After much research and being a heavy mechanic for over 35 years owning various brands of trucks, I opted for a F-350 Tremor with the 7.3 engine. This is a proven engine that's been ran in Blue Bird school buses for quite awhile with very good results. It's a "heirloom" type engine made to last if maintained too. With the cast iron block, six bolt aluminum heads, forged steel crank and bottom oilers under the pistons...this engine will go the distance. Ford finally fixed the idle oil pressure that was causing problems too. For many, the power is needed but not enough to warrant a diesel...the 7.3 fills that need...besides that, the thickness of the cylinder block makes it sweet for a future rebuild if one wants to pursue boring one out...tons of cylinder wall!
C,mon man. Even Fords ceo, Jim Farley said quality and warranty issues were eating the profits they made from sales. They definitely have a quality problem that they are trying to solve.
Yep, he threatened to take bonuses away from mgmt of they didn't get quality under control, which meant Ford was spending some serious coin on warranty work.
GM and Chevy trucks are currently the top sellers in the market, while Ford's sales are declining. It's clear that I wouldn't invest in an $80,000 truck that incorporates excessive plastic, even in the higher trims.
I just bought my first ford super duty in 22 years. I'm impressed to far. Only time will tell. The workforce in America has taken a huge hit post COVID and suppliers are always cutting corners. It's a combination of those factors, however, it's the follow up care that counts. It's not a question of "if", but rather "when" there's an issue how it is taken care of by the manufacturer and delawrship.
@richkummert2123 Same here I waited 20 years and got my truck the way I wanted, ordered it and had to wait only 4 months and couldn't be happier.Good luck with your's.
🚨2024 F450 CAUGHT ON FIRE! Literally custom ordered a 2024 Limited and within 5 day less than 300 miles the dash board popped and started smoking and then a flame came out….On the side of the road with a fire extinguisher was not something I was planning on doing…that was 3.5 months ago…FORD WILL NOT REPLACE THE TRUCK! I have attorneys involved and my insurance company is fighting them, disgraceful. No modifications were done to the truck..
I have owned all three American brands. What I have noticed about the Fords is that they are more solidly built. When all brands are new, for the most part, they are tight and feel solid. As they age, you start hearing the squeaks and rattles. The Fords stay together better.
@CornFed_3 I will not go to battle for any brand. I am simply giving my observation from 67 years on this earth and the many vehicles I have owned. I currently own a 2023 F superduty. Prior to that, I had a 2020 Ram 2500. The Ram wasn't bad, but the body and suspension of the Ford is far superior.
My '19 f250 had death wobble at under 20k miles. Truck was babied its whole life. They replaced the steering stabilizer which had a recall as well as the steering drag link which they said had a bad joint. No problems since but it did stiffen up the steering. I have been considering downsizing but this truck has the gas 6.2 which is known to be reliable, no auto start/stop, regular gauges, and tows my trailers amazing (4.30s in the rear). I feel like a new truck is going to bring more tech and problems so I am going to hang on to it a little longer.
One of my nephews who was working for a Cat dealer and they had bought a small fleet of F250's, I believe 2018 model year and equipped with the 6.2 and crew cab short box. I know that at least two if not more of them were experiencing the high speed wobble and one of them was my nephews. He had numerous horror scares with the high speed wobble, hit a bump in the road, frost heave, or a bridge transition and that could trigger it going into one of those violent non controlling episodes. And it started doing this at relatively low mileage similar to yours. Various steering shocks were thrown at it and yes each time that would mask it until it wore and then would have to be replaced again. But I have to say that those trucks would not always be babied as they would have to do runs out into bush roads ( pounded up gravel roads ) and so it was not the babied life like your truck. The problem is that Ford would do as little as possible to address it, pretend that all the joints are within spec but hmmm, whos spec ?. Believe it or not, that truck went through two sets of front wheel unit bearings, changed out at around 35000 miles each time, I don't know if it was because of the abuse the high speed wobble placed on them or what was going on. I also don't know what spec of front springs was on that truck as he said it rode something awful on the front, its possible it could have had the snow plow prep springs but that was never looked into to find out that curious question. Engine and transmission and diffs were all fine, no issues with them in the time he had it. For all the hair pulling experiences he had with this high speed wobble, it only had 72000 miles when he handed it back to Ford for the last time as he decided to switch jobs but Ford "surprisingly" found numerous front end steering parts were needing replacement when he brought it into them for the last time to get looked over before it got handed to the next employee at Cat. I don't mean to rag all over your Ford, its more of a yes you are not the only one that has had this high speed wobble issue. Its a matter of keeping at Ford or after any warranty an independent shop you may trust more to correct any wear issues, possibly add more caster into the front end if it can be done properly and make sure your steering shock is in good order. Gong newer than what you have, that is a total coin toss too and end up wishing you could go back and have hung onto this truck. Vehicles these days as I sigh, its frustrating and they are so insanely priced.
