My 20 f350 has been good to me too. Some of those reasons happen like the lights issue. But as for my trans I serviced it at 50k even tho Ford says 100k heavy duty use. I used fuel additives and oil additives from day one and no issues. I swapped all other fluids too at 50k. Cdl hotshot towing 10-19k lbs on my trailer daily . I am currently trading up to a 450 cause around 40k gross the f350 doesn’t like it. Plenty of power just doesn’t stop very well and doesn’t tow the best. The engin brake worked ok for me in the north east. Just don’t go hauling azz b4 a down grade . The engin brake held my speed pretty good on our little mtns. Been happy w my truck just need a bigger truck for my lanes.

Hi Alex, I have a 2020 Ford F-350 SRW with 98k hotshot miles and have not had one issue with it. I add optilube with every diesel fill and use an Amsoil bypass filter along with Rotella T6 oil. As for the transmission I do regular flushes and use the tow haul mode all the time. I do agree that the engine break could be better and I do get high beam flashes a lot even with air bags.

You said the fuel in the US is bad. That is true. But, I have been telling you for a long time to stop buying fuel at the truck stops. Get it at the larger 7-11's or where ever. Truck stop diesel is 20 % bio and the small stations are 10 % bio. Big difference there and helps on MPG and pump price. If your truck is squatting that much in the rear that it is causing a problem with the head lights, either your springs are bad or your load is not balanced. You are tagged at 26,000 and I am tagged at 39,999 and I never have a problem with my headlights bothering anybody on with my F350.

I have been running 6.7 fords since they came out. In Canada with rough roads, shit diesel (with additive added), heavier loads than your non CDL loads. No trans problems, nobody flashing me with their high beams because I use air bags and know how to balance a load. No cp4 problems to speak of yet but I do worry about them. Buying a new gm or ram gets you a cp4 as well. Oil changed every 8000km (5000 miles) and fuel filters every second oil change. Zero issues with my fords. I had a 2020 ram 5500 as a rental last summer and my employees and myself all hated the seats, and even with the aisin Trans it still did the famous shifting up and down like crazy on hills and flaring between gears like the pos dodge trans always has. Best chance with a dodge is getting a 6 speed manual with a cp3 which is no longer an option so it's a no brainer we will stay ford until there is something better. Btw dude less blow before these uneducated speeches would make you seem alot less sketchy and more reliable to listen too for a review. Please do an honest comparison of cost between a three fords you have had compared to one of the two dodges you have owned.

I betcha part of the problem with his transmissions is lack of maintenance, when you're towing heavy you've gotta keep up with that trans maintenance or you're going to hurt it, the dodges are already used to shitty transmissions and it makes that Aisin look awesome. We've had tons of issues with a 15 denali 2500's allison ourselves, got the truck from an old lady that never towed with 63k, trans went at 70. We put a new one in and are only at 90k and this one's already going, we're gonna trade it off for an f350 gasser because we don't tow heavy often enough to need the diesel, and the maintenance on it is getting way too expensive for how little we use it, and those new CP4 trucks are just scary.

Doesn't it make sense to adjust the truck level, seat position, mirrors and LIGHTS for the normal use of the truck? And doesn't your gooseneck setup allow you to adjust your pin forward a little? Anyway, thanks for the review. Keep on trucking and stay safe!

The 2021 ram has supposedly gone to a different pump. I now use fuel supplement to lube the pump. Aside from that the ram is superior in every way. Btw I am CDL hotshot at 43k gross. Aisin w the exhaust break works great. Never touch the brakes. As always, great info! Keep the videos coming Alex!

Headlight problem? - Every truck with halogens in this country has this issue since they do not self level (like Europe) so install Air bags for christs sake and problem is solved. CP4 issue - Every other HD truck has to deal with it due to poor diesel in the US, so add a better filtering system. 10r Trans - have you read about the horror stories on the Ram trans? Your 10r still works though, right? Has it left you stranded like Ram owners? Plus you bought the cheapest version of the truck possible, and then you compare it to a limited Ram? C'mon bud, get a grip.

It did a good job at holding the truck back even when I grossed 34k lbs ( I know I shouldn't have hauled that much weight but I did) . You can airbag the drive axle. If you own it, you can adjust it ( I am not saying that you should have to. I agree that Ford should do better). I don't know what's causing the transmissions to break so I won't comment on that.

Great video Alex! Something else needs to be said here considering the times we live in for some reason people that are loyal Ford truck buyers feel the need to lie about the repairs, I have friends who own these trucks and they recommended them to other friends knowing they were lying when they said I’ve had no problems and they thought they were extremely reliable trucks after having transmission issues and fuel pump issues and other issues with the truck, Multiple times I’m 52 years old I’ve seen Ford build 2 other garbage power stroke engines which were lucky to break 100,000 miles before DEAD engines back in 2012 through 14 we’re garbage as well you couldn’t use one part from that engine internals to rebuild it I don’t know why people that drive Ford have the need to be liars but never trust anyone who recommends Ford, I realize dodge trucks have flaws as well but they’re not even close to the same cost for those flaws and most of them won’t put you out of business for two weeks while it’s being repaired however I do know many people on 3500s or half tons three-quarter tons. And all of them have all these RAM trucks for years and years with no problems and very few problems and they aren't liars that Ford owners are, stay away from Frauds it will bite you with every single truck made! And that fall will cost you $10,000 at some point! or what I call PANIC Mode !

