Worst Trucks Only Idiots Buy!

[@IdealMediaChannel]

What engine comes to mind when you think of 'worst engine of all time'?

[@james_chatman]

Hyundai mostly.

[@ScotEd-o2w]

Ford V10 sucks for work trucks spark plug blowouts

[@DrGibs347]

Ls

[@HDS32678]

The one where they just took a gas block and ran diesel through it in the US.

[@sidgreentherhymeofreason]

​@HDS32678 you mean the Oldsmobile 5.7 litre diesel

[@capitateocean19]

Moms had a 99 Expedition with the 5.4 2v for 23 years and just got to say I get saying that about the 3 valve but leave the 2v out of it she's got nothing to do with this. Only problem it has is the spark plug issue but that's not even that bad only happened once to us and it has 250,000 on her

[@alexcurtis8132]

Yep, 99 must have been a good year😂 my 5.4 99 Expedition was bulletproof...the trans was pretty worn out, but it never broke down on me and had around 210k on it when i sold it lol

[@_AlejandroGonzalez_]

People fail to realize there is 2v, 3v and 4v versions of the 5.4. The 3v is the worst one of all. The other 2 versions aren’t as bad.

[@xXcampx]

I wish I had read this comment before I watched the video. It's 1:57 of my life that I can never get back.

[@Kingswood7189]

I have an '04 durango with the non-mds "pre-eagle" 5.7l v8, and shes running strong at just over 200k miles. She was ran hard by the previous owner (and ofcouse some by me, its a fun engine for sure :)), little bit of oil burning and some noticeable startup ticking from the exhaust manifold bolts, but shes a trooper as long as you keep oil on the dipstick and always keep up on the maintenance 100%.

[@bluecollarbuilds]

I have an eagle Hemi don’t worry I’ve deleted MDS and put a hellcat oil pump on I did all of this almost 2 years ago and I have no complaints

[@joshuacollier9139]

You've mixed the three valve issues with the 2v Triton. The 2 valve is damn near bullet proof with the exception of the spark plugs blowing out, which stemmed from under torquing of the spark plugs due to two few threads in the head, which is a 10 minute permanent fix. The 3v was the absolute crapper. There's endless examples of the 2v first gen Triton lasting well beyond 250k. Evidence enough can be found on marketplace. As a 22 year tech I thoroughly recommend a first gen Triton

[@noxplanationgaming]

The 6.0 is like playing Russian roulette, some were made better than others. Mine hasnt been treated the best (its a retired farm truck) but it still runs great on 200k miles. But my neigbor had one and it blew up...

[@whicket1989]

Honestly I never had any issues with my 2001 F-150 Supercrew with the 5.4L Triton V8. Drove it for 300,000 miles before it rusted out and I scraped it. Never any spark plug blowout or oil issues

[@mathewu9772]

The spark plug issue was for a different year. He is combining issues of separate variants. I have a 2001 f150 still.

[@rapmeister1000]

Glad to see the Dodge 4.7 here. I owned a Ram 1500 with one. It was the engine that was so good, until it wasn’t. Decent fuel economy and punched way above its weight in power delivery. But blown head gaskets, & the infamous clogged heater core that required cutting your dash to pieces to replace proved it was poorly designed.

[@Biomass1]

I owned a 98 Expedition and had the sparkplug blow out. Luckily had a guy repair it. Liked the truck otherwise.

[@RicClairday]

No one who actually uses their truck would buy 1 with a cylinder reduction feature. If I buy a V8, I want a true V8.

[@CJColvin]

Avoid the overpriced EcoBoost trucks at all cost.

[@pastperformance2285]

My obs gmc pickup, regular visits to Jim, my independent car care provider and a wash occasionally and my shop truck should last a long time!

[@pistons_n_pizza]

The exhaust manifold on the Ram really isn’t a huge bill to be honest and they aren’t the only ones with this issue. (Do your oil changes regularly and the cam/lifter issue isn’t super common. Most 6.0L Fords have been fixed properly by now and are actually great engines if the repairs have been done with upgraded parts.

