Absolutely love my 2017. We got like the best year!! Since the 90s in my opinion

What new truck should we get?

I'll stick to my 2011 Ford F150 with a 5.0L Coyote V8 in it.

@KT_One it does have a remote start on the ford pass app you can remote start and lock and unlock from the app

Thanks for chiming in, your insight is much appreciated. Enjoy that coyote!

Sounds awesome brother, I have a 2011 Ford F150 with a 5.0L Coyote V8 in it with 161,000 miles on it and still going strong and it's a beast and it sounds like a beast with the Borla Exhaust as well.

It’s a Kevlar belt that has been tested to hold up to 1000+ hp. That belt is never breaking under stock use or even modified use

Welcome to inflation, but it's also easier to make money then ever.

It’s a crew cab if you want cheap get an XL regular cab

@@kdogthehandymanNo it isn’t 😂

I’ll stick with my 20 model 5.0 engine with a locker and 3.55 gears😊

Value???

Next… whipple!?

@@contractor556 Sounds like a good IDEA

We don't live in Mexico. @@LouAntonioGiordano

How much

Oh +$1000 with the 1.9 & 72 mo. I had forgot to read it but the contract includes it from Ford Credit. But u have to watch it closely on your buy sheet.

It would be worth it if the phasers weren’t gonna shit out

don't get a raptor unless it's the R. I just traded mine for an stx after three sets of cam phasers @ 65k mi.

Recently got a 2019 STX 2.7 and love it

⁠​⁠@@contractor556I have a 19 STX 2.7 4x4 as well and I love it!

@@nickg912same here fellas. Got mine in 2021 and I love it

What job do you have and how much money do you make to afford that Ecoboost F150?

@@CJColvin to be smart you wanna make over 70k a year bc that’s what an f150 cost nowadays. Realistically you can get what he described working minimum wage. But you don’t always want debt. Safely stack money and put a bigger down payment down to get payments as low as possible. I have a 2.7 2023 f150 xlt crew cab it was like 62 out the door. Plan save and make sure you make more than the value of the truck, that’s the most important factor. MAKE MORE THAN THE TRUCK IS WORTH that’s the motto

@Urmadyoulostthearguement True but still $62K for a truck seems wayyyyyyy too high for my budget but I do agree, put money aside and save up.

You can find low mileage used for half the price.

@@brettyoung1659 Still wayyyyyyy overpriced for my taste and my budget.

That is awesome!

@@TexasTruckChannel Oh Yeah

What new truck should we get?

​@@Hueydem Exactly, this truck is a bargain compared to the the GM and Ram equivalent. The Chevy Custom comes with the 2014 interior and halogen bulbs.

@@Hueydem you shouldn't. Always buy used. 2 year old truck with 20k miles is the best option.

Unfortunately, $50k isn’t what it used to be. That’s what happens when our government prints money and sends billions to foreign governments while neglecting the very people that they’re supposed to be serving. $50k in 2024 money is $41,700 in 2020 money, and that should illustrate just how much money the government has printed and spent in the last few years.

I love how this exact conversation and response is in literally every new truck review…

@@MistrBiggles I understand where you’re coming from, but it’s also important to point out just how bad inflation is because such rampant inflation can be almost impossible to mentally adjust to. It’s hard to believe that our currency could be so devalued in such a short period of time, and it’s another form of taxation (aka theft) on top of the already rampant taxation that we’re forced to put up with. Income tax, property tax and sales tax, just to name a few, and on top of that we get inflation tax, which essentially steals from us by devaluing the very money that we’ve worked for and saved… our government has proven that they’re not trustworthy and that they’re incapable of handling our tax dollars responsibly, and they need to be called out on it. They don’t serve the people, instead they treat our tax dollars like their own piggy bank and enrich themselves and their “friends” to the detriment of the American people, and we have every right to call it out and be infuriated by it.

I hate liberals

Vs 35k for a civic.

What!!! Why?

Gay

I prefer a key and I’ve watched so many reviews where people bitch about all the electronics in today’s trucks; apparently Ford was watching too. Besides that, the things that really count to the people who are going to buy this truck…. a lot of standard safety tech, no floor hump in the rear seat and the chef’s kiss….that beautiful coyote engine.

