Ab Remcon I’m sure his take would be the same as mine after seeing way to many Chrysler products in the shop over a 30 plus year time span. Chrysler’s QC has sucked since the 60’s, they have a few great drivetrain components over the years (transmissions are not one of them since the late 90’s) it’s the little stuff that piles up that drives people nuts.

@OutMotorsports4 жыл бұрын
Hey there. It's always interesting when people go to thoughts of sex before like, relationships or simple attraction. Anyway. The point of the channel existing (and the website, Facebook, Instagram) is that there's this stigma - whether it's true or not - that if you're going to be a LGBT car/truck enthusiast, autocrosser, racer, rallycrosser, etc., you shouldn't show up as your whole self to meets and events. Others talk about their girlfriends and wives but it's easier if you keep your boyfriend quiet. Heaven forbid you're trans, some people will just walk away when they find that out. We built this thing because much like someone has to be the first person on the dance floor at a wedding, someone has to be the first person to show other LGBT folks that you can show up as your authentic self and not only be tolerated, but embraced. Not everyone sees the point in that, and that's okay. But if this channel gets to some kid who's a car enthusiast and also questioning their identity, makes them understand "you can be both" and prevents years of struggle or worse, self-harm, we've succeeded. We appeal to the LGBT+ community first and foremost, and the feedback we receive on that end is nothing but positive.

Great video. Thing is I had the opposite problem. I had purchased a brand new 2016 Ram 1500 sport. Beautiful truck, I only had it for 2yrs and just 50,000 miles. Alot of electrical problems. Hemi tick, replaced manifolds, two harnesses and a camera for tailgate. Interior overhead console. But the big problem was check engine light kept coming on. Each time you cleared codes 4 random different codes would come up. But the main problem was it kept saying BCM not communicating. And Ram couldn't guarantee a fix...so I traded it in for a Ford f250 6.2 love it . Just not happy at all with Ram quality and them not standing behind their products...

Differents is huge inside and out. Love it . Really great truck for my needs. And about transmission. Since 2013 Ram has 8 speed one . It's stellar.

Whether its a ford with engine problems or a dodge with transmission problems or whatever, i think that the service in connection to the issue is what makes or breaks a customers choice of purchase. Its cool that the guy still thinks pretty highly of ford, but chryslers willingness (in this case) to handle the issue now and here still under warranty says it all. Between my fiancee and i, we have 4 chryslers (‘05 sebring, ‘10 dakota, ‘97 t&c, ‘04 durango), and they all run great! Ill be fair to say that they tend to burn oil, develop minor leaks, and are more prone to electrical issues as they get older (in my experience). That said, keeping the fluids topped of and keeping up on routine maintenance goes a long way and keeps these thirsty machines rolling, i cant complain :)

Have a 2019 f150 with v8. Doesnt burn oil but the transmission was shifting a little jerky. Took it to the dealer and they told me because i changed the stock tires to some beefier 33inch tires, the shifting points of the transmission were a little miss calibrated. They re calibrated the shifting tables of the transmission and reset the ECU, now it drives like a beast and smooth as when i had stock tires. There are so many ford f150s out there, 3times the amount of the next best seller so theres bound to be some lemons. But the good proper trucks of the batch run like a dream and the others just cant compare.

ReAding tons of complaints from actual owners in forums. I finally scratched that move and bought a new tundra.

I went in for the service bulletin and got really lucky , the technician actually cared and said listen the tsb wont work we need to replace all four vct solenoids , it was a huge job. Thev also inspected the timing chain . My problem is now 90% fixed I rarely ever hear it and if I do it's not nearly as loud, I'm also very picky with noises but that's just me . I was told the noises were normal ... and would cause no damage. Dont believe it guys a metal ratcheting sound is never normal and you cant guarantee me that my truck wont have premature engine failure. What proves it for me is the fact that ford installed 4 updated vct solenoids that were designed to fix the noise lolll so there's the proof . If anyone needs help just ask I'll send a picture of the dealer work order .

Bought a 2010 F150 (4.6v8) upon returning from my tour of Iraq to treat myself. Within 2 years, the steering wheel had a weird clicking to it with every turn (was told everything was ok when taken to the dealership). When I got out of the service, the engine would literally start to stall on the expressway, which is quite an event commuting everyday for college. The truck had less that 70k miles and was meticulously maintained. Needless to say, first thing I did upon graduating nursing school was to save enough money and bought myself a brand new Silverado 1500 with the 5.3. Hope this truck lasts longer than the Ford.

Organization pays off! Ford came back with, basically, their version of the story and a "no settlement" offer - their take was missing some key facts (i.e. my service visit where the truck stayed for 30 days). I had everything organized and was able to draft a response in an hour as a result. Managed to get the full buyback settlement without ever sitting down for arbitration.

Had a somewhat similar story with a 2020 f150 and transmission. Ultimately attempted a buy back but ford gave me the runaround then ghosted me. Ended up trading it to end the headache.

Sooo it's a lease. Run it and if it breaks and its their baby. Not sure why this was even an issue. Your lease is covered by a bumper to bumper. Let it break and if it doesnt give it back. It's not your truck. I could see if you purchased it but you have an out. I'd see why you would shy away from Ford after that, but I'm similar to you and wend from a 2011 f150 but I traded and purchased a 2016 f150. You cant beat aluminum when it comes to rust. The ram is nice if you don't run it in the winter.

I gave the video another attempt and I came to the same conclusion. Why bother with lemon law type stuff when you'll never own it and the warranty will be good the entire time you have it. Let it blow up if they don't want to fix it. Then they'll have to put a new engine in it or give you another identical truck. I mean I like my Ram but mostly because it's the diesel/AISIN.

Goes back to the cardinal rule. Don’t buy a car with a newly designed engine or trans for the first couple years so they can work out the bugs. The old coyote 5.0 is bulletproof. I would never buy a dodge however if I did the hemi is their best engine.

It seems the big 3 are problematic. The tundra is very dated looking and thirsty , but reliable. Every time I see a video like this, I figure I'll just keep what I have.... reliable and decent mpgs. Any suggestions. P.s. I don't tow and I really don't use a truck besides diy home Depot stuff. Thanks

I hate to say this but you jumped from the frying pan and into the fire. The 5.7 Hemi's are wiping out camshaft lobes like crazy due to seized lifter roller bearings. It's about a $4000 fix. Happening anywhere from 70-100k miles. There are videos all over KZbin if you're interested. On another note, I also have a 2018 F150 5.0 liter with that same exact noise. Did the TSB reflash, still there. Now it has 20k on it and the thing runs flawlessly still. Is he noise annoying? Absolutely. As long as she keeps running, I can deal with it. Good luck with the new truck and great video.

Yeah, I knew about the camshaft concern. Truck only has 46k on it now and is CPO'd for the next 3 years or 'til 100k miles. Given my car-ADD, I suspect that'll cover me just fine, should anything happen. From what I read, the issues are largely with the earlier Hemis and mid-2015ish saw some parts updated to help avoid this?

Sentrell Rodriguez I never run into issues on my 05 Escape, 2012 Grand Caravan, or 2015 Grand Cherokee when I run the motors cold, freezing cold. Ford puts those shudders on for efficiency reasons, it gets better MPG’s on highway and it’s more efficient to heat up faster. They didn’t do it because they feared it would make noises when cold, it shouldn’t do that anyway. Don’t defend junk dude, automakers need to start building these things proper if they’re going to be shoving all of this tech into them.
