Looks like some great ideas

I’m a fan for sure

Tractor supply feed hell yeah!

I like it.

I am big fan of Ford blue interior

The scales is the one tech item I really wanted as I’ll be carrying a truck camper. It is a really good idea. Camera wise I think overall GMC does a better job for towing. The tailgate camera is interesting but not really needed if you have basic backing skills. Ford kept taking features off KR F350 order and simply isn’t being open with folks waiting on 23. They are also terribly managed right now. Consumer reports recently said do not buy 23 F150 which is embarrassing. Not sure why Farley is still around.

Another good video

That’s a nice truck lov the white interior

Who can even afford these damn trucks anymore? I would love one but I'm a believer in not having payments and paying 100K+ would make me cry.

JD, Great video series man. What would be awesome is to wrap with a short video where you show specs side by side. I was talking with the spouse the other day that if we get one rig we will need the payload capacity but if we go with the other, we could go with the 450 like we want for better turning radius. I don’t think you called out the payload capacity on the 350 crew cab like you did on the 450. Interested generally what those real numbers might be

Here's what I would like to know about Ford's built-in scale. Will it tell you if the load is balanced in the bed, can the sensors tell if one side is heavier than the other? Example: Load balancing with a truck camper in the bed.

That's pretty cool. But I don't know if it overcomes the commercial for the rainbow raptor.

Some rancher will get mad and slam the tailgate shut and the camera and sensor will fall into the tailgate. Or while loading something with closed tailgate and drop something and bust the camera

Is it available in the half tons? I feel like it’s more useful in them considering the average buyer isn’t hauling 5-8k payload 😂. Really cool tech nonetheless!

Ford has had the scale in the F150 for over a year now.

Did you happen to ask if air bags or something like sumosprings will throw it off?

Backup untill it sounds expensive.

??? I noticed the guys step up on the side of the tailgate. Did they step on the bumper or is there another step on the side of the tailgate? Did Ford replace the built in step that pulls out at the rear of the tailgate for the tailgate camera?

Was there any aftermarket add ons in this video, or all factory? Is that blue rig a 350 or 450?

This looks like a great way for ford to deny some warranty claims due to over loading. There are going to be alot of upset guys out there with f250 diesels

I believe that the tailgate down camera tech. Is only available with Platinum and Limited unfortunately this tech should be offered standard in all trim levels regardless as a safety factor. I would only hope that my 23 Lariat Ultimate Tremor with tow tech and on board scale comes with tailgate down cams. Yes JD you can use your smart phone ford pass app for the on-board scales.

I love the content! But as a farmer and guy that needs a truck all of these new trucks have way more than i personally need. Give me AC ,stereo, Power windows locks and good leather not the stuff gm uses that tears in 8 years. Also all tge tech is great but much like our new tractors the cost to repair it isnt worth the convenience in my opinion. I get it every manufacturer has to make something new to be the best but a truck shouldnt be 90k dollars! Gees that was a decent home 10 years ago!! Anyone else agree or disagree?

My 550 can hold 10klbs in the bed and walk off with it.

This is a cool feature and the tailgate hook is also genius. Ford was my go to for decades. I tried to buy a 2023 F250 Lariat Screw with an 8 ft bed in white for this entire year. After dealerships continuously adding a “market price adjustment” I gave up and ordered a GMC 2500. Ford’s dealers are destroying their brand loyalty.

I don’t get why they don’t add this tech to the XL and XLT! That limited is going for $100k + and are hardly used to it’s full potential.

No LED rear lights on King Ranch. To hell with Ford.

The tech is fun. It's a shame how expensive these trucks are with it right now. Just paid off my '22 F-350. I should stop watching these videos before I get any expensive ideas...😅

It’s going to be incorrect because the springs always settle and sag with age. Is it going to recalibrate itself? Seems a little gimmickry, because if I am buying bags of whatever, I’m paying for those before loading, and I’m not going to buy bags(bales,etc) based on what’s loaded on my truck. It’s too late after it’s loaded, a driver needs to know before he drives the truck to the loading dock how much his load will be. Very few buyers are going to buy this option if they order a truck.

I wonder if this new tech is subscription based like everything else now a days, it's getting terrible that you pay extra for Denali, limited, platinum, etc. and pay monthly to use these features. the automotive industry has really crapped on the consumer.

Ignorance is bliss and I don't want to know if I'm overloaded.

Frankly Ford should thank you because it attractively depicts the interior and makes me less apt to order cancel after a 9 month wait and hop into a 3500 Denali Ultimate. You and Raitis marketing Limited trim so well helped close and retain sales this year. No BS Who knows if this was even intentional but it reminds me of the KZread shorts from Utah Auto show where the robot channels made the truck look Atlas Blue so people would click on it. 😂
