Is a 5.0L Ford F150 Worth It?

[@oldeskoole]

I just got my very first truck, a 2020 F150 with the 5.0L Coyote, traded in my 2018 Focus for it. I am no gear head and have never had much interest in cars or trucks because I never thought I'd be able to afford a cool one. I was very hesitant on getting this truck. it was expensive, but in my price range. Still, why spend extra money? What caught my interest is when they said it had a V8. Even a noob like me wouldn't want a big ass truck with a little V6 in it and I thought that was all I could afford. So, I test drove it.... Holy shit! It is something else driving a big powerful truck around, especially compared to all the cheap cars I've owned in the past. I had to get used to the throttle! Now I am in love with trucks and all I have been doing is watching videos like this lately. Thank you so much for the info and making me feel better about my purchase!

after driving 3/4 ton Ram Cummins diesels for 19 years I traded for an 2015 F150 5.0. I bought the truck for this specific engine. Simple, not stressed, no complex turbos, no cylinder de-activation, no direct injection, an engine with 400,000 miles potential life in it. After 3 years of driving, I'm happy with my choice. And of course nothing sounds like a V8. :)

Actually the F150 didn’t get the 5.0 until 2011. The 09-10 still had the three valve 5.4 triton.

[@bloodruststaples]

5.0 is a legendary rock-solid V8 with crazy potential tucked away, that arguably gives you the best power for its size off the lot, and it loves higher rpms, where it really screams all day long.

[@jimsteinway695]

The 5.0 doesn’t have as much potential as the 3.5 unless you tear it open and do cams and pistons etc. you can get 100 more out of the 3.5 with a simple software tune. You’re right about having it power on top of the power band but that’s for cars going down the track. But for trucks you need power down low. The 3.5 is so good Ford put it in the GT

[@crewdawg2008]

Dead on the money. The 5.0 has more potential than any other engine Ford offers in the F150. EcoBoosts are already turbocharged, so all that's left is a tune, maybe bigger turbos, and more fuel. Can't really go much further than that. The 5.0 can have boost added plus all that other stuff, and best of all, it's ready for bolt on boost without needing any other reinforcement, which is uncommon among NA engines. If you want to spend some money on an F150 engine to get the most possible power, the 5.0 is the only option.

[@slowstang88]

​@jimsteinway695 the 5.0 doesn't have the water pump behind the timing cover..

​@jimsteinway695 If the 3.5L EcoBoost V6 is so good then why did Ford made the 6.8L and 7.3L Godzilla V8s as base gas engines in the Super Duty and not the 3.5L EcoBoost V6?

5.0 baby Don’t get me wrong with 3.5 eco-boost is a beast of a motor and also this new 2.7 eco-boost is also a really good strong motor but I’m just an old school dude that enjoys a V-8, I don’t have to worry about turbos. I don’t have to worry crab gathering on my valves and the leaking oil pan that people are complaining about. I know the 3.5 also had issues with the screen at the end of the tube that feeds the turbo sometimes clogged up and that’s what’s causing turbo to burn out due to the crap in the oil from the turbos. I just wanna be able to change the oil change oil filters and keep going I don’t wanna worry about any of that stuff and a good v8 does that for me

[@MT-wn6pl]

Nobody has a crystal ball on any truck. But, the main thing is, if you take care of your truck, the odds are in your favor that it will take care of you regardless of 3.5 or 5.0. This fact is WAY more important than the engine itself imo. My Eco now has 92,000 miles on it, running strong. The main difference to me is the low RPM range on the Eco vs the higher RPM range on the 5.0. I have a 33 foot trailer I tow, my mind likes the fact that the engine doesn't have to revolve as much in the ECO vs the 5.0 when towing up (and down) hills. The Eco just glubs along at 2.5k, nice and easy, that crankshaft never gets too excited. It does sound like my high school honda though.

[@timscruggs7611]

I bought a '17 F150 with the 5.0 coyote and wouldn't have anything else! It has more low end power where I need it and still really good mpg.

[@frankvucolo6249]

Ordered my new truck yesterday. 5.0 all the way even though I have to wait for the configuration I want. Naturally aspirated and dual GDI/Port Injection. That’s huge to me. Why add two turbos and all the complicated tech required to make a mid-size car engine pull a full size truck? Though initial performance is comparable on the 3.5 and the 5.0, reliability, longevity and repairability go to the Coyote, hands down. Of course, if you are the kind of person who likes to get a new truck every few years, this doesn’t matter. But if you like to keep your trucks for the long run and pay attention to use, care and maintenance discipline, Coyote is the only way to go.

