Why did it take so long
Wouldn't give a piss for ECO TecH. Bronco isn't looking good. 2.3 single turbo or a 2.7 twin turbo. What a joke..
Can you do one of these on the sliverado please
Look at Scotty with all the SEO in the description.
@Edward Barnes Wow! That is my lowest mileage when towing a 9,000 lbs. travel trailer on a ford f350 diesel and 17 to 21 mpg when not towing.
Ummm, this Ford truck history lesson doesn't really explain why the F150 is better than the Tundra.
I can certainly see why certain individuals might be....sore with him....
@Leopold Holding value doesn't mean better quality neccesarily. The jeep wrangler has excellent resale but not very good quality or reliable. Not knocking the tundra they are good but the f150 is better in every category other than reliability and that's cause the tundra is a simple truck that's pretty much the same for over a decade. Not alot of options or configurations. The f150 has like 6 different engines to choose from and all kinds of crazy options even massage seats. F150 is the number one selling vehicle because you can get it in so many configurations and stays atleast 1 step ahead on technology.
He lost his mind from old age already
Its waaay better than a Tundra. Tundra doesnt even have a fully boxed frame. The rear under the bed is channel, riveted to the front boxed section. Cheapo interier, plastic. Weak front end. Less power.
So I owned 2012 and 2017 F150. My favorite body style of any truck. My favorite for power. My favorite for style BUT I will never own another one!! Both trucks Required Timing chain replacement around 60k miles. The 2012 cost me 4K to replace. The 2016 cost me 6k!!!!!! Numerous sensors in both trucks bad around 50k miles!! Maintenace costs on F150s is HORRIBLE!!! Reliability on F150 is HORRIBLE!!
I now only by tundras. Drove last one to 288k miles. Changed fluids, tires and brakes!! Nothing more. Tundra limited or TRD is just as nice inside as F150! Will pull a trailer or boat just as well or better than F150. Gas mileage a little better than F150! No, it’s not as sporting looking but that look isn’t worth the extreme maintenace costs!!!! IMO
F150, scotty’s favorite pick up truck that he wouldn’t buy
Wait till the Celica pickup comes out
@@PropaneTreeFiddy lmao
He's too cheap for fuel
Propane TreeFiddy 94’ Celica pick up to be exact!
Bobby Knuckles tundra is wastage of money for him & he hates wasting money,, i think he would prefer modifying his celica to a pick up truck
Scotty, how does it feel to leave your mark on history! Congrats brother, hardwork and knowledge sure pays off.
Ford hired my brother out of college. He worked for Ford for about a decade in management. I will never forget him telling me that Ford will live or die by the F-150. Great vid!
Ford hires mechanics everyday because the breakdowns don’t stop
W/o the F-150 all they really have is the Mustang. I wish they’d go back to the Mustang’s muscle roots
@@loganthornhill6678 Your reply to his comment makes no sense.
@@Jmstraubgamer I was thinking same thing,lol.
Why doesn't ford export the F150? It's almost exclusive to american continent...... I would love to get one in south africa!

Its better
@@tylersutton1048 except it's not lol
he just gave us the history of the F-150!!! I was waiting for the part. Is he implying history makes it better lol boooma
@@weareawake1116 yeah prove it what they sell 30,000 tundras last year lol
@Kubeanie Gaming it’s proven by reliability. Have fun with your eco boost and ten speed lol.
I remember selling new Ford F100s as a young man, 3-on-the tree with a 6-cylinder engine, for less than $2000. At the same time, Lincolns were selling for over $10K. I'll bet that F100 was still running when the Lincloln was in the salvage yard.
Those old inline-6 engines were cheap to make and ran forever.
Still driving my 1981 F100 3-on-the tree! Almost every day! Don't hesitate to take it out on a 200+ mile road trip on the weekends either.
Lincoln has been a division of Ford since before the F100 was even around
I’m owned Ford pick ups since 1976 I’ve had about 10 in my lifetime 3-4 hundred thousand miles on each one of them you can’t beat them
No, you CAN beat them, and they just keep on going!!