@@techs1smh13 Yes, I believe its a fair part of the triggering issue and that not only goes for a solid axle Ford but any solid axle vehicle, so the older GM 4x4 trucks that had a similar issue, Jeeps to this day if modified with a lift that does not correct the reduction of caster introduced into the front knuckles. The question is why has Ford not changed their setup to increase the caster ... I believe some of that has to do with increased steering effort that an increase in caster will cause when turning corners.
If i had to buy a diesel truck today this is why I would buy a Ford. Aluminum body (can plow all winter and not worry about body rot), diesel has steel pistons, can get a f450 with a bed that has awesome turning radius, huge brakes. What youve shown with the cummins lifters i wouldnt go near it, and gm bodies are still made out of steel that rots.
Aluminum can experience corrosion. The 6.7 still has severe CP4 issues(yes, even 23/24 trucks according to Flying Wrenches), and a few other issues. They all have their issues for sure.
I love the huge way Ford allows configurations of their trucks. BUT the removal of certain features while not also adjusting prices(instead they still are rising) is not a good look, especially on Lariat.
Love my sonar and camera on the tailgate. It makes so much sense to have it but yeah it already has a recall. I keep mine in a garage so not to worried about it but i'll fix it myself no steelership is going to touch it.. Well when the fix is available lmao...
Manufactures are cutting corners in quality parts to maintain profitability. The auto industry needs a full reset. Trucks are meant for work not grocery getters…let’s get back to the basics.
In 2023, GM sold 839,074 full-size and heavy-duty trucks, which was more than Ford's 750,789 F-Series trucks. Today’s trucks are more powerful with more technology than ever before. Quality is the trade off.
I had a 1995 F-150 when I was 16 and will never own a Ford again. It was rusted out and falling apart by 80k miles. I have now had 2 ram 2500 with the cummins engine with few issues other than the 48rfe being rebuilt. I really like my gmc canyon denali as my daily driver. I'm a RAM or GM Guy all day.
Ford needs to get the panel alignment issues straightened out. That's my biggest complaint on my 2024 along with the truck leaning to the drivers side!
i had a 2001 f250 eith the 7.3, just had a 2020 f250 tremor, and now i have a 2025 f250 tremor. i love them. they are superior in my opinion. of course all manufacturers have issues here and there. all i know is everyone i know with the 6.7 powerstroke has been happy, and they have significantly more power than the other brands too. i know someone thst just bought a brand new duramax, and the engine blew and had to be replaced at 3,500 miles. shit happens though. i also had a 2016 chevy silverado 1500, and had to replace the transmission at 40k miles. every brand has their issues, but i really dont think ford is any different. i think my 2025 f250 is a little better quality than my 2020 was with finishes and interior
I have a 2025 super duty so far so good. I think there’s reasons behind why they cheapened out things not just because I think there are reasons behind maybe safety or durability such as active x. Maybe the interior lights in the back when the trucks on they removed because it was a distraction to the driver. Maybe they made the truck more built and took away things to make it more solid. We don’t see that we just see what’s on the interior and exterior, but not all around.
I purchased a 2024 F350 Platinum and with only 535 miles. I had the check engine light come on and the truck spent 3 days in the shop trying to figure out what caused the check engine light to come on.