Used to have an '03 Dodge Ram that I absolutely loved. But this thing is pretty sick, definitely a way nicer truck. This is the generation however that has cylinder deactivation so it's pointless as it is and as infrequently as it tends to actually kick in, all I can think is that is a new system on the engine that can have some kind of failure state. The last thing I would want is for something to trip that system up so that I'm stuck on 4 cylinders. But I'm not necessarily too worried about it.

I would like to have some of the newer active safety features such as the automatic emergency braking system to avoid front collisions, but not as critical as long-term reliability and durability. Any suggestions for a late model pickup truck with Direct and Port Injection. Also, what immediate and affordable engine and transmission mods for reliability and durability do you recommend to protect the powertrain? I’m not looking for more power, just long-term reliability and durability as I don’t have too much money and need a truck for work and personal use. Thank you!

I'm daily driving a 12 f150 with the coyote. Gas prices suck. But it's so damn fun

[@CustomOffsetsTV]

Yeah, if these fuel prices could relax a bit that'd be greatttt!

Awesome ! I just got into a 2014 5.0 ! But some 22s on 33s with that 12.50 wide stance !! No spacers needed the slightest littlest wheel well rub 💪🏼🔥 Looks amazing

I trade in my 2019 ford f150 3.5 ecoboost for a 2023 f150 with the 5.0 v8 just for the sound of it, no regrets 😎 and i did a muffler delete

5.0 - Every time!!! Just ordered a 24 XLT with the 5.0 to replace the 22 Lariat 5.0 which my Son is going to buy...

[@thegrapevine10]

Bought a 2011 F150 5.0 supercrew with 101k. It's a solid truck, BUT I sold it and purchased a 2018 F150 3.5 ecoboost, and the difference is day and night when you get to high elevation and the 5.0 guzzles gas like I guzzle beer. Mpg is way better, and it sounds like a mini rig.

[@joshcummings4842]

He says 2009 but I believe it was 2011 model where 3.5 EcoBoost and the 5.0L v8 were introduced. In 2009, the 6 speed automatic transmission replaced the 4 speed auto. Great video nonetheless 👍

[@johnnielampin2165]

I've got a 2018 5.0. Love it. Ask Derrick for pics.

[@bravofoxtrotllc6817]

My 2013 STX 5.0 now has 170,000 miles on it, I replaced a radiator hose because the o ring was leaking and the Purge Solenoid in the last 9 years, thats it! no leaks, no problems, no engine lights or codes, just runs brilliantly everyday!

Ecoboost in my ST and Coyote in my F150. The larger displacement ecoboosts seem to have issues. Meanwhile my 2.0 is pushing the same crank HP as the Coyote and hasn't had a hiccup in 6 years.

What oil are you using? Thanks

[@TheDylanPlayer14]

Is it just me or does 40 million seem like a small number for f series trucks sold in 75 years. I mean we're talking about the number one selling vehicle in the whole world, the f150. Plus if you're saying f series, that also includes f250, 350, and 450.

[@stevesaunders6235]

I just ordered a 2022 with the 3.5 ecoboost but I lease them if I planned on keeping it outside of warranty I would have got the 5.0

I kind of want the turbskis

[@Lup3r]

Looking into getting a new truck with the Coyote engine in it. Coming from a twin turbo BMW... I really think I'd rather stick with a naturally aspirated, high revving, reliable engine. Maybe one day I'll even throw a super charger on it, but 380 is way better than the 280 my old tahoe got.

[@danielalfredocastro8365]

Owning a 14 f150 coyote im sure a lot of the towing difference is because ford wanted to push the ecoboost as the top of the line engine and thus equiped all 5.0l with softer suspension (which is the softest suspension ive ever had on a truck even vs my old 4cyl s10)

[@mikewood6071]

I just bought a 2024 XLT with a 5.0. Turn down the radio and listen ☺️☺️☺️ Nothing sounds quite like it

[@billylarge7459]

So loved the video it was very informative. But my question is this is a 2015 2gen cyote a good investment ? Found one that pushes all my buttons sense I am a ram guy my dad was a ford guy so should I pull the plug and get a cyote

[@dougbourdo2589]

I bought a year & a half old 2018 F150 XLT with 5.0 but I do not know if it is a Coyote engine. It had 30 miles when I bought it and now it sits at 99k miles. I used it to move my entire household from WI to NM and piled on the miles. It commonly gets 20+ mpg & has tons of power. Are there any common engine issues when mileage gets high ? The way things are these days, I will rebuild the engine & trans if needed before buying anything new.

[@bigp6071]

I have a 2018 as well. 2018 is the worst year for the 5.0 due to oil consumption. Does is replacing my engine but it’s been on back order for 9 months with no eta in sight.
