Great choice, great engine! Save the V8’s! Today’s work trucks are like luxury trucks from the 90’s. I recommend adding a Torsen diff like TrueTrac if you miss the locker; it works at all speeds, doesn’t need anything wired, and does a great job at controlling wheel slip in rough conditions. I added it on my last truck, a 2019 RAM 1500, and I actually prefer it over the e-locker in my current F150. I also recommend upgrading the bulbs in the headlights; they have a lot of great reasonably inexpensive LED bulbs available that plug right into the stock socket and provide much better light than the dim stock halogens. I also think the RAS kit does a better job towing then the heavier Ford leaf springs; stiffer when you need it, softer when you don’t. Be careful about forgetting to unplug the inverter when the truck is off; many sockets stay powered, and have no problem killing your battery to keep the inverter powered. I learned the hard way 😕

LED headlights are now standard on all F150’s for 2024! So is the 12” display, 12” digital dash, and 36 gallon fuel tank. Long live the Coyote V8!

I’d like to hear more about your issues with your last truck, and why they denied coverage; I bought the Ford ESP due to Ford telling me it was supported by the factory and was treated by Ford just like the 36-month bumper to bumper warrantee with the same coverage (minus any specific exceptions selected when buying the plan like rental\loaner vehicle availability). Maybe you can discuss this with Andre the next time you do a video or podcast with him.
@MrTruckTVАй бұрын
Both times when ESP denied paying for repairs. They wanted to blame me. Ford stepped in the first time and again this time. ESP did work fixing my cam phasers on the 3.5L. It's a long story that I might talk to Andre about.

@jimmyaber5920Ай бұрын
A 3.0 Duramax is not a long term owner's best bet. The service fornoil pump belt at 150K is a barebones repair at over 3 grand unless you have a cheap garage. The reality is that at 150k miles there stands a great chance the timing chain guides and maybe the chain and tensioner are needed. When youbpull transmission and transfer case to remove engine back end cover to do that belt, a conscientious mechanic is going to want to repair what he finds. That could make that oil pump belt grow to a more than $5k job or more.

I've always heard horror stories on extended warranties. They are all nice and glad to take your money. But when you need them, it's standard procedure to fight you every step of the way and wear you down. TFL has those ads for Grainger extended warranties now. I don't know if they are any better or not, but you might try them out. Too bad the base trucks are so expensive now. I've going to keep mine and replace parts until I can't buy parts anymore.
