I just bought the exact same truck in Antimatter blue and absolutely love it! Was just scrolling videos of the truck and heard you mention sport bikes and was like “heyyyy my man!” And felt I had to leave a comment. Love that color btw 🔥
I just bought a 2023 STX SuperCrew for $43,500 from Parks Ford in Tampa Florida. I love the 2.7 liter 6 cylinder. It was a brand new left over, super, super happy with the purchase ♥️.
He not lying i had mine only a week now with the same 2.9%. All together it was $48,000 same trim level but it came from S.C but i stay in GA. What really made it $48,000 is the sales tax $3500. I was almost mad a few minutes ago i noticed the dropped down bed line on the bed door was not bolted completely down. i thought they sold me a lemon till i seen yours is what it looks like without the bed liner in it 😂😂😂😂😂. Keep up the good content so i can learn from you
Just bought one last week with a 5.0 in the same color. Love everything about it so far. Edit: forgot to mention, I got a 1.9% interest rate that I couldn’t pass up. Great deal.
Damn that is a nice color, I haven't seen one in person yet. I just got a 23' in avalanche! I was looking at mid-sized trucks and I am so glad I got another F-150
Damn yah I wish I had them. Kind of expensive to add after the fact. I did see some STX with fogs on the lot but they were slightly more expensive and had the bigger 20” wheel package.
I have the same rims on my 23 XLT Sport. For a low end trim wheel they're really good looking! Love that color. I find the blues pair really nice with those rims. Mines atlas blue metallic
Hell yeah man! Wish I could have sprung for the XLT. But was trying to keep the price down as much as possible. And the STX really packs a punch for value. I love the atlas blue metallic. I had a 16 f150 in blue flame. Very similar. Absolutely loved it!
Yeah I just started looking at the STX about a month ago & I’m now considering trading my 2023 Taco TRD Sport for one 5.0L around 44k. I luv the truck! Yours looks great! I luv your color!!
Same(ish) truck, same dealership?, avalanche with a little different set up. I really wish mine had the center console like yours does. So much so I might look to upgrade/replace it somehow. You also got a better deal then I did. I am still really happy with it. Maybe I'll cya on the track:) Thanks for the vid.
Bought the same truck in the avalanche color this week. Mine was 42k and msrp was 52k. They won't give the 2.9k financing with the rebates where I was so I just took 8% and plan to refinance with my bank or just pay it off with cash.
Found my best value black friday👍 6'7" bed was hard to find w/ crew for the dirt scooters/yaks and I prefer the 5.0 V8 ,currently averaging 19mpg. I'm really missing my 2011's fog lamps though. Went with Covercraft seat covers, waiting on them to be made. Also ordered the pull tether to access storage behind rear 60 seat.
Trade in my Acura integra for this truck is great value and is more quiet than the Integra. I am getting 19 miles by gallon in Miami with heavy traffic. Excellent truck for the money but I am fell in love with the jeep gladiator now.
Dude I wanted an intergra so bad back in my high school days. They look so good. The looks still hold up today! And I agree this truck is so crazy quiet. I absolutely love it. Those gladiators are sexy AF. I must admit!
While I do love the interior and technology ford has in there trucks. My faith will always be with Toyota. I drive a 21 Tundra and while not the most gas efficient it’s extremely reliable.
I do love the tundras. They look so good and resale and reliably is top notch. I just drive so much I needed the better mpg. But I can’t hate on the Toyota.
God, I miss the days when I was so simple. Are used to love my Honda and would’ve been happy with anything but then I spoiled myself and bought a German luxury car, and now I could never go back. I would love so much to be able to get a normal car but they just feel so cheap and crappy now. :/
I'd choose for over Toyota for dependability anyway I have a 2004 f150 with 472k miles and no problems and I have a 2015 f150 with 267k and it's also fine and I had a 1997 f150 that I sold but that had 420k miles also and ran fine
Nice looking truck. I got a question the 2.7 on the Chevy Silverado is extremely noisy. How is it on the Ford? And I have to admit 42k for a 2 WD is not that bad.
Thanks dude! So I have not rode in the 2.7 Chevy motor. But the ford 2.7 ecoboost is not very noisy in my opinion. Nice and quiet especially compared to my 2020 Ram hemi. It had a very noisy and annoying tick in the motor every morning when I would start it up. Did some research and seems like all hemis do it. So going back to ford is very refreshing. No weird noises at all
The STX has been a great buy for a long time and they have a tremendous amount of payload for a half ton. I currently have a 2014 Lariat with pretty much every option, but these new XL STX's are equipped extremely well for what they are and honestly there isnt much its missing other than leather vs my Lariat. The Ram's do ride better in my experience vs a stock F150. I have had probably 8 Ram's as rentals. But a $400 set of Bilstein shocks brings the F150 pretty much on par with Ram.
@@sojourner2013 Bilstein 5100's are a cheap upgrade and make a pretty solid difference in ride. The stock shocks on the F150's have been notoriously bad for a long time, especially the rear shocks.
Truck prices wouldn't have been so crazy if people had stopped buying them for $60-100K. Dealers are just now getting the hint as they are losing their ass on so much inventory in their lots collecting dust.
@@Furncycles no way?! That’s dope. I measured the bed and was slightly too short for my r7 but I didn’t physically try it. Maybe at an angle would have worked.
@@dustinbjohnson, my tires extend beyond the tailgate, but where the tire rests on the tailgate is directly below the axle so plenty of room to go. It's not for everyone, but I love mine. Enjoy yours!
Sorry about the delayed reply, i'd say do the first oil change at 1k to 2k, and then an oil change at 5k, and then 5k after that each time. Rotate tires every 10k. up to you though, that's just what i'd say to do because your first oil change early gets all the junk out of the engine from break in@@dustinbjohnson
what's up with americans and trucks? Not asking in an insulting manner, I"m honestly intrigued. Do you guys need trucks or you just the look of them? Or is it just a culture thing? :P
I can only speak for myself. But I couldn’t live with out one. I use it to haul my motorcycle to the track, my mountain bike to the mountains, and my drums to the gigs 🤘🍻
@@sojourner2013 I agree man. Used car prices are way too high right now. With high interest rates on used vehicles also. The new STX came out about the same overall price for me as it would have been to buy out the lease on my used Ram. Plus almost twice the gas mileage. It was an absolute no brainer for me. 🍻

