I'm a Toyota guy, I love toyotas. I looked at a Tundra and was doing all I could to get the dealership to actually deal on the price, no go. Out of frustration I went to test an f150 and had no intention on buying, since I haven't owned an American car in over 30 years buying a Ford was crazy talk. After the test drive I looked at my wife and said this is the nicest vehicle I have ever driven. Talk about comfortable, those captain seats are pure luxury, the 2.7 is really powerful, the cabin is dead quiet, the supercrew is enormous, I mean you could live in it. Needless to say I bought the f150.

Chevy runs in the family blood for me, was in the market for a 2021 Chevy custom, but after the dealer didn’t want to work with me , I took a left on the Ford dealer down the street never ever thinking I would buy one & walked out with one.. not just because they actually helped me, but wen I got inside the truck, it was amazing , had more features than a Chevy and I was sold ..this was 3days ago, here’s to making new Ford memories with my wife and kids 🍻

Great review Sofyan! You review it so well it made me want a truck and I had no notion of owning a truck !

I just picked up a 2015 2.7 last year,honestly I luv it. I don’t do any towing ,but over all very happy with it. I’ve heard some great things about the 5.0,but for my business and every day needs, no disappointments.

Im a Toyota guy too, LOVED my Tacoma for being light and reliable. But the dash rattles and horrible transmission made me trade it. My '18 STX is the best looking truck out there IMO, and 4wd Supercab is only 4300lbs. The transmission is a mind reader, skips gears intelligently, lots of drive modes. And the power is crazy, u never have to go over 2,800rpm to haul ass.

I was really skeptical about the 2.7 liter Ecoboost until I drive a supercab FX4 and I was really surprised at the acceleration and how nice and quite the ride was.

2.7 is probably the best engine I've ever had in a half ton. Not the most peak horse power, obviously. But 400 ft lbs of torque and even though it has 70 hp less than the 5.0 it pulls harder. It pulls way harder than my dad's 5.3 Silverado. My buddy has a 2018 5.3 Sierra and the 2.7 in my truck will out pull that easily. And has a way faster 0-60. And my F150 2.7 4x4 Screw averages 18mpg where his Sierra 4x4 Screw averages 14. It's the ideal engine for 90% of truck owners for sure. Ford definitely has it figured out.

2018 F150 lariat 2.7 here. Get great gas mileage, no problem with power. We tow a 4500lbs travel trailer. Never a moment do I miss V8 and our mind were set to buy the 5.0. Luckily the truck that I wanted was in a remote lot that we had to swap a 2.7 F150 to... and the rest is history👍

The 2.7L EcoBoost isn’t a bad thing. It’s actually quicker off the line, has the same 0-60 as the 3.5L and gets incredible mileage. The towing capacity in that configuration is still around 7000lbs (check out The Fast Lane Truck Ike Gauntlet run with this truck, it’s great). I was dead set on the 3.5L, but after doing more research I decided the 2.7L is actually the far better choice if you don’t plan on towing more than 7000lbs on a regular basis. I’ve had it for two days and I’m getting around 11l/100k average, and I’ve been having some fun with the throttle.

I've owned many pickup trucks. My last three have been the Ford F-150. I have never had any reliability issues, I've only done oil changes. I've had Toyota's and they've been in the shop more often! I've driven all from The Big Three and the Ford drives the best. There's no question that Ford is ahead of the game when it comes to full size pickup trucks. That is why RAM and GM are introducing new models. Their current stock cannot compete with the current Ford. As you know, General Motors will now be putting aluminum components on the new GMC Chevy twins. It's simple, the Ford drives better, has better gas mileage, best crash test scores, best towing and payload ( depends how equipped),has more interior space, and a flat rear floor. I just love them and it's going to be hard to get me to switch. It is the number one selling vehicle in North America for a reason!

Bought a 2018 2.7 Eco SuperCrew 4x4 last Oct 2022 and love it! The “get up and go” is impressive, and it feels much more powerful than the Chevys and Fords I grew up with back in the day. It’s a pleasure to drive in town and on the highway. Lots of room in the cabin. I really really like this truck and envision sticking with the Ford F150 down the road.

I have this same exact truck, same color, same wheels, but the 3.5 Ecoboost, and I am enjoying it a lot!

I don't know why people trash trucks. It is always a personal choice. It is preference. You might like the looks of a sierra gmc and you might not. You might like the back seat of a Ford and maybe not. To each his own as they say. As long as you maintain the truck and you like how it looks and behaves...go for it. I hate people who trash one over the other. Everyone has a bad experience to any level in any make. There are Fords who have over 700,000 clicks and also GMCS and CHevs, RAMS, NISSAN, and also Toyotas. Depends how you take care of them. If you have always been a FORD guy then go for it. If you are a TUNDRA fan then go for it. Be kind to each other. Respect what each make offers for the consumer.

