I talked to a Ford engineer a couple years ago when they first introduced that exhaust brake system. He told me it works in conjunction with the ABS system and the wheel speed sensors basically if your foots on the brake and the truck's not slowing down its scales up the exhaust brake based on load. It's not like the old school exhaust brakes.
I drive a 2019 f550 for work. It's a service truck and weighs around 18500 lbs. The exhaust brake is kinda needed with that big of a truck. Also have a buddy who has a 2019 f450 limited that tows with it all over the country. Tows great.
Agree on the Ford exhaust brake, it’s nowhere as useful as the Cummins. I was using a friend’s 2019 f-550 extended cab mason dump with about 13k of stone in the back and I was actually impressed with the little squat it had. I thought it would have been more. The acceleration under load was decent, but the lack of exhaust brake was very disappointing even when tow haul was on compared to my older year Cummins. Congrats on picking up the 2 new rigs.
You might recheck that with the 2023-2024 Ford Heavy Duty’s. I picked up a F350 SRW 6.7HO Platinum Tremor to tow a 5th wheel RV 19k pounds. The exhaust brakes work like they should. That said I haven’t towed with the new RAM’s. In the mountains it will hold and slow that weight down no problem at 38-45% exhaust brake being used. I probably should have gotten the F450 Dully but I like the Tremor for when I never go Offroad 😂
The Ford exhaust brake is really weird. It’s almost like it kicks in harder with more load. Mine will feel super weak with no load but then it will hold back a 15k trailer pretty well on steep slopes. But it does need to be revved up.
When you use the engine brake and the tow haul mode combined it seems like it's more on demand, like decelerating down a hill it's more responsive and effective.
Not gonna lie, bought a 21 450 right at the beginning of last year. Best damn work rig I’ve ever had. That thing has been from the top to bottom of I75 under load so many times I can’t even count.
U had me at Ford...But I do love my Platinum...Work horse hands down. .. But I wished I bought a xlt or a ram. My Platinum always stresses me out cause it to nice... Your gonna love your work trucks guys...cheers and have a good time. .
Ford exhaust brake comes on full power when you apply some pedal. Mine will hold speed downhill with my dedicated on the trailer if you let off the throttle and if you give it some pedal it will slow the truck down with nothing but the exhaust brake.
That's has the same Dana M300 as the 450-550 chassis cabs. The Dana S110 and S135 stopped before the 2017 MY. Tow haul mode makes the engine brake more effective, by more aggressive downshifting and more tightly controlled torque converter lockup
Thank goodness! 😂😂 you had me super confused as to why there was another 450 on the channel when you just recently ordered your new 5500. I am glad that one came in quicker than expected as well. Congratulations to you. I am eager to see the process of what is to come. Keep up the great work.
All this money for new trucks but no money for a proper suspension? You should put a Carli backcountry setup on one of the Rams with a progressive leaf pack and air bags. Do a build video and then a review. Compare to stock and how much better the ride is.
Arent the f350 and 450 the same chassis. I believe front end is different? Dont take my word on it. Im a ram guy. Was reading about the 2 differences in those rigs. All depends on packages. So yes rear end should be similar to 350 since this isnt a cab chassis 450 truck
Best solution would be if an aftermarket company developed a driveline magnetic brake like they use on some school busses in certain markets. Then these fords would be the best overall trucks for towing.
It’s late and I’m not paying attention and my blood pressure is going up and my iPad is about to go through the wall I thought he was serious. You got me.
I thought you finally came to your senses but then I realized that it was April 1st. I do agree about the exhaust brake though it does suck because it's not a true Jacob's style engine brake like the Cummins has.
The difference is that Ford and GM use a Variable Vane turbo, does not change size just angles the vanes. The Dodge uses a Variable Gate turbo that changes size so you get instant spooling and tremendous braking. The 351 can provide 130 hp of braking, the new 300 can provide 175 hp of braking. I have seen my 351 hit 75 psi in brake mode.
Tbh the exhaust brakes on retail trucks aren’t that strong Until you get a cab and chassis truck and the exhaust brake is ALOT stiffer and more capable , but can’t compare to the rams exhaust brake And that truck has the better transmission The new 10 speed haven’t figured out there issues ! But congrats on the new Rams ! I have got 3 5500 flatbed’ / dump And a 5500 hauler couldn’t be happier !
We just bought a Ram Dually... we used your channel for some inspiration.. had a heart attack for a second thinking we should have maybe got an F450 instead.
THEY KNOW whose in charge when you pull up with 500 White Horse's with a plan and the equipment to get it done. Years of good hard honest services rendered to ride around like this. You did that. Now get back to work. Psalm 19
Dang I was just bout to hit unsubscribe then he said April fools!!! Lol great job on keeping us guessing!! The excavator throwing the skid steer in the pond last year was the first thing I thought when I seen the thumbnail!
engine brake not exhaust. not as good as the cummins, but thats about it. at least they arent built in mexico work play tv pulls 30000 lbs all the time.

