High Output Power Stroke Vs Regular Power Stroke: Is The High Output Really Worth It?

[@T_RexDino]

Speak for yourself, I want a 6.7 HO excursion.😂

[@tdotw77]

👍💯🔥✔️💪

[@208RedNeck]

Hell yes!!

[@carter.coleman]

I want a 6.7 ho raptor

[@maxon1672]

YES!!! Those would sell unbelievably well.

[@Yungbull820]

Those 2020 Expeditions or newer. Can fly and you get 642 miles to E (in a 2wd package)

[@redsuperduty1]

I have a 23 f350 6.7L H.O. and have owned many Superdutys..If the engine temp is not up to around 150 degrees it runs at a reduced power output. And for some reason it really don't go until 3rd gear hits.. Try all of that the next time and see the difference.

[@johntaylor6340]

Even if there wasnt a power difference I’d still go with the high output to get the benefits of the water cooled turbo. And better heat suited exhaust piping.

[@zakche9548]

Yep I second that water cooled turbo

[@thelantard]

I tow a 5th wheel all the time and I agree, cooling that turbo would be very helpful. When my turbo is spooled hard for extended periods, my temps come up and the fan kicks in to manage it.

[@trexthepony8614]

Ugh. There both water cooled my friends. 6.7 use a duel cooling system. Secondary cools your intercooler and some other systems. Main works the egr engine and turbo.

[@jabroni6199]

They’re both water cooled in the traditional sense. The HO also water cools the compressor side.

[@AB-coyote]

Both trucks likely have significant torque management until a certain MPH and probably 3rd gear.

[@robertensign8786]

You WILL notice a difference when using the 3.55 axel ratio especially when towing heavy with gooseneck. I own both. 3.31 and 3.55. The difference when taking off at a stop light while heavily loaded is noticeable. I tow cattle and hay and tractors on a 25’ gooseneck. I imagine adding the high output engine onto the 3.55 axels on a regular cab makes for a towing beast.

[@sdb87149]

What ratio do you recommend for someone not towing high weights? 3.31? Better fuel economy

[@robertensign8786]

@@sdb87149 3.31 for sure

[@lcowboy8918]

The high output is only worth considering on a 350 or 450 dually that is run primarily as a towing rig. The standard engine is fine for >99% of people's needs.

[@SoonerMikeD]

You forgot the “flex” factor. Can’t be riding around with no red in my badge 😂

[@armedprophet3321]

Bite you tongue sir ! Saying a truck has too much power is like saying a girl is too pretty…it’s impossible !

[@2010drive]

The gas engine is fine for >99% of people's needs. One thing is for sure, you'll never regret having more power than you need.

[@armedprophet3321]

[@jeffclark4008]

The HO 6.7 is worth it in any SD application. It's worth it if you want the HO option. Heck, is the 6.7L really needed in most applications? No, but damn it's nice to have. Then there is the resale factor.

[@germansaucedo4607]

In my personal opinion, these trucks are not for “flexing” hp but used to haul big trailers with a load 😂 and with this video it would be more entertaining if it was a video pulling a trailer with a load to see the difference from the HO to the regular 6.7 🤔

[@Sboizify]

475 vs 500...not probably going to notice on acceleration. They're both fast as hell for big trucks lmao

[@Captain-Awesome]

The part that you are missing is about the character of the Man purchasing these trucks. We don’t always want to work and between work and sleeping we like to play. TFL was racing the HO Power Stroke against a Mustang GT!! You can’t do that in most trucks. Frankly many half ton trucks today are also fast. It’s about the truck that puts a smile on your face. Like a Raptor, mine doesn’t see off road work but it does zip around town.

[@roberth7340]

The only reason I got the HO on my 23 F250 is because it wasn’t an option not to for the Tremor package on the 23. I had the 22 F250 Tremor with the regular 6.7 and it was great. I would recommend getting the HO to anyone ordering a 6.7 because there is a noticeable difference in response and it just flies. It really is a joy to drive. Also the water cooled turbo is nice for longevity (assuming Ford) has it right)

[@BrianAz]

Thanks for adding the payload/towing stickers Ben, you know I complain about that every time, but I thank you.

[@randallbrown7898]

I just took delivery on a 2024 F350 SRW with the HO, and there is a noticeable difference compared to the standard 6.7 having previously owned 3 of prior year models. I think the 25 extra benjamins is worth the bigger water jacketed turbo and SS exhaust headers. What's another 2500 on a hundred grand for the extra umph? Extra power is a no brainer.

[@zakche9548]

You need to do a long distance drive to spot the difference...I preferred the high output but I tried it without the lift was pretty tense when you step on it...just try long distance or the highway. Be safe.