I just went from a 2013 ram to this same Ford.
Everything you describe I can relate.
Miss my ram but liking my new coyote engine
This is an amazing truck. Trying to find one myself with the 5.0, congrats!
I’ve been researching this truck. The 5.0 seems pretty amazing!
Damn that is a nice color, I haven't seen one in person yet. I just got a 23' in avalanche!
I was looking at mid-sized trucks and I am so glad I got another F-150
Just bought a 2023 couple months ago in white with the V8 Coyote. It’s wild man. I got the 1.9 % rate. Couldn’t pass it up. Great truck
My stx has the fogs. I also have parking sensors tho too with the V8. Maybe it's a package
Damn yah I wish I had them. Kind of expensive to add after the fact. I did see some STX with fogs on the lot but they were slightly more expensive and had the bigger 20” wheel package.

Nice truck!
My Ram 1500 Hemi 4x4 has the 3.21 rear axle. Does very well on fuel. With the 33 gallon take I get close to 700 mile range on trips.
Thanks bro! Man my hemi with 33 gallon tank… range was under 500 miles. And I would baby that thing 💔
@@dustinbjohnson likely had the 3.92 rear gears.
Until it starts having lifter issues
Yeah I just started looking at the STX about a month ago & I’m now considering trading my 2023 Taco TRD Sport for one 5.0L around 44k. I luv the truck! Yours looks great! I luv your color!!

Thanks homie!! 🍻
The stx with the 20” rims come with fog lights. I got the same as yours because I thought the 18” rims look better than the 20” spokes.
I saw that after the fact. But I agree with you man. I think the 18s look better. The 20s just didn’t do it for me.
Bought the same truck in the avalanche color this week. Mine was 42k and msrp was 52k. They won't give the 2.9k financing with the rebates where I was so I just took 8% and plan to refinance with my bank or just pay it off with cash.
Oh damn! That’s a bummer. I got the 2.9% with all the rebates. I was pumped. Not sure if it has to do with the dealer and the state I live in??

Hell yah dude!! I’m looking for good seat covers. I’ll check those out!!
I have the same bed 6.7 bed. Got it by accident a couple months ago and 1.9% rate
6.7 bed is the only way to go.

I was gonna buy this truck but im gonna wait for the 24 stx,12 inch screen and column shifter 4x4..hopefully theyll offer the 1.9% rates next year
Those new 24s look awesome! I’m jealous.
Yea. I'm going to wait for 24. They have no choice but to offer 1.9 ASAP

The new Toyotas are having many issues
Autolock feature you were talking about can be turned off if you like
Been messing around with that. I really dig the auto lock. Especially at stop lights haha
I love that truck
Thanks dude!! Super happy with it so far
How are you liking the truck ?
Check out wet okle seat covers if you wanna keep that thing fresh
Oh sick! I’ll look them up. Thanks dude 🍻
@@dustinbjohnson I’ve had a set for 10 years now and they’re still like new, look and feel factory. It’s neoprene so it’s waterproof.

Concerned with Ram MPG and couldn't get more than 16mpg?! Lets go bigger tires is not the right move!!
But it looked so good 😂
badass.
Thanks dude!! Now let’s find you one 🍻

What was the OTD price?
42 and some change
I am in love with my area 51 blue 23 stx! we have a facebook group with 172 people in it that is just for this color. I would love for you to join!

New vehicles are never a “best value”
Right now in my situation it was. Better interest rate and full warranty
STX is a great value for a new vehicle. I bought mine as a demo with a discount but would've bought new. Bought month before covid hit.
Gas price in TX went down to $2.23. Property taxes got slashed by governor this year. Cheaper living down hear bro. 😁
2.7 is a great engine. Well done!
