Youre getting less actually theyre not being honest. The v8 today is worse than the v8 from 15 years ago. It used to be steel now its aluminum. Theyve skimped all over in ways they hope you cant see or wont notice.

Both wrong. A truck from 10-20 years ago would cost similar when adjusted for inflation. Those trucks would get you a four speed and 220 horsepower and optional was a sluggish 300 horsepower 5.4. The money you think you are overpaying for gets you 325 horsepower standard and 400 horsepower with either optional gas engine. That aluminum 5.0 block is super strong by the way. It can reliably handle 800-1,000 horsepower.

@@TheAnnoyingBossthe 5.0 is better than any v8 from 15 years ago and not a single problem has been caused by switching to aluminum casting. I’ll give ford crap for making it unnecessarily expensive with all the other features but the drivetrains in these trucks are solid.
“Lower trim level”, still $50k+. Absurd for an everyday person who uses their truck for truck things.

New XLT takeoff on eBay for $250 and all is good. Looking back now, I don't know how it managed to get by my scrutiny during the test drive. Truly awful!

So, what going on with the F150 ABS sensors? I just purchased a 2023 Lariat and didn't get ten miles from the dealership when 5-6 messages start lighting up my instrument cluster. Take it back to the dealership, they tell me the front rt ABS is bad. Could be two days, two weeks or two months before they can get a replacement. Judging from the number of videos pertaining to the F150 ABS system issues it's been going on for quite a while.

Ford should let you put whatever grill you want on whatever trim level.

It looks nice enough, but I'll stick with my infinitely reliably, albeit slow and thirsty, 2003 F150 XLT 4.6L 4x4. My full-coverage car insurance is $600/yr, I can repair most things myself, and I own it!
My 2015 F150 fully loaded lariat. Heated and cool seats. Heated rear seats. Pano roof. 4wd. Bedlined. Heated steering wheel. Remote start. 77k miles. Is still a better value. After market mods. Bds 6inch lift 2.5 fox performance elite front and rear . 12inch vertical touch screen. Etc etc. I look for a reason to sale my truck for something new and QUICKLY REALIZE it’s not worth it.

The previous gen fords from few years ago XLT trim with the massive chrome front looked better in my opinion. If Ford offers some rebates and discounts I'm sure they will sell a ton of these. Sticker price is too high. Good review.
The real question is do they make a standard cab short bed stx?

I love the STX package. I have a 2020 race red STX which is kind of a unicorn truck. I flew from AZ to Kansas City for this truck and got a great surprise. The factory accidentally added the keyless entry key pad on the door. This was not available on an STX in 2020. It didn’t work but the dealer went into the computer and turned it on. The only thing I was going to miss from my old truck was this keyless entry and Shazam it was there by mistake . Love this truck. FYI Ford bring back the race red color

For 2024, the STX is now its own trim level. It used to be a package for the XL trim level
2:18 I have to disagree. I think the neon/yellow accent on the fender looks really cool, especially with the gray/silver metallic. Gives the STX trim that sporty look that Ford was going for. I think this STX and even the base XL are the best value F-150’s available. And nicely equipped for such low end trims. Btw, get the 5.0 Coyote V8 while you still can because before too long, you’ll have to step up to a Super Duty if you still want V8 power. (Hopefully I’m wrong.)
There is not a bed utility package available on STX. Deal killer for me cuz I’m old.

I have a 97 regular cab with 6.5 bed with 4.6 V-8 in Lariet trim; 108K mi with rebuilt front end, new brakes and tires all around. It runs great with dual exhaust; it doesn't burn or leak oil. I love the new trucks with all the bells and whistles, but I might drive 3K mi/yr doing odd things around the house during the year. So, the rational to sell my current truck to buy this or the XL model just isn't there for me.
Honest question: do you ever cover the Ranger? I've seen Broncos, F150s, Mavericks, and even Explorers, but I don't recall a video like this for the Ranger. My oldest son would love to hear about it.
Does the f150 with manual seats have a manual hight adjustment?
I’m confused because a lot of dealerships sell the XLT without floor boards and it looks like it should be an XL now the packages are confusing to me my 2019 XLT looks like a Lariat in the inside and it has WiFi with the 201 chrome package not really understanding it and got it for 53k and it had the rear sliding window plus bed liner I guess I did get a deal love my truck and it’s a super crew cab

So many great features on the STX,but Ford you have to put a power drivers seat
The 2024 is a mid cycle refresh. It’s still a 14th gen f150. Facts are facts buddy
Being in cold 🇨🇦 climates I wish they would have this new stx with heated front seats at least. For the cost of the truck it should have heated front seats and power front seats.
16:30 “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.” Now let me show you this all brand new completely redesigned F150.
I’m not sure I like the owners manual built in. What happens when you need to access the manual and you can’t turn on the truck plus if you’re looking up something for under the hood and your manual is on the screen inside the truck that means you have to keep going back and forth from the engine to the cab to look at the manual.