[@pmb6287]

Chevy trucks Rule! My bow tie makes me happy, and that Hello Fresh looks pretty good! I may try it

[@AmanBenyamin]

I own a 03 F250 with the 5.4 2Valve. It doesn't have those break off plugs...and I had it for going on 4 years...changing the plugs are no problem...and love the way it runs...soooo...I guess that's exclusive to the 3 valve triton

[@mayorhp]

Triton 2v. The spark plugs launching into the atmosphere is a problem I've seen on forums. My family and have owned several of these engines and never had that issue. Never had the sludge issue. Most common I've experienced was the upper intake manifold crossover leak. My brother still owns a 97 5.4 with well over 350k. These engines are solid and last a long time. Their downside is they lack power compared to competitors of that era.

[@skynet700]

So in other words..the majority of trucks out there, are garbage.

[@ScotEd-o2w]

Dodge's biggest problems of the 2000s transmission issues

[@RayRattleHead]

I have a 2004 colorado with 3.5l it has over 500,000km on it all original. It has has the smallest stutter at idle for years but nothing has ever failed and it has never left me stranded.....yet

[@JeffOfTheMountains]

The 6.0 PowerStroke from Ford comes to mind.

[@Vincent-ke5zn]

The cylinder deactivation is a stupid idea. Chevy should have kept the 5.7 V8

[@ksteak27]

The Triton 3v are total trash. My dad had a Navigator that died at 150k miles. Got another Navigator and was RELIGIOUS about oil changes.... still died at under 150k miles. Do not buy!

[@Spartin57]

On the first gen 5.7 hemis you also forgot about the valve seat drop which is a really common occurrence on those motors.

[@guidointhedesert]

Spend 15-18K and built proof a 6.0 it will last forever

[@tired3726]

Ive had a 5.7 hemi for a long time over 240k miles still runs good just change your oil when you are supposed to and dont over fill it and youll be fine.

[@coolboy4rocks]

Before I watch this I’m just gonna assume they’re all chevys

[@IdealMediaChannel]

Haha you gotta watch then!

[@lidolf8168]

No way they are. Chevy has had a lot of flops with their smaller car motors but their truck v8s are some of the best ever made. The Duramax has had its rises and falls but even then you can get more than 40k out of a brand new one before you have issues. Ford has more truck motor flops than Chevy. I’m not a Chevy fan boy but those are just the facts.

[@WilliamCox-f7j]

Most of them. Are FORD😂😂😂 Cope harder

[@ydw63]

😂😂😂

[@Pucknuckle]

​@WilliamCox-f7j most of them are Ford? I counted two Fords, two Chevys, 3 Dodges and a Nissan... what exactly is your criteria for something to qualify as most?

[@daveyator]

The 1st diesel truck I ever purchased was a 2007 F250 with 35K miles. I got it to tow our just purchased 5th wheel. The head gasket blew bigger than you know what towing the RV from the dealer to my garage. Fortunately, the dealer I bought it from agreed to switch it for another truck.

[@UnleashPlaneman]

I love my 2016 Colorado V6!

[@johnbachman8908]

I noticed that you say many of these are fine as long as you keep up on maintenance. Shouldn’t you do that anyway?

[@redcamaro9401]

Poor people exist

[@YeagerRitter]

Lol, my 1999 Ford Expedition 5.4 Triton has over 250k and still runs great.. Same motor as the F150.. I just run cheap 10w30 Walmart oil, seldom change it but add as needed

[@guillermosanchezll]

FACTS !! My pops gets those fords a lot 3:34 kinda of bread n butter next to ac work

[@Husick420]

I had an 06 5.3 avalanche full of misery soda and bought a 2012 5.0 F-150 smooth sailing ever since

[@marcbolinger3648]

You should of differentiated between 5.4 3 valve and 2 valve, My 2003 2 valve f150 is great, I also get the oil changed around 3-4000 miles. 160k miles.

[@jamesstoops4018]

I had an 02 F-150 with the 4.6 that ejected a plug and instantly sounded like there was a helicopter under the hood trying to get out.

[@sock979]

I had a 99 expedition Eddie Bauer with the 5.4 2 valve and luckily I never had any issues but I was usually pretty good on maintenance but mine ran to 150,000 mi. I think it was before I sold it and let me tell you that thing could do burnouts like no other

[@stevenkunz4443]

My 17 1500 has been fine. Yeh I got that tick from the exhaust that is bound to happen but I’ve put 90k miles on it in 3 years and that’s the only problem I’ve had.