I tried desperately to blow up the truck at work, it ran so rough, but all it did was get smoother the more I beat the crap out of it. 1976 F-350 w/351 V-8, 30 years ago. Sorry boss.
Amen.
As a tradesman for 40+ years my TWO top requirements were cost over life of the truck and reliability. (ya can't make money if yer trux broke) WAY back Dodge was close to Ford. No more, and GM has always been more about style than function. I absolutely LOVED the old 300 CID inline six. Not for speed demons, but unbreakable if ya kept the oil changed and never overheated them. That engine wore out every body it ever powered. Most bulletproof engine ever! (a small caveat, I think, from lottsa reading that the new 10 speed transmission is a LOSER. Not real crazy about dual turbos either. But then I'm retireded so it ain't my problem any mo)
This is the best truck to have IN the U.S. because our roads are so much better than most country's. Outside of the U.S. where most countries have crappy roads, don't ever get one. Most foreign countries with poor roads only use Mitsubishi, Nissan, and the king of off-road trucks Toyota.
@Jonathan Spier the 10 speed is great. I drive one daily. Its also a lot bigger than the 6 speed, its huge
I really wish ford would bring back the orange color for the f150 nice to see cool colors of standard colors
Our company trucks are all orange lol, can't stand it now
It would be nice if Ford had a greater variety of colors again.
@@cltracy2921 yeah its boring just having blue, black, red, and silver. Make some colors stand out and people will turn heads to see what vehicle it is. Like toyota has that bright blue/matte blue it comes on the tacoma really nice color if u ask me.
Dont worry the new Bronco comes in Orange.
"You can have as many color as you want, as long as it's black." Yeah, limited color is a Ford thing since its inception.
They have always been a good truck, they run long and don't rust prematurely.
Thanks for your videos!
Wow- I didn't expect this kind of production quality
Yeah looks so good
@@DeCaYsF lol
I think Scotty got a little help from Ford on this one.
I was surprised too lol
I Agree, but Scottie This Seems like Advertising More Than a Scottie Video LoL 🤣
Nope. Part of Scotty's new "history" of autos series. He did an extensive one on Toyota, and praised them to the rafters. But Scotty either loves something or hates it. Not a lot of middle of the road with him. He said way back the F 150 was superior to the Tundra, but if I recall he hasn't had a lot else good to say about Ford. (okay, he loves hot rod 'stangs, but he's a GUY)
Rev up Payola
Tom Swinburn Absolutely ! And this still feels like an Advertisement For F150 than the Classic Scottie mechanic extraordinaire guy next door !
And Scotty doesn’t like their turbo engines. I don’t get it
Toyota Tundra is a much better truck, better build quality and much more reliable with far better resale value
Saw a Ford F-150 today and thought of you Scotty! Good thoughts of course!
Now I will probably do the same) haha!
You can't just see one there are so many on the roads
You saw one? I see at least 10 a day, not including my own
Now hold on Scotty I thought tundras were the best
His opinion seems to change like the weather.
Older tundras. New ones are problematic
Lol
@@rvd2960 lmao. You get a F for your homework. The asin transmission and 5.7 in the newer ones go 5000k plus with little to no issues.
@@fredwilliams7893 5 million ?
Just got my 2020. F 150 , and i love it , thanks Scotty for helping me get the best pick up truck out there
@Jonathan McCully Nah, he didn't buy a GM product. He'll be alright, just gotta watch out for the ecoboost engines.
Just wait a few years
I am on my 5th Ford pickup I have had Chevrolet and Dodge love all my Fords better better ride I use it for work and play it's a 2011 with a 3.5 EcoBoost more power than my 2009 with a 5.4
Hey hey now! I still have a 04' 5.4, running at 212k miles with mild towing, NEVER had an issues with the recommended maintenances of course.
