2023 Ford F250 STX 7.3L - It's Surprisingly AFFORDABLE For An HD Truck

[@dantimber]

Maybe it's a small thing but the consistency of the green foliage background in the review is better and less distracting than a bunch of other vehicles. And the full profile shot is great for perspective. Great review.

[@703Speed]

Thank you! That’s always been the idea - have a nice background in a quiet area. Makes a difference

[@travelinman482]

​@@703Speed What's the MSRP? Dealer out-the-door price?

[@Alex.AL_26]

I have no use for a truck that tows this much but I would still buy a Super Duty over an F150 any day of the week

[@RyeitOut]

Its crazy that this is $20k cheaper than some of those F150 Lariats.

[@kevinmcquitery4543]

Just saw a 2024 F150 Platinum Powerboost for $90,000. smh

[@Theonestrongbusleader]

Now my dream truck.

[@mmr0221]

Nice and informative! Glad this was recommended to me

[@703Speed]

Thank your for watching!

[@NorthwoodsNomad]

Very thorough review ! Your product knowledge is impeccable ! I’d love to see a review of this same STX package with the 6.8L engine

[@703Speed]

Thank you! I'll see what I can do

[@theingobeck4772]

I just bought an STX 6.8L CC, FX4. I drove an XLT 7.3L and it had noticeably more umph in the pedal but I can say that the 6.8L with it's lighter-duty transmission is much smoother and it still has enough power to roast the tires with traction control off. If you want to get better than 10mpg you'll be setting the cruise control and babying it so the little bit of extra hp/torque means nothing to me except temptation to waste fuel.

[@lukiw7044]

I love this car and this Godzilla engine. I would choose it with Tremor package. Great review as always. Greetings

[@keweenawbee]

I’ve noticed you haven’t been mentioning that remote start with cell phone (not the fob however and it doesn’t work in local WiFi -only, you need cell reception) is now standard on F150 F250. Thanks you helped me buy my new F150XL.

[@703Speed]

I will start mentioning that. Glad the videos could help u!

[@keweenawbee]

@@703Speed what’s wild (and disappointing) is that while it will update Ford Pass firmware over our mesh WiFi system in both locations (via Starlink) we can only schedule the remote start from inside the cab manually at our cabin where we have no cell service. 2023 75th anniversary F150’s have an amazing list of standard equipment features I am glad I waited for the price drops. Saved 15% off sticker/17% off msrp. Thanks again @703speed

[@mikemccarthy6939]

Pay load will be on the driver door sticker

[@mario-sl6cz]

That’s not affordable lol not at all this inflation is stupid

[@ZR1Terror]

It’s affordable for me.

[@joshualake4882]

I know it's not apples to apples but 2014-2016 super duty with low mileage power strokes are at dealers for $50-$60k. A truck nearly 10 years old is still selling for over $50k. Not just Fords either any low mileage diesel truck.

[@brandon-kg2vd]

Bidenomics with his 9% inflation rate

[@point4894]

Please, show how back of front seat can recline. If you remove front headrest, and them recline back of front seat, can you get a platform for sleeping?

[@703Speed]

Good question. I'll check this out next time I'm in a new super duty

[@chikosneff]

What’s the payload rating on this one ?

[@703Speed]

Couldn’t find that info

[@mikemccarthy6939]

Driver door sticker will tell you payload capacity

[@hawk2328]

This is good for a work truck

[@timmach05]

The front grille and DRL/headlight set up is overkill.

[@GA-250RX]

Lol! Exactly what I call that color! “Work truck white”. Any color but white or fire engine red!

[@fordman921]

I have both and I can tell you the 6.7 will walk all over the 7.3. If you’re not towing or haven’t ever driven a powerstroke then ya the 7.3 is okay. I’ll say this I’ll never not own a powerstroke again after have a 7.3.

[@703Speed]

O ya, they’re not even in the same realm. 6.7 is an insane motor with gobs of power. However, diesel is expensive and maintaining a diesel is also pricey. Which is why the 7.3 is a nice alternative for those not needing a diesel

[@Davesworld7]

@@703Speed Moving to diesel is a lifestyle change. The price difference and the maintenance difference do put it into a different realm. The price of entry starts at 10k more.

[@overlandski7795]

I cannot get over the bugeyed look of this truck comparing to the previous gen. It was a much better looking truck. Chevy looks gorgeous comparing to this fugly thing

[@EricAnderson-dc1um]

I feel like you could price out a Silverado 2500 LT for very similar price.

[@trentherring5640]

13mpg mixed driving.

[@703Speed]

Not terrible considering

[@JustinDunbar-g3r]

That's truck looks like a 1980s truck if you look at the grill of it

[@lukegoodwin2160]

the answer is no

[@fattie2550]

1K monthly car note affordable???? LOL

[@703Speed]

Hard to find an HD truck for any less that isn't a total base model

[@fattie2550]

@@703Speed Base model HD gas trucks are still 1K a month or very close. The 500-600 car notes are a thing of the past unless you put a huge down payment

@@fattie2550 Yes, it's unfortunate.. I want a new car, but car prices and interest rates make it a silly financial decision for me at least right now

[@workingcountry1776]

Thats why my 300,000 mile work truck is getting love and I will drive it another 100k miles (2--3 years) and hope the markets have corrected by then.