The seats are made by a supplier but QC should have caught that defect. It would be easy though to miss it. Normally you have a qc inspector on each side of the vehicle towards the end of the production line. So it would be legit for them to think its not mismatched when they dont see both sides
Just went from 2019 to a 2024 and the 19 was a better truck. The quality of the truck was better, less rattles right off the bat on the 19 the 24 is just soft and it has more squeaks and sounds. Power running boards now just come down as a pair vs side to side, its changed and it sucks. The amount of rattles the 24 has, also the slow windows roll and stuff.

6.7L Powerstroke is made in-house at Ford's plant in Chihuahua Engine Plant in Mexico. The visible quality in these trucks are way down compared to 2024, nothing is tested like it was 20-30 years ago. GM is having all kinds of failures with both engines and transmissions for all kinds of their models, that is a big deal. They move production save a bunch of money but then raise the price screw these companies.
My dad, 85 years old, never ever owned Ford. He always said, since I remember myself, Ford was always known for building quantity and not quality. That is why I will not invest in one. Having said that, overall, most trucks quality went down in resent years.
The business model nowadays is only pay as little as possible and make as much as possible, period. The dynasty family owned corporations is gone. These corporations are conglomerates with several hands in the cookie jar. There is very little one ownership companies and even so their mindsets have change accordingly to adapt to the new model of business. So if you can buy a similar part that is made of lesser quality material and is cheaper but looks the part then you will. The dice is being rolled that it will last long enough to warrant the price. Unfortunately the extra profits made are going to shareholders and executives and not the majority of help that made these profits possible. So as long as willfully obtuse YOLO minded buyers keep paying exorbitantly high prices for subpar made materials then unfortunately NOTHING will change. The one element that is sorely lacking nowadays in our society is DISCIPLINE ✌🏽🇺🇲
I think it’s just the luck of the draw with new trucks on having major issues anymore. That can be a good thing in a way. Because it use to be when a truck had a common problem, just about everyone built would have the same problem. Now it seems that just because there is some trucks having issues yours might not have it. As for the mismatched parts, well that’s not a great look BUT it’s humans putting these things together so that definitely happens.
I'm curious to know why you bought a GMC or Dodge instead of the Ford truck if the Ford truck is so good. Was pricing the only issue or were there other things? I know every person has their own needs and desires in selecting a truck. Thank you
I had a 2018 F350 Powerstroke and regret trading it for a 2022 F350 Powerstroke. The quality just wasn't the same with fit and finish, handling, among other things. I've been a Ford fan for over 20 years and wasn't impressed with the issues with this truck, maybe it was a lemon but decided to go to a 2025 GMC AT4 Duramax and I'm very pleased. Better handling, better ride, better fit and finish, yes the seats aren't as cushy as the Ford's but I find they support you better. All in all I'm pleased with my decision to switch brands.
@@jasonschweitzer8372, agreed as Ford quality has been abysmal for almost a decade now, even on higher trims. Ram and GMC offer much better quality over Ford by a long shot.
JB your around 7 years behind with ford , since 2017 and up they been awful and made me say goodbye in 2019 to Ram and theres a reason why Ram has the best build quality hands down and awarded as well. 👌I wouldn't ever bye a ford or Gm product knowing that Ram is the most awarded most reliable pickup RAM-1500 KING OF TRUCKS 👌
@@CornFed_3 GM is an Auto company Ford is an auto company. Both have stock on the NYSE. GM has a better truck strategy selling about 16% more full sized trucks in 2024.
All trucks have gone down in quality.
I was going to say the same thing. I’m a GM guy, but this video could be made for any truck manufacturer
I agree 100%
Agree 110%
Not ford ford makes the best quality trucks ever only thing they do is cut cost by removing options

Cummins lifters generally aren’t a problem at all. The vast majority of failures are factory defects and incorrect oil viscosity use.
One thing I notice about a lot of late model Ford trucks is the door alignment. The front door or rear is usually higher or lower than the other.