I love your videos! But I’ve gotta say your main problem is it’s a lease so you can’t do the simple things to fix some of these issues. For the headlights I spent $150 and replaced them with LED’s PROPERLY MADE LED’s. And now I never get flashed. Also these trucks need airbags with the kind of weight we haul. I have bags in mine and can adjust them on the fly, my headlights always shine onto the road. I also think your using the exhaust break wrong or not using it at all because it DOES have one. You could also be creating the hills to fast and that sets you up for excessive speed down the hills. I cross the Rockies regularly on all of the major interstates and never have a problem holding speed. As I crest a hill I engage AUTO Exhaust Brake and my speed never climbs above 1 or 2 MPH from that point on.

Your comments on the exhaust brakes are spot on. I routinely pull 24000 pounds with zero issues. What manufacture allows for load squat for the lights? NONE!! So your airbag comment is once again spot on! The seats could be better but I’ve made a living sitting in a seat and they all get uncomfortable after awhile, especially when we get older. The tranny does shift a bit to firm for my liking. Zero fuel issues so far, not saying there couldn’t be. But he lost me with the light rant and pretty much concedes he’s an idiot!

I had a 1990 7.3L 4 wheel drive..a great truck but when they wouldn’t honor a paint recall for the hood because the dealer didn’t tell me it was a dealer only recall notice, that was the last Ford I bought..just not happy about needing to pay $500 to have the hood repainted because they had used a primer that failed.

My friend something isn't right with you in this video, because on this one (Maintenance & 75K mile review - 2020 FORD F350) you even said that the Ford with the 10 speed was much better than any RAM. You specifically specify with the 10 speed. I like your videos but try not to say one thing today and another one tomorrow. Is not good for your credibility. Much respect for you and please do not get upset is not my intention. Take care, God bless.

I thought he loved the 10 speed also...I have one and like it so far. Dodge just put out big recall on the 3500... something about causing a fire. Also Dodge had lot of CP4 issues that's why they changed for 2021. I'm going to do the best with maintaining the truck and trailer. So far I like the truck and have not had any problems with the seat. I never noticed a problem with my lights. I have a Flatbed that I bought with a cab and chassis so I have more leafsprings. I did just mount a 91gal tank and pump on the back. Always enjoy your videos. I have learned quite a few things watching them.

For starters ….in the beginning he did like the 10 speed and so did everyone else, but after 50-60k with heavy towing, they turn to trash. It’s indisputable…..it’s happening all over the industry. The ford 10 speed is not a commercial grade transmission. It’s a vacation/grocery getter transmission at best.

I can't speak to Ford's CP4 fuel pump directly since I own an Chevy Duramax. But mine is the LML Duramax with the CP4 pump and they are known for going out and taking the whole fuel injection system with it. The fix is to run a lift pump. Apparently, CP4 pumps are sensitive to air in the fuel over time causing them to wear out. And the lift pump resolves that issue by maintaining a steady flow of fuel. My 2011 has 229,000 miles, and a lift pump, and is still going strong.

We need to look at what the manufacturer’s are really building these trucks for. Is it Hotshot or the local contractors towing their equipment around their community. But also Including the ranchers and camper folks. Big difference in pounding out 800 miles a day after day. Verses a week. Nobody builds a perfect vehicle that’s why they all have service bays.

I'm not Farming, but am also looking to get a fifth wheel trailer and want a rigid truck to handle the weight. Im not using it to tow a 4 car trailer or anything like that. Ford to me has always been a trendsetter in the business and the go to vehicle for most municipal applications and services. Gracias Amigo!👍🙏🇺🇲🇧🇷 Jhonny, Da P8NTRMAN🎨

I had a 2017 f250 6.2 lariat ultimate. Was a total dog towing anything over 8k and got terrible mileage doing anything. So now I have the 2021 f350 6.7 and it’s impressive, but if I wasn’t towing much weight, I’d stick with a gas hd for sure. Would probably last a lot longer than a half ton towing near its max.

Ram got smart and ditched the CP4 for 2021 and went back to the CP3 with larger lines and injectors, which helped with fuel delivery and power increases. 2020-current Fords are not going to age well on the secondhand market due to the 10spd trans issues and CP4. Around 50-60k miles, major problems start to pop up. #cumminslife

I don't consider the seats to be minor... being comfortable is VERY important, especially for you who spends most of your life in them. I've been trying to find a nice set of 4th gen RAM seats (cloth) for my 2005, since they're a direct bolt-in. I thought Ford had a real exhaust brake... very surprised they don't. I love the PacBrake in my 2005... that plus it being a manual trans (G56) and it works VERY VERY well.
