Trade In Your Crappy Ford! (2025 Silverado 1500 RST)

[@luischannel04]

Fasting! Go for a walk ! A mile a day keeps the doctor away.

[@jp_7650]

One thing I actually like about the Silverado IS the big front end, especially on the RST or Trail Boss. They're aggressive looking. I'm a Ford guy but the F150 front end seems to keep shrinking, to the point now that the new ones remind me of a Maverick and I hate it lol.

[@gregoryhanger3657]

He knows his stuff guys...look at the vehicles he buys, never once made a bad choice and had to sell it before he was ready! However if i paid 100k for Braptor i would be salty aswell

[@thunderjoe]

$60K with cloth seats and a front bench? Full size trucks are dead to me at this point. At least as a new vehicle.

[@sunpark9195]

u can get one with leather for 60+tax

[@jbug2350]

Ben I'll take a Chevrolet over a Ford any day.

[@ramfan5149]

Not bad. $60K for a $45K truck. Can't beat that!

[@kylebelcina]

I still can't believe gm still gives you manual passenger seats for that price. Also throw in leather.

[@CalebRyan-TNCx]

It’s the small things that make a big difference. 👍🏻

[@tonytunnell9873]

I wish you'd actually talk about the failure rate of these ten speed transmissions. Just go to any dealer and find out how long it takes to get a valve body for one of these ten speeds that are failing in record numbers.

[@jbug2350]

Very little, I work at a Chevrolet dealership.

[@tonytunnell9873]

@jbug2350 then you should know that a valve body for the 10 speeds are 3 months on back order. And my 2024 silrado 2500 has been at the dealer waiting for the valve body since July 1.

[@jbug2350]

@@tonytunnell9873 true on back order. That's for all makes of vehicles, Dodge, Ford, Toyota etc... Though the comment, they are falling in record numbers is false. That's your experience. They are not falling.

@@tonytunnell9873 you're just trolling

[@TS-KDMF1777]

They just don’t make trucks the way they used to. I had a ‘99 Silverado with 280k miles. Today’s trucks just don’t have the long term reliability. Nice review Ben!

[@bk27117]

Those wheels for that price is unreal

[@RussellFrench-f8r]

I’d go for LTZ!

[@timoneill2451]

I have blk rst with 3.0 duramax great truck 20 inch wheels rides smooth tim

[@StevenEveral]

Looks like a decent work/commuter truck with everything you need and nothing you don’t need. It just needs to be about 3-5k cheaper.

[@Jake1968bc]

Chevy for me!!👍💪

[@KenMcCune-wb3jp]

Chevrolet Silverado built a good working truck

[@smittysmitty481]

Nice truck but only worth $54k MSRP

[@hellodrjeckyl]

I life the styling and interior more on the GMs but would still take an F150 over these.

[@joedirt7423]

This video just made me want a Ford even more lol

[@alexfry9114]

Hey Ben could you do a Chevrolet 2500 single cab

[@SuperTipsLLCs35]

Fords are good, but i go for Ram over silverado

[@bwaters698]

Anything with ties to BlackRock ! (ram) NO THANKS! And ford has had recall after recall after recall!!!

[@GRAFHC]

All modern trucks are equally good and equally risky, if you ask my opinion. I drive GMC but I wouldn't be worried about owning a Ford, RAM, Toyota, etc.

[@paulfeasal6024]

Right now all are having issues. I did get a better look of a teardown of the 2.7's Ecoboost engines and see wesr their issues lie. It's a very common issue with the turbo engines. The bearings for the connecting rods seem to wear early. However the vehicle was a 2020 F-150 2.7 Ecoboost. Saw a 5.0 that had It's piston blow up at low miles. Surprisingly it didn't destroy the block. So I guess the spray on Cylinder sleeves must be working. The 2.7's block is made well. The other issue for Ford is the oil pumps are connected to the timing with a belt and are wet. They fail earlier that what the maintenance calls for. So check those early. I saw videos of those losing their at 60 thousand miles and going all through the engine clogging everything up. Causing a complete replacement of the engine needed and the turbos.

[@triplehsheartattack8515]

Fighting over the 3 worst truck brands in 2024 is diabolical

[@paulfeasal6024]

@triplehsheartattack8515 They keep saying hold my beer everytime one comes up with a recall issues. Toyota got Jealous of how many recalls the big three in recalls were having once the good CEO left.

[@andrewshenton6541]

Why is the badge blacked but nothing else

[@DuckbumSD]

Get rid of that start stop tech and I’d consider it , I have two friends that have had to redo the lifters on trucks less than 40k miles 👎 also the transmission clunk on take off .

[@angelowhite2697]

I wonder how many recalls this will have,did they fix the lifter problem,I am guessing probably not,junk to me

[@jamesfulks2910]

Uh, No!!

[@TrazimDollare1982]

Ben, I still pick a Ford over this Chevrolet

[@paulfeasal6024]

Both Ford and Chevy are having major issues. Ford pretty much every one has an issue with the oil pump belt that connects to the timing. Saw many teardowns that the wet belt went early and particles went throughout the engine and turbos causing a need for whole engine replacements and turbos. Chevy the lifters and cylinder locking rinds were breaking and were recalled for the 5.3's. They changed the other engine that was having issues. I heard they made good changes to the 3.0 diesel engine for GM. I haven't heard anything bad about the 2.7 in the 1500 or Colorado. But if I had to guess if it has an issue it would be the connecting rods bearings. Which is an issue with the Ford' 2.7 Ecoboost engine. Pretty much any Fornd Ecoboost is going to have premature wear in the connecting rods bearing amd pretty much any other manufacturers. The 2.3's didn't have big issues with them though. Not sure with the new design though. Ram just got a 3.0 turbo engine. Most manufacturers the 3.0 is a nightmare. I forgot to mention the only issue I heard of with the Colorado is the instrument cluster with the speedometer crashing. They did a software fix for it. Hopefully it works.

[@issavibez394]

Cause they use junkkyy motorcraft oil

[@Whoopie2016]

Poor

[@Justhings332]

Steel trucks are better than aluminum. (Steel is a lot more durable than aluminum which cracks and doesn’t handle stress as well) Ford trucks don’t look good. They’re very bland. Not a problem if you just want something for work or utility purposes. Chevys and dodge’s look way better than ford’s trucks. But they can’t tow. (The chevys) They can haul but not tow. Ford is the king of performance and towing. Chevy is the king of design and that’s about it. So if you want a true all round do it all truck, get a ford, if you want a truck for looks, get a Chevy.

B/C , are you old enough to remember when M/ T mag accused ford of the phantom truck sales!! Ford wasn't able to prove their sales numbers! And ford is the Only auto maker the last time I checked that add their wholesale & retail sales together to pad its sales!! And If you check GM Out sales ford! You're probably one of those people who thinks ford didn't take a government bail out again Wrong!!
