looking complete package.
nice truck and if someone wants a truck to just have a truck, 2.7TT would be the choice. If ya actually want a truck to work, get the 3.5TT or 5.0 or get a bigger truck...
You failed to mention all of fords recalls this year on the f150
Yup he did forgot...lol
Review the Chevy Trailblazer SS
I actually prefer hard button in a truck, straight to the task, one step to do things, not a hugh touch screen in the ram like tesla with extra steps.
The 2.7 engine is faster than 5.0 and 3.5 to 60 and 1/4 mile
It’s a great looking truck, but how reliable is it going to be? Can I put over 200,000 miles on this with minimal fixes (the small stuff). That’s my biggest concern about some of these Ford vehicles
IJBCI don't know about the new eco boost engines but my mom has an 05 F150 with just over 400k miles of harsh ass driving in Montana... Virtually no issues that I can remember ever coming up
Just follow the maintenance schedule.
A true truck as a v8 period
No point buying a Lightning or other performance truck when these new gen engines/ transmissions are quick AF. Stock 2018 5.0's are running 13.2, 12.2 with a tune and 11.4 with a supercharger.
Nice truck but the aluminum panels don't always serve a heavy duty pick-up well, they don't take a collision well in terms of repairability and require a certified repair shop to fix them per Ford guide lines.
As a 2.7 owner, I must say that I had a engine failure at 36000 miles, necessitating a crate engine replacement. Now I’m scared shitless to go on another long road trip. Do not buy a eco boost without an extended warranty.
A kind of wished Ford would allow the purchaser of their trucks to acquire the sports "package" in the exterior color "they" the buyer wants! It would add a bit of individuality to/for the buyers! I'd much rather have the option of a monochromatic look in colors other than black!
Edysin Simon he you are saying having two colors on the sport package than, they can't do that because the trucks would sit on the lot forever til someone that likes that specific truck to come but, the trucks already have way too many options
I guess I'd just have to order it my way then...Which is generally what I do anyway since I don't care to pay for options'I" don't need/want.
Order the tail gate step FFS !
$59,000? That's freaking insane!!! Talk about depreciating assets... buy a used one.. crazy...
Hector Estrada 60k 4 banger truck? Repeat that outloud
convex it's a v6 you idiot.
The F150 along with all the other expensive trucks have high-resale value, much better than any other segment. The used prices aren't much cheaper, that's why people buy them new with a lot of incentives on the hood. There is probably no other $60,000 vehicles on the road that hold resale better than this expensive trucks.
On top of the fact that trucks keep their value incredibly well, with very few exceptions, nobody would ever pay even remotely near MSRP for these things. Our local Ford dealer, for example, will gladly give you $8,000+ off up front with incentives and other discounts available on top of that.
Agree, and whats more aggravating is that pickups are cheaper to manufacture
Su-Ba-Ruh Dubya X fan here....
No intro?
Rather have a 5.0 platinum 😉
If you seriously want to deal with salespeople in my area who think they are doing you a favor by selling you a car. Go to Honda or try and buy an F150. At least that is how it is in the SE
I wonder how the longevity of these motors will be?
VEDEM RACING I know someone who has the 3.5L ecoboost since the launch (2012 i think) they haven't had problems just normal maintenance truck has 298,000 miles on it runs great
Nothing new, the 2.7 is already in its 4th year
Luis Perez That's fantastic. I think people initially misjudged ecoboost engines, because a few yrs ago, they had more issues than they do now and there weren't as many high mileage examples. Now there are 200k trouble free ebs everywhere and a relatively small amount of complaints. I think they're stellar engines for reliability.
Expected longevity doesn't mean they'll be worth it in the end.
Depends how you drive it.
Can you review the Nissan Kicks ?
I want to trade in my Mustang GT for one of these. I can't fit my family comfortably in the Mustang. Bought it when I was single and had a lot of fun but it's time to let her go. 2016 Mustang GT Performance Package with a Kenne Bell Supercharger. 😢
"THROW SOME HAMMERS BACK THERE"
I just took a nap for 24 minutes 41 seconds.
GibsonOfAGun how was your nap?
The Paradigm Shift Good I drempt about trucks that aren't boring af 😂
Plain
I personally think Ram is the best looking truck inside and outside on the market. I a Chevy or GMC man when it comes to trucks.
B&O on a truck? What’s going on?
gtb5 all Ford vehicles are getting b&o eventually, the mustang gets it in 2019
The Tundra has a lot more space and much bigger rear doors it has been the largest since it's 2nd gen redesign
Ho Lee Fok Is it? I thought the tundra in its standard form was a f-150 competitor, that's what everyone I've known has said, but Idk.
WRONG on the interior space. The F-150 is larger inside. But now the 2019 Ram is class leader for interior space.
4.2_Trailblazer_racer the F-150 shares the same cab as the Super Duty. The can is definitely bigger than the Tundra.
Trundra rear door are longer.... just saying
yeh but RAM 1500 always breaks
The little 2.7L is a beast, but MPG is a joke. It's a great example of small displacement improving MPG on paper and paper only.
It will get good mileage if you stay off boost. V8 mpg when working, but V6 mpg when cruising. You can get 26 mpg if you drive like a granny, but most people won't with all that power to play with.
gpage From personal experience, even babying it doesn't return impressive mileage. Maybe slightly better than comparable N/A V8s, but you still won't get the advertised MPG.