Job foreman line killed me. Friend with F450 says truck “jake” brake functions best in tow hall mode.

I’ve had a bunch of 6.7 powerstrokes the exhaust brake sucks ass when you’re loaded heavy. Almost worthless. Great motor shit exhaust brake
More revs means more exhaust gas means more backpressure to hold the engine and the load
The Ram Exhaust brake on Auto does the same thing.
Sam you almost had me there for a minute. Then I realized you said awhile back that you ordered two trucks 🤣
Heck I must be the only person that was actually wanting to see this be true and see him add a ford to the fleet

You are so lucky to be able to spend time with you Dad and I like the truck
Thank you
I notice a little more aggressive braking when the tow haul mode is selected along with the engine brake

Just gotta find a good “pothole” to hit for the DEF to fall off maybe 🤷🏼♂️ exhaust brake would come alive
That is one gorgeous 450

🤣🤣🤣 Sam I laughed my ass off when I saw this 6 hours ago 🤣🤣🤣 I said hot damn you bought your uncle Mark a Ford 🤣🤣🤣🤣👍🏿
Convoy coming to Cali support them brother it's the people's convoy
The ol dealership wheel well paint spray I see 😆Anything steel will get rusted out bad in the north
It’s late and I’m not paying attention and my blood pressure is going up and my iPad is about to go through the wall I thought he was serious. You got me.
Put sulastic springs on it, the ride improves greatly. I would also put the weighted wheel between the rear tires, your tires will last much longer...
Rides great
😂😂😂 “ When you’re not going to tow anything but wanna look superior”
Damn you hahahahaha !!!! I was like nope, I’m not watching this shit and finally broke, only to be relieved lol
Hahah glad you watched it
I have a 2021 f250 and had 2019 f350 the exhaust brake works amazing loaded hit the break once and it’s will slow you down loaded going down a hill
I’ve driven and towed with fords. Brake needs work
Good one Sam😂, can’t wait to see them working it👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸
I watched the whole video, nice truck!
Which seats do you like better between the Ford and your '18 Laramie?
My 22 laramie are nice
Not quite as good as the last big prank you did🤣🤣 But I did get a little glimpse of hoss’ truck in the background!!
2018 Ford F450 with the 6.7 Powerstroke. This truck is a biodiesel engine.
I have a 17 f550 with a 5.9 24 valve cummins p-pump, not sure of transmission but proably a allison trans.
Subtle roast w.p.tv😅 I like that dude too! Respect to v belt for giving Walmart the🖕Amazon as well...
Work play is my boy
@@VBELTandSON damn good dude!
with the ford exaust brake u can leave it in drive and hit the down shift button and take gears away to better control the exhaust brake
That looked like Lakeview Oregon at your fuel stop
I thought you finally came to your senses but then I realized that it was April 1st. I do agree about the exhaust brake though it does suck because it's not a true Jacob's style engine brake like the Cummins has.
The 6.7 Cummins doesn't offer a "true Jacob's style engine brake" either. In this class of truck they're all exhaust brakes and not engine brakes.