I'm a Ford man but you mentioned 2 engine options that I wouldnt reccomend. When it comes to 5.4, the 4.6 ha almost the same power but less issues and the ecoboost is good when it comes to numbers, what's going to happen a few years from now when that forced air induction starts to wear that engine out? A V6 with power of a V8 and amazing fuel economy is amazing to think of, But there is downsides.

me: 🤯I can't handle this..
Wait until the next F-150 recall.
My man gotta make that money, one way or another 😂
They at least have the courtesy to circle the problem
When Ford was repainting F150's in the early '90's I was the third owner of a 1989 and they contacted me for a repaint. How do you beat that?
Bro he has always said for years that he likes ford F series trucks more then Toyota but just prefers Tacoma’s over rangers . This is nothing new
The Ford F150 is probably the best thing Ford makes. It's actually a pretty good truck.
It an outstanding full-size pickup truck. It's been the best selling vehicle for over 40 years.
So much for his love of Toyota’s
The way you commented makes me feel like you live under a rock lol. Everyone knows it's a good truck, even its haters and competition.
@@austinreeves9112 and? You make a living making comments to put others down who share an opinion?
Yeah I'm a Japanese manufacturer fan. But I'm not blind to the obvious.
TK UA you can like multiple truck brands. I think Scotty likes most except Chrysler/ fiat. His favorite brands seem to be Fors and Toyota
I had an '86 F-150 and used it to plow my kilometer-long driveway for 5 years. Very, very tough driveline and strong, simple V-8 that would start on the coldest days with a shot of gas in the carburetor. Today's Ford trucks not so much- unlabelled fuse panels, special service tools for everything, an engineering team that actually released the Triton engine with the inconceivable spark plug flaws, and a welded drive shaft carrier bearing that should cost $25 to replace, now requiring a customer to replace the entire drive shaft for $1800. And Ford still is the leader, since other automakers seem to be following suit with their corporate strategy of forcing return trips to the dealership for stupid repairs.
I own a 2017 F-150 with a 3.5L naturally aspirated V-6 and it is a great family car (truck) for me and my family. ♥️ F-150

Gord235 do it! I have a 2012 with a flowmaster super 44 exhaust. It’s so fun to drive and that engine is incredibly strong and very quick
I love my 2019 f150. It’s the only one like her here in North West Arkansas. Reg cab long bed 2wd. 5.0. 10 speed 355 limit and locking. Full tow package. With the back up assist. Blue jeans blue. Love it. F250 mirror with spotlights both sides. Ford tough bed spray in bed liner. I’m a Ford man. Later.
CLINT KEENE R u dealing with oil consumption?
No sir not yet. 20400 miles. Oil change every 5000 miles reg maintenance.
CLINT KEENE ok thats good news, a lot of the 18-20 5.0s are experiencing oil consumption issues
I’m blessed she’s sweet
Jesus Perez from what I keep reading any 2020 5.0 F150 built past Oct ‘19 shouldn’t have the oil consumption issue.
I’ve only bought one F150 in my life. That was in 1996 and it was a half year 1997. The reason I only bought one is because I still drive it today. I had to replace the starter a couple of years ago, the front sway bar end links since the rubber rotted away and just last year the cpu for $150. That’s around $300 in 24 years. Can’t figure how they sell so many since I probably won’t live long enough to buy another one.
This is awesome! Had my Ford F-150 2000 since new and it never let me down. It was the ultimate truck with 4WD. I just picked up a 2020 Lariat and sold my old truck. I still regret selling it but this new truck is definitely making me forget it 💪
You got the picture for the 80-86 range wrong, but it's still a great history.
I love my Ford's. Bronco, Ranger, F-150 x2 and an F-350. And they have all been put to the test and used as intended and as not intended.
Keep up the good work Scotty
I knew that the Ford F150 was popular, but damn! Thanks Scotty for the indepth review! Be safe out there 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
In México 🇲🇽 we like the F150 very much too, here's officially called LOBO(wolf) with its OEM LOBO badges. I still have my LOBO since 2006 ...Saludos Scotty! 🤟😎

I was waiting for Scotty to jump out from the back of an F150 to tell us to ring that bell.
