Ford F650 Super Truck Review // What Fresh Hell Is This

The Ford F-650 Super Truck ($300,000) is a modified straight-frame F-650 with a 6.7 L turbo diesel engine, making 330 horsepower and 750 lb ft of torque. It has a massive fuel tank, custom wheels, and lots of other bespoke Super Truck additions. But how is it to drive on the highways and streets in a city like Toronto? Thomas and James are excited to take this F-650 Super Truck on a mini Throttle House Adventure! We hope you enjoy the episode. And then subscribe, silly.

Man you should live in the South. They use these to tow Car trailers. This thing can tow 10 cars a trailer while beating a BMW in a drag race and stopping on a dime like a Ferrari. And in the US we have superb roads perfect for these hot shot haulers.

[@Ocastia]

​@@TheBasher-_- what BMW? One of those small toy ones with a pullback motor? And whilst I understand that utility vehicles do have good brakes, the only time one of those "supertrucks" stops on a dime, is when it hits a wall. + You could just use a regular F650/Semi to tow cars, so I don't see how that justifies putting armchairs, fake vents and an F350 bed on an otherwise perfectly good F650.

[@matrinezkevin11492]

​@Ocastia I'm not going to vouch for their speed but, I used to drive one of these for work a few years ago and, with the exhaust brake on, this thing really REALLY stops in a hurry. Most of the time you can just one foot drive it and it'll slow you down to about 10 mph when the exhaust brake cuts off.

[@bwofficial1776]

@@Ocastia Why wouldn't you want more comfortable chairs in your hauler? Plus, with a bed you can put stuff in it and not have it immediately fall out like a flatbed. These trucks have massive brakes and a lot of rubber contacting the road. I've never seen a semi-truck with a pickup bed.

The difference between Thomas' and James' explanations of how a diesel exhaust brake works is absolutely adorable, and the exact reason why this channel is the best on yt.

[@Renee_R343]

But why doesn't it (or as he said "a diesel engine") not bring down your speed when you just let off the gas? Was that a joke or are the diesel engines different in North America. I drive a 3 liter diesel daily and it engine brakes like any other normal car. I've also driven a few semi trucks. When I let off the gas, yes the engine brings down the speed just like a 1.6 toyota does. European truck have a separate foot switch for extra downhill engine braking in place of the American Jake brake but otherwise the engine works like in any normal car. So what is he on about?

[@notpoliticallycorrect4774]

@@Renee_R343 When you let off the throttle on a gasoline engine, the throttle body valve closes, restricting the air flow. Diesel engines do not restrict the air flow, unless it has an added device like a swirl actuator that my 3.0 Mercedes diesel in my jeep 'had'. There is a good chance that the vehicles you have driven have added features to make them drive like a gasoline vehicle.

[@Renee_R343]

@@notpoliticallycorrect4774 So you're telling me that driving that F650 and letting off the gas feels the same as throwing it in neutral would? That the Vehicles speed wouldn't decrease any faster than due to the aerodynamic drag and the rolling resistance of the wheels? So what if there is any air going to the cylinders during decel while in gear, there is no fuel combustion during decel anyway?

A compression release engine brake, compression brake, or decompression brake, frequently called a Jacobs brake or Jake Brake, is an engine braking mechanism installed on some diesel engines. When activated, it opens exhaust valves to the cylinders, right before the compression stroke ends, releasing the compressed gas trapped in the cylinders, and slowing the vehicle.

There's a sticker on the driver's front fender that's usually on commercial vehicles. That means it's probably registered at 11000kg or more, which requires a CDL to drive. Maybe not necessarily, but usually. That may be why you didn't get a ticket, but either way, great content as always.

[@Sak-zo1ui]

It is isnt required until the truck is used for commercial purposes. You can daily this truck without a cdl.

[@philipschofield7105]

@Sak-zo1ui I'm not sure that's true. You can't daily a tractor just because you say it's not for commercial use. A G class license can only drive a vehicle up to 11000kg. At 11000kg you need a cdl. Caveat you can in some cases drive a vehicle like a wrecker (tow truck) or flatbed with a G classes license, so long as you are operating under the cdl of the owner/operator.

