The reason Ford doesn’t do a small rear door is because it’s not only significantly more difficult for ingress and egress of rear passengers due to the addition of a central B-pillar, but customers purchasing extended-cab vehicles are often looking for more interior cargo space beyond a regular cab and are likely only carrying the driver and passenger with infrequent rear passengers. For anyone regularly carrying rear par rangers, they make the full four-doors. Moreover, when you compare the rear door size of the Ford to Ram, it is much smaller while still providing the same rear leg room.

Hey Brian, I am sure you got it down by now but regarding the exterior handle; just put your hand in the “scoop” portion to unlock the truck (while not touching the exterior black button). When exiting the truck just tap the black button to lock. The way I have been getting around the double horn going off (while running and keys in hand) is leaving the keys in the vehicle and locking the truck. This is assuming you have the exterior key pad to get back in. Keep the videos coming.

12:41 I had the same issue too. I live in California and ended up buying my truck electronically from a dealer in Virginia. I actually found the truck on Autotrader and then confirmed on their website, and then called the dealer directly. At the same time, I actually had a dealer in California search all the inventory for me nationwide. They can do that at the dealers. I was specifically looking for a long bed in the exact truck I wanted. As it turns out, the dealer confirmed there were none in the western United States, so I focused my efforts on the eastern US. For one reason or another, at that time, I noticed there were some areas of unusually high inventory at much cheaper prices than other places, and those locations were in Montana, Wisconsin, Virginia, Maryland, and South Carolina.

It's not just $1080 for the LED headlights, but the $3255 Lariat Ultimate package required for the LEDs. Or the fact that you have to step up to a Lariat in the first place. An additional problem is the smallish gas tank on the ccsb. If you're towing, you'll be having to fill up every 150-250 miles depending if you're in the city or highway. But according the website, the ccsb has the 48 gallon tank for the gas engine, which they have not corrected even for the 2018 model year

I also wish ford offered vinyl seating on more trims than just XL. I am a work truck guy I have had several Ford F-350 xl, and several f450 xl. I don’t like how on the 17+ that fog lights are not even an option where on the 11-16 the oem fog lights could be added. On my current 17 super duty I had to go with a ranch hand full replacement bumper and brush guard which already had the cut outs for the fog lights and add my own fog lights to my truck. Don’t get me wrong I really like a lot of the extra features that you can get just by upgrading from an xl to and XLT........ BUT I hate cloth seats, I’m sweating my but off everyday and getting dirty day in and day out, I like being able to just wipe down the vinyl whenever need be. Leather is nice and luxurious but also requires a lot of maintenance and up keep constantly having to oil the leather and do that stuff to keep it from cracking. Just my opinion, I thought it was foolish to up grade to a XLT just to get fog lights. Also I would really like to have the full center console not because I like the console but because it would be very nice for the rear passengers to have some ac vents also but that is not even offered in an xl. Quad beam headlights are not offered in any trim less that a lariat which I’m my opinion is just a way for them to convince you to get a higher trim package. and let’s not get started with carpet, again this is just my opinion but I really don’t care what trim you are purchasing at the end of the day it is a truck, should any truck really have carpet? After all weather your feet are wet, snowie, muddy, or just dirty why does any truck have carpet? Yes I know that make all weather floor mats and I know they offer a carpet delete option for the XLT and all the way up to platinum but it’s very difficult to find, most super duty’s sitting on the lot all have carpet. Rubber flooring that is standard on an xl I love! I have take a water hose and hose out the floors and then they look like brand new again.

I have a video on my you tube channel showing the lights go check it out u will like them. 6) rear seats not folding down like my 2013 did it’s such a waste of space I have seen a video of a guy that mods his so he can fold them down but for a $70,000 truck they should fold down. 7) the massive cup holder or compartment on drivers side is annoying 😂😂😂😂😂god your video struck a nerve.

The one gripe that I have with super duties while I was shopping, why don't they all come standard with brake controller and upfitter switches. This truck has everything I wanted except the upfitter switches and they are expensive to add on the new trucks, it was less then 100.00 to add them on the previous generation.

My 17 lariat mirrors once initiated will continue to fold in or go out even after my ignition is turned off... interesting you say your will stop right in the middle.

Check the setting out. I don’t do it every time so I don’t use it but I am pretty sure I saw it as an option. But I will say the complaint I most agree with you on is the tow hook issue as I have a large RV and a flat bed car hauler and have tried countless things to fix that issue to no avail.

The door handle issue is not an issue unique to Ford. I had a 2015 Jeep GC with the same feature. The manual even says you likely may need to change your habit pattern of putting your thumb on the lock/unlock button. Just slide your fingers behind the handle. I personally love it! Loved it on my Jeep and love it on my F-150.

I have a 2018 f350 platinum. I read the manual and the black fob on the door handle is to close, not to open it. I'm with you on the beep the truck makes when you step out of it with the key in your pants, its annoying as hell, and lastly, yes I hate the big key fob in my pocket. Good review bro

@@BriansLawnMaintenance I'm wondering the same thing. Basically they blacked out the headlight surround so my guess is that they didn't want to pay the supplier too do the same on the LED bezels. Check it out on the website. Even still it's just an appearance package. If I want to put the LEDs why should Ford care. A RAV4 had LEDs but not a 60k Ford? When is the best time to hydroseed in New England?

Best way to solve this issue is install a second battery and dedicate all extra power items like your plow to that battery FYI I was one of the guys that created that topic on the plowsite. I had my truck flashed and it only happen one time with my old fisher straight blade 8’ I decided to buy a fisher xv2 s.s v plow and haven’t had the issue since.

I have multiple newer Ford vehicles and I hate the horn sounds as well when I exit the vehicle. I try to keep the door open so it won’t do it or put the key in the cup holder. My F-150 lets me fold on the tow mirrors at any time. Power is never cut. So that is weird.

My buddy got a 2017 GMC Sierra Denali with the diesel, moonroof, and LED lighting for 62K out the door. So I would feel that the GMC was the most bang for the buck. But I love the ruby red ford though.
@BriansLawnMaintenance6 жыл бұрын
Hunter Kennedy Honestly they’re giving away Sierras. They’re not selling at all. That’s why so many incentives and the lower price point. I even considered them last fall, but I couldn’t bring myself to do it. Just not a big GM guy. Although I will say, the truck does look nice with the right packages!

All valid points of things that annoy you. It doesn't take long to find things that bother a person when you are pretty much living in it. I bought a 2016 GMC 1500 Max towing new, and with the options I wanted it took a week to get it to me. There was 2 available, one in southern Michigan and one in Indiana. I took the one in Michigan because I liked the silver better than the red. There are several things that annoy me on my truck also.