Out of all the vehicles I’ve owned my F150 is my favorite.
Happy with our 2014 3.5 TT F150, very dependable and fun to drive
My F150 has 255k miles and is still running strong. Sure it has the occasional minor thing go wrong, but parts are cheap and easy to replace and find. Has never left me stranded. Only way I'll get rid of it is if it burns to the ground.
Jose Muniz yeah people tell me, “well your Ford has been in the shop 4 times and my Chevy has only been in the shop once” so they ask me what needed to be fixed. The VCT solenoids were replaced, spark plugs, crankshaft position sensor and the throttle body were also replaced. So I asked them the same question. “My Chevy has only been in the shop once to have the engine replaced”. My 2006 F-150 has 260k and my friends Silverado has 193k. I would rather my truck be in the shop 4 times for minor work ($650) then to have it in the shop once for a engine overhaul ($3k). Lol
Joshua McDonald probably more like $6k. My friend just replaced the engine in his 2006 GMC. Cost him nearly 6 grand, parts and labor. Barely has 150k miles.
I love these videos scotty thank you hopefully all is well on your end my friend
thank you!
@@scottykilmer HOW MUCH did Ford give you to show this video that they made for you???
My grandfather had an 83 F-150. My grandfather kept that thing until 2018 when he sold it off for $1500 dollars. The AC compressor went out and luckily the guy he bought from was a DIY guy and put the compressor in himself and the guy still uses it as a daily driver.
Definitely the best truck on the road. I have 2017 and a 93 f150. The 93 has the 300 straight 6 and is ALL ORIGINAL under the hood with 190k. I'm sold for life
36 mpg..... back then.... yeah thanks stupid emissions systems....
Emissions systems and how overly heavy cars are nowadays, thanks to ridiculously over complicated safety systems (which cost a fortune to repair/replace when they fail or you get in even a minor bumper tap accident). I guess it's all progress, but I find it hilarious how my '94 Nissan Sentra only weighs 2,000 pounds while a new one weighs 3,000, 50% more. Most half ton trucks nowadays weigh around 5-6 thousand pounds, from what I've found an early 90s F150 weighs only 4,000.
@@ixionn563 Why are they called half tons if they don't even weight half a ton
@@ixionn563 your point is well-received, but the Nissan Sentras difference is 33.3%, not 50%. JFYI
@@jonnyyounger4285 just FYI, 1000lbs is 50% of 2000lbs, so the 3000lb sentra is 50% heavier than the 94 sentra. You are using the new weight as the datum point, but that's incorrect since he is saying 50% MORE. if you were to say the 94 car weights less, then it indeed would weight 33% less than the present sentra.
Not trying to be a snarky jerk, but he was right
@@ScopedDawg Not snarky at all, but in your statement you are comparing yours @ 2000 to a new one @ 3000, not Scotty's comment. That remains a 33% difference. I just like accuracy, but this isn't important in the end. We both love Scotty and that's the key thing. Have a good day, sir.

Great. I just bought a 2019 Tundra about five hours before watching this. I think I made the right move anyway.
I have a 2018 focus st, just picked up a 01 f150 4x4 for $3500 and absolutely love it. Has 230k miles and already threw on 3k miles in the first few weeks.
I drive a 2019 f150 daily , I love it. When I need a truck , I use my 93 gmc Sonoma. That F 150 costs too much to beat up. Its like a Town Car.. When I go to cruise nights I roll in my 77 F100 Custom .