You don't need a commercial driver's license to drive that truck. But if it is over a certain weight, or is used for commercial purposes, it must have a weight rating and pass inspections. The driver does not need special licensing unless there are air brakes.

The Over Compensator Wank Tank 650 truly is in a class of it's own. I like it. It's utterly ridiculous and infantile, but I like it. I would get the chromed 6 door 8 seater version they had on Top Gear, though. This version is a bit small and understated.

Nice to see the waterfront condos in Toronto have been completed. Bet none of the regular commuters welcomed your sharing the main road into town.

Years ago one of my clients, who was an NFL player, had a F-650 all customized like this and he lent it to me for awhile. It got so much attention from all sorts of people! Most of the time it was positive. I've spent time driving all sorts of crazy cars and this was up there in the look at me type of way. The only way I would have one was the F-650s that are set up for long distance towing with good highway tires and a hauler bed. BTW there is a company that makes a suspension for them that actually makes them ride really good. It's about $10k to $15k but when you're already spending this much why people don't get that all that often is beyond me.

@devontasson6556 LaRon Landry. He won a Nation Championship with LSU, 1st round draft with the Redskins who he played for like 5 or 6 seasons, Pro Bowl year with the Jets, then went to the Colts. I worked with him helping manage his cars for several years.

The Seattle Seahawks receiver Golden Tate got a "luxury" F-350(?) (when he played for Detroit). A friend was Tate's neighbor and talked to him about it shortly after it was delivered. Tate knew it was a silly thing. But some people like expensive jokes. Also, he was having the shocks changed because the ride was rough; and the interior was very pink.

[@CoCoFreewheeler]

As someone that has owed one of these monstrosities, it is a 100% unique experience. After daily driving one for about a year, a lot of the novelty had worn off. The need of the massive towing capacity had also disappeared, leaving me with no desire to continue parallel parking in SF just for the fun/cool factor of owning it. Would I recommend one? Only for a very specific use case. Mine was a 2007 powered by a CAT ACERT C7 backed by an Allison 6 speed.

[@Ofthehunt]

This would be perfect for my office job.

[@derekortiz3663]

When these first came out, it was pretty amazing what they could tow. Now, an f450 is rated for 10k more.

[@jMichaelEdwards]

with an additional 200hp

[@purwantiallan5089]

​@@jMichaelEdwardsthe F450 has 1380bhp actually.

[@breadunslicer8580]

@@purwantiallan5089 what 450 are you talking about? the f450 with the 6.7 Powerstroke has 475 hp and 1050lb-ft of torque its also available with the high output which gets bumped up to 500 horsepower and 1,200 lb-ft of torque the f650 and f750 get the detuned Powerstroke with between 270-330hp and 700-750 ft-lb torque, depending how you option it. ive taken my information from the ford website which lists the 450 as a MY2024 and the 650 and 750 as MY2025 not really worth noting but the chassis cab configuration for f350-f600 arent available with the high output powerstroke (thats just me getting distracted) as you go through previous models of the ford powerstroke equipped trucks they all have less HP and torque than the 6.7. if im wrong please correct me but im curious where you got your 1380 number

Ya... I owned a 18 f650 flatbed tow truck that weighed over 15k lbs (steel deck). It drove very well, did not have that loose steering, and had decent braking performance. I'd bet the heavy tires have caused a number of issues with ball joints, rod ends, king pins, and brake performance.

[@kylehagertybanana]

Dif you use it for towing a lot?

[@skankhunt420]

I owned a lot of 18650's

[@nhbountyhunter]

​@@kylehagertybanana It was a flatbed tow truck used to repo cars. So it was used everyday. I leased it for 3 years from 2017 to 2020. I bought a 12 Hino in 2020 that had stupid low miles and was perfect for repossessions as it is a rotator bed with an aluminum deck. The f650 definitely had more power and a better ride. But I can't complain about the Hino at all. It's been a damn rock except for a small issue with the DEF injection.