[@MatthewTitterington-bq7eh]

First for truck on the list that trucks not bad if you get 4.6 v8. Also i think they made a v6 one. Only bad thing is replacing the intake manifold. The metal ones leak.

[@nolantolson652]

My ecodiesel blew with no help from stillantis 😅 loved the bankruptcy process is 😢

[@jimblackbird5678]

So… the old Fords with the 5.4L, the Chevy’s with the 5.3L and all Dodges and everybody’s gonna have trouble with the diesels. Got it.

[@randallfabian6640]

The sad thing is that all these companies built good reliable trucks and engines in the past.

[@fireflyraven2760]

Not an enthusiasts but you can make the 6.0l and the 6.4l reliable you just have to rebuild the damn thing and unless you really want this think it isn't really a good idea just get either a 7.3l or a 6.7l powerstroke if you want the diesel in a ford pick up

[@icecubesbrother]

I don't believe that the Tacoma has a 3.0 liter engine, that was the predecessor.

[@king_Charles501]

Only v8 i suggest from nissan is the 5.6. I have a 2008 titan with 250k on it. The engine has been great but everything else has been a headache. Nissan should have paid more attention to it .

[@Vincent-ke5zn]

Ford should have kept the 7.3 diesel, but it goes against the new rule of planned obsolescence

[@drewd500]

Yo the ford engine that has the plugs blow out isn't the 3 valve with the nightmare plugs you show. It's the regular style plugs and it's also on the 4.6. I've done more then I'd like to tell you about

[@ut90J]

That dodge neon motor was pretty bad in that and the PT cruiser.

[@xXcampx]

They're not trucks!

[@acid847]

I'm waiting for the Mazda miata plug in this video

[@josephscott2071]

I’m guessing ford and Chevy

[@firefighter9901]

I think you forgot about the 22 and up Titan

[@guidointhedesert]

I think you actually mixed up the 2 generations

[@PatrickShaw-e3z]

Have to disagree on the early 10th gens specifically 97, 98, and 99 are awesome years, I love my 98. But, absolutely on the 6.0 and the 6.4, I'm a ford guy, and I hate those

[@roryj625]

What, Nobody body cheats on emissions tests, Come on Chrysler, do your research

[@adambuesser6264]

How about a Detroit Diesel or a Capiller engine? Any engine by Paccar or Daimler Chrysler?

[@ilyaab4516]

My dad has 03 ford ranger with 389k on it and still no issues

[@Vincent-ke5zn]

GM should have kept the 4.3 V6

[@stevenray2105]

You guys are always wrong. The 04-10 f150 is the horrible model. Also, the spark plug blowout is rare and only on the supercharged 5.4 when over boosted.

[@matty499]

Well now i hope my 3.5 stays good

2004 to 2010 5.4 3v sucks so bad but the 1999 to 2003 5.4 2v was good if you fixed the spark plug problem my 2000 f250 with the 5.4 2v with 220000 mil on it should tell you something and it still runs like new

[@D41Michigan]

@@WilliamCox-f7j don't let her idle for extended periods and toss in a hellcat oil pump. That will extend the life of the cam. Gen 3 hemi's have a fatal flaw (post 2009) where the cam doesn't get enough oil at idle

Stay away from anything with Turbos, except Porsche, who mount them away from the engine. Reasons OEM manufacturers mount them next to the engine. Most don't know Turbos get to 1,875 ° Fahrenheit or 1,020 ° Celcius. Often like the Ecoboost anything, or the EcoTech. Which I call EcoTragic. They are mounted with Heat Shields 🛡 between the engine (Often Aluminum Engine Block) which get warped. On Ecoboost Mustang the Cylinder 3 gets a code of Low Compression.. I went to V8 Mustang again. Will never get anything Turbo if it not a Porsche. It has to be a Naturally Aspirated or Supercharged. 🧖‍♂️👍🏎🏁🚩🌲⛰️🏞🧗 V8's Forever Ever

[@rapmeister1000]

Here’s a truck no one seems to ever remember, the Jeep Comanche with the 2.5L AMC I4. I owned one for a few years until my family outgrew it and I upgraded to a Caravan. Great little truck on paper. Good gas mileage for a low tech 4 banger. Could take a beating and keep on going as long as it never got wet. The engine electronics were prone to failure if they came into contact with any more moisture than fog. It literally left me stuck in a car wash.