🤷😬😫 -how it must've been for the owner✔️ 😁🍻
Hey Scotty, I am a Historian and a life long Ford pickup enthusiast. I just wanted to point out a couple of tweaks in this video. At 6:13 you were discussing the 7th generation F-150, but displayed a picture of a 9th generation F-150 truck. Not only that, but the 9th generation F-150 was actually produced from 1992 - 1996, but the F-250 and 350 of that generation were produced until 1997. The 10th generation F-150 actually started in 1997 with an overall of the typical square body design. While the F-250's and 350's were skipped a year in production, and were not seen again until 1999 with the new "Superduty" as they are tagged. Except there were a few rare F-250's made in 1998 that had the body of a 10th generation F-150. Another thing, at 8:05 you referred to that truck as a "supercab", when it was actually a crew cab truck. The crewcabs have the full 4 doors on a truck, while the supercabs are also known as the extended cab with suicide doors. Other than that, great video as always Scotty!
Don’t forget how when talking about the first get here showed the second, then showed the first for third and got multiple years and equipment in them confused. Ford only used the F-1/2/3/4.... badging from 48-52 then changed to the F-100 but went to F-250/350... in 53, I have a 95 bronco, 79 f150, and a 55 f250 and am a huge ford pickup fan
Toyota Tacoma’s are dreamy, their hold their value so well.
Yea but have no power!
No power, drum brakes, and now mostly non Japanese parts....NO THANK YOU!!!
And considering resale value means you plan on selling it if need be. Give it a couple years and ranger resale will be equal or higher since they have frames that wont fail and proven engine with real power. Not hating, i love tacomas too. World scene, ranger or tacoma is basically the only decision you need to make.
I'm not selling a kidney to buy a undersized and underpowered truck. I'll stick with my blue oval workhorses.
The F-150 is a truck that Lady Liberty approves 👏
Lady liberty is the idol of a pagan God. Did you know that?
@BR-P-2001 // believe the lie if you wish. the fact is it's a massive idol of a pagan god. look it up, not hard to find. you've been duped.
@@noone3734 whether its pagan or not, liberty is a good thing.
Happy 2018 Ford Raptor owner here & love it, it's like driving a transformer.
Nice history lesson... I'm still buying a Tundra though. I don't care if it 4 mpg's, all I know is it will last. I would rather pay $5,550 on gas a year on a Tundra than paying $5,000 in one day on a new Transmission for an F-150 and still pay around $4,500 on gas a year. The ecoboost is efficient, but not to the point where I would want to give up a reliable Truck.
I got a friend with a 93 4x4 F-250 with the 7.3 international idi non turbo diesel with over 2.7 million miles on it and it's all original. It's his daily driver. The truck has been all over the US and Mexico.
That was a great Ford commercial ♥️
Ford needs to keep their game up and watch out for those 10 speed automatics.
Ford and gm codesigned that transmission. Is that a joke?
@@cdawg3506 they did but ford threw out all gm stuff on it gm was doing a front wheel drive 10 speed and ford hated it I love my 10 speen in my f150 it's so quick

Among the faults : Thin Colonial White paint that was single-stage and oxidized easily, an exhaust bracket that rusted away easily and created a hard-to-find rattle, shocks that wore out quickly, a gas tank that rusted through in about 6 years, various things designed to require special tools such as the Torx 40 screw used on the Upper Intake Manifold that required a extra-long Torx-40 socket from Snap-On Tools to reach it , A stabilizer bar link and bolts that was left off at the factory , a suspension part that caught on the steering linkage in turns, door lock actuators that were vulnerable to rusting from condensation dripping in and required a pop-rivet tool to replace , a factory defective ignition modulator that popped , a funny cooling system that had to be bled correctly to get the bubble out of its tummy by removal of a hose if you changed the coolant, a problematic E-40D transmission that was only used on two model years of the F-150 , a headlight switch prone to frying ( you had to buy a tougher upgraded replacement that required soldering to install and the wires on the replacement were not color coded . The alternator plug could fry so you had to use an upgraded plug when you replaced the Alternator . They discontinued the brand new wiper motors in favor of selling reman junk that had so many problems that they stopped selling the remans and made you buy a later new wiper motor and an adapter kit to put it on the 1991 . Ignition switch recall . My oil pan gasket leaked and what a bear to replace ! Lots more . They discontinued parts such as the computer over the years so planned obsolescence made you buy another truck .
