Really nice truck, I guess the rear main seal and the exhaust problems which are not terminal but are substantial problems. I would just clean up the main seal and see what it is like in a couple of months as it doesn't look too bad and it saves pulling the transmission but the exhaust really has to be done now and it would be interesting to see that problem fixed and if the wizard uses a different bolt for it to prevent it happening again.

Can someone explain the difference between a Ford 150 and a 250 please?

@bwofficial1776

6 ай бұрын

@@philtucker1224 Sure. The F-250 is larger and has a higher payload capacity and tow rating. The frame is thicker, the suspension and axles are stronger, and the engine options are bigger and more powerful. The F-250 has a different body to fit the larger components and differentiate it from the F-150. It's intended for heavier work or towing than the F-150. The F-350 likewise has an even higher capacity than the F-250. It's the same difference between a Silverado 1500 and 2500 or a Ram 1500 and 2500. The F-150 is a nice balance of size and capability for daily driving. Since pickup trucks have gotten so good, most people choose the F-150 because they don't need the F-250's extra capability or lesser fuel economy. You would buy an F-250 if you had a big trailer or just want a really big pickup. The F-250 is a large vehicle even by American standards. It's fun to drive because you feel like you rule the road.

To be fair, that's the case with most modern cars. Our 2017 explorer is about 8 and a half years old. It has the incredibly durable 3.5 duratec v6. Zero issues with anything on the car , not a single factory part has been replaced in 8 years. That's a very common trend with the 2011-19 explorer. Just like any car, you'll occasionally see someone on Internet forums who had an issue. But the overwhelming majority of people have shared our experience. The highest mileage one I've seen had around 480k miles on it, and was the highest mileage police car on record, at least for that state, if not the county.

I love mine. It's my second vehicle. It's practical for moving things and towing, luxurious for a truck, great in snow, and of course there's the Baja... In addition to smaller camping trips, every year I do 2 weeks of dispersed camping out west. Last month it was Moab and southwest Colorado. Incredibly comfortable, both getting there on the interstate and off-road...hauling 2 weeks of gear. Easily dispatches Imogene or any other Pass and all but the most hard core of rock crawling. Did 85mph across sandy wash sections of the the White Rim Trail in Canyonlands. It's a bit thirsty, but not as bad as the 11.9mpg Hoovie is getting. I've see 15mpg+ hailing a 14 foot trailer on the interstate. About the only pain is access to some of the sparkplugs (and coils)--and there's 16 of them!

I have to say, 146k miles on my 2013 Lincoln MKT with the 3.5 EcoBoost and no engine issues at ask. I've put about 85k of those miles, many as an Uber vehicle in Chicago, so they weren't easy highway. It's going to need the timing chains and tensioners soon, but it'll have 150k on it by then so I can't complain.

Love my 6.2L. I hear those passenger headers are about $600-$800. At the point you are at, I would do some stainless shorty replacement headers and get some horsepower recovery.

Great content Tyler, thank you

I mean you can't really put the 6.2L above the 7.3L powerstroke. There are so many 7.3L powerstrokes with well over a million miles (or equiv with thousands of idle hours). That thing was really overbuilt and pre-EPA screwing up diesels forever. Yea the 5.4L3V was flawed with too small of an oil pump, but if you change the oil aggressively and only use full synthetic you can extend the life of those phasers for a long time. And it is fixable with an aftermarket oil pump. And the 5.0L replacement has been solid. Even severely neglected examples of those are still puttering along with hundreds of thousands of miles.

Great combo! Hvac flapper for hold cold air behind the dash dies. Shocks need rebuilt often. Android tablet upgrade is kinda garbage wireless carplay works but buggy. Leaf springs are creeky squeaky. Spark plugs can be a difficult job.

Tyler, It'd be cool if you put a supercharger on it. Both Whipple and Roush still make superchargers for it. With that you'd be getting 600 horsepower and with other mods(headers, camshaft, exhaust, custom tune) you probably could get it up to 700 horsepower. With new some Raptor Rs going for $150,000 It'd be nice to see what you could build a similar Raptor for. I think your fans would like to see it.

Yes you do need a parking brake (it's not an "emergency brake"). It's super hard on automatics to not use it (and that's probably why it's busted from lack of use). Not using it is why it's hard to shift out of park in automatics because the entire weight of the vehicle is resting on the parking paw and REALLY hard on the shit mechanism and parking paw. Use the damn parking brake on all cars. This is why it's an automatic thing on modern cars.

I think there is some truth to the reliability of the older engines that were not as complex. However I think the issues with newer engines aren't as bad as Hoovie makes it sound. Currently driving an Ecoboost with 240k miles, no problems and running strong.

Its an awesome truck!!! Yes high miles is fine but a low miles is also good!! Dad bought one before covid-flation and the expense was the shock rebuild but its just an EPIC TRUCK!

The wizard saying he's honna shart! 🤣 oh and you are correct. I had a 2010 swb 5.4 raptor. Loved it until the trans went out at 80 miles. Always wanted the 6.2 but found the 5.4 at 14 mpg was bad enough haha!

As a brit its crazy to think of a f150 as light duty! I know life in the Caribbean and have a non rapture but 4x4 one of these for work and bloody love it

I had a '93 Ranger with the 4L V6 that made it to 380,000 miles. Loved it to bits, but I also had the exhaust problem where I was going through a manifold a year before it'd crack and leak. How have Ford not come up with a solution for chronic exhaust leaks yet? Certainly worse problems to have, but come on.

Awesome mechanic Awesome price Awesome friend .

I'm rooting for you 😎 you seem like a swell guy

I love my 2019 Raptor. Had it since new, haven’t had any issues other than the cam phasers. Fixed under warranty. Gaps the 6.2 all day. Love all raptors though!

6.2 will outlast it and be cheaper to maintain in long run.

@@derekgardin1512possibly. But not everyone keeps trucks for decades. While I do own it, I’d rather have the lighter, more attractive, not as sluggish, better equipped, faster, better shocks version of the truck.