I have a V8 and I average 18mpg city/highway...JUST SAYING
Why does ford always cheap out when it comes to putting leather around the steering wheel if any.
ErnDawg they put leather on the steering wheel on the upper trim levels with leather seats.
Why would you want an F-150 without a V8?
Christian because your wife wants a raptor.
Because the twin-turbo V6 is faster, more powerful, and gets better mpg than the V8. V8 is a waste of money.
Ty máš teda ksicht
Great truck but the ram and Silverado look way better
more like a lariyacht
a full size PU with a dinky ENGINE yech over worked give me a loafer V8 gas mileage might not be as good but it won't be straining all the time like this
I have owned both a 2015 5.0 F150 and currently own a 2018 2.7 F150. The 2.7 is a much better engine for towing and frankly every situation. It develops all 400 lb/ft of torque at 1700 RPM. I found with my 5.0, it was constantly downshifting and revving up around 4500 RPM to maintain speed on highway while towing. It also develops 400 Lb/Ft of torque like the 2.7, but not until over 4,000 RPM. On the highway, my 2.7 loafs along at 1,700 RPM in 10th gear at 80mph. It accelerates quicker by a long shot over the 5.0, gets better gas mileage and operates at much lower RPM then the 5.0. Now with both port and direct injection, carbon build up won’t be an issue. It also has 25% less rotating parts then the V8. I was skeptical at first as well, but I’m definitely a believer now.
“ what’s up everybody it’s subaruwrx fan here, but I bought a mustang” in less than 1second
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA F150?!
Man these new keyfobs are terrible. these things weigh as much or even more than a cell phone. Who the hell wants to lug around that honking device? If keys were still avail sign me up.
I just can't get over not having a V8. Chevy for me.
Austin Murphy aaaaaaannndddd turbo 4 on the way from Chevy.....
You walked in to that one. Chevy will also release a 2.7L 5 years after this 2.7L with far less power and same mpgs.
Ford still sells trucks with their 5.0L and 6.2L V8.
TurboDieselDan actually no, ford only sells the 3.5 EcoBoost, the 3.3 EcoBoost, the 2.7 EcoBoost, and then the 5.0 V8
Austin Murphy Then buy a 5.0. V8s are good for sound, but that's about the only advantage they have only ecoboost engines.
Inside looks just like my 17 Ford F-150 work truck failed ford failed
Toofast For you I hope you're joking. First of all, it's the same generation, so no matter what you do, it's going to look similar, the second point, even for higher trim levels, they can't redesign the entire interior for a few trim models, no brand does that, because it would eat significantly into profits. They can change a few things, but not a ton.
Chew an ambien, you talk too fast.
They're great but 20K overpriced 😂😱
If u buy it at the end of the year even without the A plan u can get $17k off, maybe more. 😕👍
Get rid of auto start stop useless and you get better mpg with it off makes no sense
I've never bought a Ford ans will never buy it in my life after almost killing myself from 2018 explorer's carbon monoxide leak. Get a Korean car or a Chevy. They're much well built with fewer problems.
Interior looks so dated
The 2018 F150 looks ugly, 15-17 looked way better, do a review on the 2019 Ram 1500 the interior and exterior are higher quality and look amazing
Already reviewed the 2019 Ram a few months ago.
Ram has always made junk and used value nose dives like a airplane out of fuel. Just like for ones for sale. Best deal for a 4x4 Crew Cab is Ram. Why because their garbage. A friend of mine bought a brand new 12 miles Ram 4x4 Crew. I looked at it and told him his driveline was entirely covered with rust. In the shop more then his driveway. He kept it 6 months. Lost his arm on it but cut his loses before he lost more.
2.7 liter???? Whaaaaat????? God damnit ford
Robert Robb what’s wrong with that?
iDrive4fun93 most truck guys want a truck with a high displacement (5.7L) v8
@Tej Singh that's so douchey
I'll stick to my 2011 5.0 F150 🤷🤷
To all the people that have a problem with what I said... there is no replacement for displacement.
Ram best
Rams hahaha
Gary Cake haha u
its nice but after 4 months youll get issues right away- ill go with toyota tundra
What issues will you get?
2016 ford mustang here. Good luck once you're out of warrantie, the evaporator is leaking and they have to remove the whole dash to replace it and cost $2000. Plus the screen is acting up sometimes won't play the music from bluetooth.
My 2016 Tundra has been great, not much to break since its a simple truck. I even get 22 mpg with the 4.6 engine. It's reasonably quick too. The big 3 trucks are becoming too complex. Trucks should have a V8 period.
Brian as if two extra cylinders and double the valves are simple. Nothing simple about the tundra, except the looks, features, safety, and fuel economy
overpriced
Ford vehicles just seem cheap. They don’t have a good reputation for reliability. I’d rather spend my hard earned money on a Toyota Tundra.
I agreed, just wish Toyota would redo the tundra already. Needs to be more effecient, mpg is horrendous, like ,12 mpg. And the interior and infotainment is from 2012.
HA gay! I’ve seen a Honda Ridgeline do better
Gosh fords look so basic. Even optioned out.
2.7 L? Really? On a truck... shame.
The 2018s looks horrible..2017s are far better