Toyota Tundra is what I have now . Nuff said !
Who else has an F-150?
Unfortunately I do. 😒
I got a 05 f150 😆
Curtis why unfortunately

Been in the shop too many times. It's my third one. Probably my last. Its an ok truck now that I finally got the transmission fixed but it's no better than other brand trucks I've had.
My farthers second truck bought 5 grand put 7k in for brand new Engine and Trany runs like tramp
Scotty you have a great voice for this, I really enjoy these ones.
Scotty, this was a great tribute chronicling the F-Series pick up truck.
Thank you for a job well done!
Mechanics love the F150...They make lots of money fixing them.
Keep dreaming
Yup, Scotty. Ford is one of the best. Ford f250 is my favorite truck. Just got 420K runs like a ⏰.
my f250 made it to 270k then I gave it to my son in college ... he killed it ... still got $3,000 for it
420k km or miles? That's impressive
The welds on the exhaust of our 04 F250 blew off in 09 and every time we weld it back together it will just blow off in a different place a few months later
@@maxhuhn412
I replace all exhaust pipes when the original fails with stainless and it is over ... no more worries
Runs like a alarm crock
Damn, they paid him good 👌
I've owned 2 chevys, 2 dodges and 11 FORD trucks
Ford # 1 , never had a major problem or been left walking with a Ford.!
Visually as well as audibly pleasing, and informative! Fantastic video Scotty!
Love Joe Pesci giving vehicle advice and I LOVE my 2011 F-150 LIMITED!
Ford: been there, done done that, I'll pass . On my second Tundra in 14 years. I put over 260,000 miles on my 2005 which I sold to buy a 2020 model.
Yep I cant agree. I had a 2012 Tundra 71000 miles air injection system failure 2100.00 dollars. I trade it for a 2015 f150 which has over a 120000 miles and no repairs except maintenance. I just sold my 96 Ranger 415000 miles on it. Only repairs 2 clutches in over 20 years. I got a 87 f150 4.9 I use for dump runs and to haul firewood it has over 200000 miles and still runs as good as any truck I ever owned. I got a Toyota but its a 93 Supra...great car.
347,000 on my f150, 22 years of towing heavy loads as a work truck everyday! Still going and making money! My ford rangers had 250,00 miles on them when we sold them. And we often overloaded and over towed with them.
My Dads F150s transmission went out at only 115K miles. They're not better than Tundras.
The sad thing is that toyota doesn't make a hd truck..
‘94 Ranger with 190k. Weak 2.3L that just won’t stop. Burns no oil. Same manual transmission. Run around truck. Only gets 21 mpg though.
I pretty sure we’ve been “ Sold Out”
My cousin was a tech at ford and swears by them. My 07 heavy payload package rides so smooth. Im thinking of buying a platinum or limited as my daily.
I drive a Silverado but definitely appreciate the F 150 . As long as there’s no ecoturd engine.
I thought the same about them, until I drove one
Meh no matter the engine chevy Silverado cant hold Fords v8 or v6 😂
I have a theory that he was held for against his will to make this video
All you have to do is look at all the recalls and TSB technical service bulletins and look at all the problems they are having with the engines and transmissions and tell me how good a truck they are. Then compare that to the tundra. If your truck is in the shop it’s not making you money. It’s all about cost of ownership.
I can't keep up to your video output Scotty. So many to catchup everyday.
Just because McDonald's sells the most burgers doesn't mean they have th best burgers.
Lol
Comparing McDonald’s to a pick up truck is not a fair comparison. I’m not saying Ford is the best but they put the competition to shame often on trucks.
@Bryan Charles never said I was a Chevy or Dodge fan, I'm just saying you can't say one is hands down the best; they all have their pros and cons.