Nah most of there trucks have it

Gay

The antenna boys can't steal you signal with a key.

Heck yeah, our mom got us matching shirts.

I use mine. It's a great thing to have.

Not everyone is broke

@@mysterysolver514 does it make someone broke to not want to buy a brand new vehicle that will literally lose $12,000 over the first year of its life? If you've got that kind of cash for it, great! I'm happy for you! My wife and I together make well above six figures and that's not how we want to spend our money, and I get an A-plan discount from Ford. I dont have a car payment and haven't had one for 4 years. Also, having a $1,000 car payment isn't a flex for me either. So you do you bud, and I'll do me.

So buy used and stop crying.

And overpay for a used truck in this inflated market instead?

@@ryanmcneely3882 would you rather pay $35k for a truck with 40-50k miles, or $50k for the same truck brand new? Yes it's inflated, no it's not changing the fact I'm not paying brand new

Congrats! I ordered the same truck last week only mine is carbonized grey.

@@cwqrpportablecongrats to you as well!

@@vinaashak Thanks. Is this your first PB?

We can thank mom for that!

Thanks for subbing!

I got a fully optioned GTI in 2019 for ~30k, now they're breaking 40. I don't think there's anything that hasn't gone up 20%+, sadly.

I did the same 2016 f150 xlt loaded with the 2.7 EB 40k out the door.

@@Aaronm123same package. Same price

@@hestongraves3274 the black truck is a stx not a xlt plus my truck is 4x4

@@Aaronm123 I was talking about mine. 4x4 xlt

👋 Fort Worth tx here! Love my eco! I get it….

No hate on the Ecobeast, they are awesome! We have owned both the 3.5 EB, and a few coyotes over the years. In 2024, the age of turbos/hybrids/evs, we just appreciate the V8.

What job do you have and how much money do you make in you're Texas town? Also are you the only Texan that loves the EPA as well as hate Muscle Cars?

@@CJColvin bro ! He said he’s had a 5.0 but prefers 3.5… you are the only one bringing hate…3.5 will tow better than 5.0… only because of that torque being reached at such low rpm

@michaelH0000 I know, what do you have and how much money do you make to afford that Ecoboost F150 of yours? Also will it outlast my good ol 96 Ford F150 with a 5.0L (302) Windsor V8?

Oh we agree. But can report that it’s seamless unlike most of those systems.

Totally twice on Sundays.

Nah

LMAO. Toyota builds trucks?

​@@cwqrpportable😂

Love that idea

4x4 is a big option. And not everyone wants it. That should be an option. Remote start on the other hand, we would love that as a standard option on the key.

Ford didn’t invite us to the Salt Lake Launch. We will pull one from a dealer as soon as we can.

You could always pay 50k for a Silverado Custom with the 2014 interior and halogen bulbs. But seriously, No one should be paying sticker for these trucks. Most dealerships are knocking atleast 4k off the STX. They will sale at invoice which knocks off a little more than 2k, Ford is offering a national factory rebate that everyone qualifies for at 2k. Not including if you qualify for other incentives like military/police. The loaded STX 4x4 trucks are getting over 7k off.

Uneducated take. The current 5.0 makes more torque than the 2.7 almost the entire rev band. 2.7 only makes more from 2,800-3,300 rpm. Look at the curves.

@jamesm2464 the 5.0 has more hp and needs to rev to get the torque. Both 2.7 and 3.5 engines build torque down low.5.0 is a screamer.Try towing with each of these engines and you will know what I'm talking about.Not as uneducated as you think😉

@jamesm2464 yes 2.7 makes more mid range right you need it towing

I tow 5,000 pound every weekend in the summer with my 2023 5.0L, it never screams. I drove the 2.7 on my test drive, you might as well get out and push to merge in that thing. Had no top end power.

@jamesm2464 ok bud the arguing match between eco and 5.0 bs is over let's move along 😊

found him.

Totally, although the rain was the main culprit in our shoot.

If we were buying for ourselves, not for the show, F150. But mostly due to use case. Also due to the 5.0 Merica factor.

We are talking the rear springs, which are leaf’s.

Crap, are we???

Crack kills, bro