I have the 2018 3.5L EcoBoost. Based on my experience, I would say go with the 2.7L unless you tow all the time. I love my truck when towing my 30' camper, but when it is empty, it is a little too much. It reminds me of the muscle cars we would build back in high school with a cam too big and gears and a torque converter that don't match. It is hard to drive smoothly. If you drive too lightly, it skips gears and has horrible turbo lag until it takes off like a rocket. You can seriously unintentionally lay rubber at 30 mph when accelerating in city traffic. And if you drive it is sport mode, you will outpace traffic and it kills your gas mileage. The 2.7L is more civilized.

I’m a Kid that lives around Chrysler, Toyota and GM and the Ford is just fit for me in my mind, I want this as my first vehicle because everyone loves every truck except for fords and I want to change that cause the truck is beautiful ❤️

I actually think it looks better then the XLT. The XLT doesnt even have the center console unless you get the sport package.

The 2.7 ecoboost is now The F150’s best selling engine, because they perform, quiet, strong and economical. No they don’t sound as good as the 5.0, no they won’t tow 12,000 pounds, but for 80% of truck buyers I think this engine is more than enough.

Makes it look slab-sided. That year Silverado with the flared, squared fenders and wheel wells was maybe the best-looking pickup ever.

aybe someone said this already but I'm not going to read through 1000 comments to find out. The Lariat is not the most popular trim. XLT is

Great video!

Nice review. Thank you

I enjoyed your video! Keep up the good work

I have a 2.7 XLT Sport. Love it. Best part is I get 18 MPG on average.

You sound like Alton Brown. Also, great review!

For sure switching to a Truck next year. F-150 is on my mind, The Lariat Sport with the 5.0

About a year I’ve had my STX Crew 4WD, in that time and nearly 15,000 miles it has been flawless, quick, quiet, economical and comfortable! Not saying it’s a better truck than the other brands, but dang so far it’s been one terrific truck. The 5.0, 5.3 and 5.7 V8’s sound better, but at the light the 2.7 will leave them sitting!

Poppy Neese I personally think the STX with the 2.7 is the best bang for your buck in the F-150 lineup. It’s not the most well equipped but it’s still decent and the STX appearance package is really sharp looking. Plus you can get it for less than $40k.

KentB27 got mine for about 32, it was 10 off, drive to Charlottesville Va to get it, pretty sure the big money folks down there wouldn’t even consider a lowly xl truck.

Poppy Neese Probably not but the STX has a lot that differentiates it from a regular XL. It’s also a lot nicer than a Silverado Custom which is the GM equivalent of and STX.

I really like the 2.7t, it is peppy.

liked the review...some say get the v8. Don't need it...the 2.7 Ecoboost makes the same torque and burns less fuel. I will miss the sound of that coyote V8 though

What's your take on the audio system? Do you think the B&O Play stereo is worth moving from the XLT to the Lariat?

Jake Schreiber test drive them. B&O make good systems, but you get so much more than that with the upgrade to the lariat

You are my palico. Love the videos, I hope your channel continues to grow. One suggestion - discontinue commenting on how the door closes. I can't really recall a time when you've said, "The door clunk isn't really that good. It seems like cheap sound deadening."

I love the door shutting! I went on a door shutting binge at a car show and open and closed every single card or in the entire place and it's interesting how you can determine quality based on the door click. But yeah, there's plenty of things reviewers do that don't really matter much in the real world.

Ford vehicles have been the most recalled since 2004. Most of their recalls have stayed out of the limelight, but because of their massive sales volume and expansive vehicle lineup, it stands to reason that their vehicles will experience more recalls. Recently, Ford F-Series trucks including the best-selling Ford F-150 have been recalled for transmission issues related to an output speed sensor, affecting 202,000 trucks. Other recalls such as the driver’s air bag module recall on Ford Flex and related vehicles affected only 200 vehicles. And JD Powers 2016 Dependability Study Overall, the study paints a troubling picture of the reliability of certain brand vehicles, most notably Ford and Dodge. Ford, which had the second-worst score in the 2016 survey with 204 problems per 100 vehicles.

Consumer Reports for reliability. They don’t take advertising money from manufacturers so they’re pretty unbiased.

The houses youre driving by are incredible, where are you? Also you should test a fully loaded 2018 ram 1500 big horn (the volume seller) and then compare it to the new 2019 ram 1500 when it comes out.

I have a 2018 2.7 with 4wd...I’m getting 20.1 in mixed drivingwith bigger tires (285/55r20) and heavier wheels (20x10) and front end is leveled

I chose the 5.0 V8. Can't beat the sound of the V8 , plenty of power.