At 5:09 you have a picture of a 1940s pickup calling it a third gen 57-60
Yeah, i saw that and got really confused. 😂
Yeah and he put a 9th gen as a 7th gen
I have a Mercury Grand Marquis which is a jelly bean type truck when you check the trunk out. I've bragged about you using my car on your channel to this day scotty!
I just love all of dislikes of people who've never owned an F-150 and got suckered into buying something different
What do you mean when you say “better than Toyota”??? In what respect?
The Real Estate Vet every respect
Better MPGs for sure!
My father in law bought a 2012 tundra. Had to trade it in the very next year for a silverado so he could tow his 5th wheel. The tundra just couldn't handle it.
You must be new around here.
T M H HD?
Yea that was a black 1995 Lighting in the early 80s spot. sorry
Yeah I noticed that but it's a minor issue but at least the info is correct
I caught that as well. Partially due to I had an 81 F150 back in the day...lol
Scotty's editor slipped uo
Managed my company's vehicle fleet for about 10 years...we had an 84 F150, a 90 F150, and a 92 F250, among others...I caught that too.
'95 F-350, and STILL my daily driver.
I LOVE my truck!
There are some things you can't beat in this world...a good and reliable woman and the F150...I just love mine
this guy is the most wholesome man on RUclips.
Wholesome ?
Had a 2013 F150 SC with 4WD V8 and a 2017 Tacoma TRD 4x4. Toyota had better quality, but overall the F150 was much better overall, including a Fun to drive , comfort , capability and surprising fuel economy for its size.
big bee okay a Nomex Flight suit
I bought a Tundra new in 2007, still runs fine. Not the best designed truck but amazing 5.7L engine is hard to beat. But I live in the big city. If I moved to a small town I'd be better off with a Ford. More likely to find a Ford dealer and parts in small town USA, and less likely to get shot at.
This is where I disagree with Scotty. My dad has an F150 and I have two Tundras. My dad's F150s transmission went out at 115K miles while my original Tundra still has its original transmission and is at 250K miles. I eventually gave that Tundra to my dad and he is using that one for work after he sold the F150. I drive an 07 Tundra with 210K miles and it's a tank. Tundras are far better than F150s.
Just got one and I’m loving it
Still have my 2013 raptor 🤩 still runs like a dream too.
My 2011 Ford F150 has 172000 miles, still going strong. Best vehicle I have EVER bought.
I owned a ‘09 platinum for 113k miles and traded it in for a cant resist rebate and trade in value to get a 2019 XLT. I love the coyote 5.0 and aluminum body. Not sure 10 speed was necessary.
Wait this isn’t a 94’ Celica
@@merc-ni7hy but witch still drives tho? Toyota
0:39 I bet Scotty wanted to say "40 years" so bad
My dad who’s successful mechanic has been a Chevy guy all life (his baby is his 67 camero) but when it’s come to the last 10 years he’s owned nothing but Ford Trucks for quality reasons!
Where’s all my fifth gen fans? 🙋🏻♂️ I drive a ‘72 F100 and absolutely love it!
I’m surprised that nobody mentioned about oil consumption in 2018+ F150, the rattle noise during deceleration, noise comes from bellhousing, vacuum leak, noise from leaf springs.
Korean vs Japanese quality? Are the Koreans closing the gap? Love the new Hyundai Palisade.
They are indeed, while the Japanese become weaker. Toyota seems to have lost their way. Hyundai was the most innovative producer in the last few years (regular market). Their design is about the most attractive on the market and the price / quality / reliability report is probably best. Like 5 years ago I won't even consider a KIA or a Hyundai. Tomorrow I might buy one.
I just bought a Kia Sorento. Nice ride. I think they have addressed all the engine issues they had..
I added this video to my Favorites playlist. I like and drive Ford f250. Thanks a lot Scotty.
I couldn't tell you how many of those twin I-beam axles and spindles I helped manufacture at a little plant in Leroy New York back in the F-150's heyday .. Those were the good old days of car and truck manufacturing.