[@johnhancock9249]

I have owned about 10 super duty fords. I trade them in every other year for my building company. I tell you there is a significant difference in the h o. And if you like to play with the speed you will eat the back tires up quickly if you are not careful. I have a 1 ton single axel. And this truck is quick off the line. The extra horse is very noticeable

[@glennmurray4034]

Agreed, I noticed the difference between my 22 F350 dually and 24 F350 with the HO motor.

[@cnetate]

Towing through the co mountains, I'll take as much power as I can

[@repll]

Why didnt you put it in 4wd high to see the difference on acceleration in both trucks

[@mikedowling3569]

Couple of things… I think you have a choice on the Tremor pkge. (I.e. not forced to go H.O.) for ‘24 & what about the differences in axle ratios. Which would be the best overall for towing 50% of the time?

[@moriorinvictus6522]

I own both 2023 and 2024 and tow 22k trailer I do NOT notice the difference at any speed

[@wqtransports]

Can you do a video of F350 HO vs F450 HO please

[@Rami-Day]

Can you get a high output f550 crewcab chassis for hot shot?

[@juniorjuray8254]

Can't wait for the Ford F350 Limited review.

[@trumpwon8231]

Any loss or gain on the High out MPG

[@JasonSpirko-tl5yv]

I was wondering the same thing. Ben could have easily scrolled through the mpg on both while he was driving them.

[@Chris_L034]

the only real comparison would be what you do with it. if you run hotshot it would behoove you to go with the h.o. that is what it is built for. if you only tow a trailer every once in awhile then it wouldnt be worth the rougher ride all the time.

[@trumpwon8231]

Any loss or gain on the high Out Out

[@iq6840]

I'll tell you what, go grab a f450 with the limited slip. You'll FEEL the difference.

[@691plow]

So if you get the HO are you just basically paying for different tuning?

[@tonye4176]

You’re paying for an entirely different engine and tubo configuration as the ho is water cooled

[@mojo4376]

The turbo is water cooled and a slightly hotter tune.

[@ChKashifRasheed]

Awesome video I want to know more about this

[@bensaeby7586]

Thanks for posting the comparison, is the white lariat six seater tremor still available for sale?

[@mikehanson4922]

Can you call them High output and Low output?

[@abigailrodriguez6868]

What about a 6.7 L with a 3.73 Axel ratio?

[@BF-qt2wp]

Awesome video keep up with a great work and be safe out there.

[@armedprophet3321]

Awesome video ? He has absolutely no idea what he is talking about as usual. And the end statement where he says the Tremor comes standard with the diesel is a flat out lie, the standard engine is the 7.3 gasser.

[@gunsandrotors8704]

Payload is really good on these for being non gassers...ford should ditch the 3.31 gears on all pickups f150 and up 3.55 should be the minimum. 3.31 is a waste with 275 or 285 size tires.

[@texan77581]

Just ordered a 350 limited so I didn’t need to make a decision

Ben! 3 times in that video you rolled past a white Tremor in the parking lot with the Black Appearance Package! Please see if you can review that! That's a Job 2

[@chileshemubanga3594]

Ben I don't understand it when you say vehicles are very hard to find.i do see all sorts of vehicles there in the lot(even ones you deem to be hard finding).is it the issue of buying brand new or what?.

[@tdotw77]

I think this is just a very big, well stocked dealership. Also the green window stickers are customer ordered vehicles, so that's someone's truck already! He does get quite a few customers to let him drive their brand new vehicles tho.

[@VeryOddTimes]

I was shopping for a HO powerstroke and I only found two within a 8 county region. One was ridiculously overpriced and the other I ended up buying with a pretty big markup

[@brianporter4482]

the trimmer can tow more standard motor or high output has nothing to do with it this is comparing apples to oranges there totally different pickups trimmer package vs. regular package not the same

[@mackwoodcock7484]

High output and standard. Simple

[@MIDNIGHT_LARIAT]

Just say standard 6.7 or 6.7HO a lot easier

[@Brian-StarGazer-77]

Bring back the excursion and it had the 6.0 in it

[@Ali-w3s1h]

Very nice ❤

[@ophirpass]

Call them “Black” and “Red” Power Strokes

[@hphillips7425]

A 500$ tuner and you have high output power

[@tdotw77]

But, that doesn't get you the 'water' cooled turbo that the HO gets. Although I do agree, you could add a tuner to increase power of reg 6.7. It's a beast either way! Can't wait to get one....someday. 🤔👍😉

[@arod6789]

Can't tune them with standard flash. Might as well pay for the tune and turbo off the bat.