The new 10 speed haven’t figured out there issues !
But congrats on the new Rams !
I have got 3 5500 flatbed’ / dump
And a 5500 hauler couldn’t be happier !
Gorgeous truck lil buddy
God bless it drive it in good health the red is just so pretty just wish they’d do a bed like the 450.
We just bought a Ram Dually... we used your channel for some inspiration.. had a heart attack for a second thinking we should have maybe got an F450 instead.
Prick... LOL. well played though. And we have to wait for another video on the new trucks..... killing me. hope the drive back was good.
Yep. You got me. Thank god you didn’t buy that pile 😂😂😂
If your gonna buy one you atleast need to buy the 10 speed
That’s why I left this thing there;$
@@VBELTandSON good decision I can’t drive my 17 and 19 now. Lol
I thought the joke was the 364 days a year he drives a dodge
I love my 450 and it turns as sharp as my tacoma
Oh lord not a Ford !! Awesome video 👍🏻 can’t wait to see your new truck’s 😬
Sam, I must admit that you got me because I forgot what day today is!
If only it was a 95-97, 7.3 Powerstroke dually.. (sigh)
Man the dinosaur 7.3 is awesome but underpowered like a 12 valve
@@nativeoutdoors1780 but simple, reliable, and legendary because of it.
@@kctyphoon tru tru, can't hotshot too much with them but they are perfect for lighter loads and great workhorses on farms
Tap the breaks in tow haul mode down hill and the exhaust brake will kick on just like my Pete tap the breaks so it downshifts and chirps the tires
I was going to say the same thing !
My exhaust brake comes on every time I back off the go pedal.
Should get us the paint code on a blue ram at 8:10!!! Lol
Congratulations my man
hook something heavy to it and keep in tow mode with exhaust brake on it will surprise you
Lol I’ve towed heavy with a ford. I was disappointed.
It does have that sway bar in the back! I wish the other 2 would do that!! 8) --gary
Where did you get your sunglasses
2022 has the refreshed interior with the 12" screen.
Same interior 17-22. Nothing different except a larger 12" only available on lariat and up models. Everything else is the same.
Thought you bought a real truck there for a minute lol
Exhaust break on my ‘15 F350 is the same way. I wish it was better
Fords would be killer with a solid brake
Turn the exhaust brake on and put it in tow/haul mode it’ll feel better
No it doesn’t lol. Sorry
I live in Nampa and that Walmart is my local one. Would have been cool to meet you guys.
Can't wait to see the new trucks! Especially a custom flatbed build with vbelt. Congrats on your new wheels
You finally got it
Fyi Ford no longer uses a third member rear differential in the 450 and 550 super duty
THEY KNOW whose in charge when you pull up with 500 White Horse's with a plan and the equipment to get it done. Years of good hard honest services rendered to ride around like this. You did that. Now get back to work. Psalm 19

I am pretty sure your 18 laramie has the easy out option also. I know our 2015 ram 1500 had it in the laramie package
Scared me on the Ford. Glad you are sticking with Ram. April is the fool and not you.
That button at 6:18 is for hill descent
Hahah yup
Does it feel like the truck cuts the power when you take off and have steering wheel turned?
Traction control.
Good one. Had me going for a minute.
I saw the title and thought wth? Then realized it was April fools day lol.
I was all excited about seeing the new rams
last year's April fool's joke was better.
That brought out the angry comments for sure 😂😂
Good one!😄😄
Dam the dodge man got a ford
The exhaust brake has two different settings...
And those both suck
Love my F350, but exhaust break is useless compared to Cummins
Furds…. Not for people who want to get stuff done on time.
great one! you had me...
It was kinda weird recognizing all the roads that you were on lol.
Can't wait to see the new truck
Enjoy all of the high gas prices man! Lol
Those are cheap compared to town
@@VBELTandSON Lol yea we are rocking 4.29 for normal and who knows what for diesel! Lol
Be careful with Theft my friend bought the same truck they stole it !
i was like WHY A FORD 450 ?
then i see it was posted yesterday, the 1st ...
Haha;)
2:24 “holy shit that’s a lot of black spray paint”
Title change, I should have bought a Ford F-450 vs. a Fiat built truck.
That’s a big negative little buddy
Dang I was just bout to hit unsubscribe then he said April fools!!! Lol great job on keeping us guessing!! The excavator throwing the skid steer in the pond last year was the first thing I thought when I seen the thumbnail!
Like hell you bought a Ford Sam
Definitely got me man
The only thing the frames are starting to break keep a eye on that
On the new ford's?
Haven’t Watch the video yet BUT YOU BAUGHT A WHAT¿ hahah
Shit, if you drove that Ford for a few days and hauled with it, you would probably trade that brand new Fiat you just bought. 😁
Naw lol
@@VBELTandSON Well, if you are ever on the east coast I will let you drive my 22 450 platty and we will find some loads to haul.
@@chadking2222 , your 450 is not rated for the loads the cab chassis 4500 Ram they just bought.
@@johnirwin1837 For payload capacity I agree but towing capacities are similar.
I said “he bought a fooooorrrrr oh wait. Aprils fools”
Thank God its April 1st.
Honestly had me fooled🤣
I love how they just sprayed black paint all under that F450 including the exhaust. I imagine its covering a lot of rust.
Used dealer sales tactic. Looks like shat to you & i, but to people that don't know better, it makes it look "new" and "pretty". 🙄
That's a undercoating option that ford offers to prevent rust. Works really well.
engine brake not exhaust. not as good as the cummins, but thats about it. at least they arent built in mexico work play tv pulls 30000 lbs all the time.
