The Most Underrated Package For The NEW F-150!

[@scottusry]

no matter what trim level, they all too high in price

[@anthonycorrales6705]

Exactly how do you expect people to buy when they are charging 80k for the f250 and more it’s sad to see it’s not affordable

[@santibanez91]

Trucks aren’t family vehicles anymore, the are luxury vehicles now. I talk to old timers and it’s crazy they used to buy trucks for a fraction of what they are now even accounting for inflation

[@josipdolic6391]

I did leather after on my 302…perfect

[@deerock7]

2 months ago I purchased the Azure Gray with black appearance pkg on a 2023 platinum f150 and it's an amazing look overall. the color combo with the 'blue gray' and black everywhere else is what sold me. it also comes with a dual exhaust even with the powerboost. the black 20" wheels from factory area great and I put 2.3" pucks in the front to bring it up high enough to install 285/65/r20 grappler tires. Really happy with it. Best truck I've ever had so far! thx for the detailed video, always enjoy watching your series.

Nice truck but it costs as much as a mobile home! I'm not spending 70 or 80k for a truck. I'll keep my paid-off Honda which should last another 200k miles.

[@Nate-zy5ce]

Nice. A question. I get why someone might purchase the Platinum or Platinum Plus instead of the Lariat, for the extra interior luxury, and probably associated smoother highway drive, but do you know, is there anything about either the Lariat or one of the Platinums that makes it better than the other off road? However little that difference might be. And if there is, can anything be optioned or done after market to improve the laggard to make up that difference? Thanks.

[@stevesaunders6235]

My biggest problem with ford is that they only offer the cool packages like tremor, black and now heritage on the 5.5 foot box. A lot of us buying trucks still need that extra foot of box length so I just ordered a sport and did tires and level myself

[@evictioncarpentry2628]

​@Phillip Baker I own both and the extra foot still makes a huge difference.

[@4LEAFCLOVER1980]

Lariat Black Appearance package is basically the F-150 Tremor items in black instead of Orange on a Lariat from what I see. It’s nice though.

[@JJJ5.7]

Black appearance doesn't include tremor lift, suspension upgrades, off road drive features, trail decent, torson front diff not available, etc. Black appearance is just appearance. Tremor is true step towards raptor.

[@rp3823]

Loved seeing the Ford F-150 again. I almost thought everything was a Bronco? … Would love to see a video explaining the lift blocks and the upgraded leaf spring package differences. Love that wheel and tire combo too! 😎🍷🛻

[@customthingz4430]

You guys above with your videos. Well done!!! For me in Canada it’s been 8months since I’m waiting for my black v8 fx4 with black appearance. It’s gonna be a nice build

[@goatk1]

Here I was thinking he was gonna dodge the 6’3” trademark but clutch!

[@kylesummers1565]

Unless you are just concerned with looks, I would look at a Tremor or an FX4 with the Torsen front differential for utility. These trucks look amazing though! Kudos to Ya'll for the aftermarket adds! I understand that I may not be a typical 1/2-ton buyer, so don't hate too much. I just want a capable truck to last 10 years with minimal issues. By the way, I "liked" your video because your aesthetics are Great! Peace, Love!!

[@jdwht2455]

Nice but IMO, all black has gone the way of the gooney bird. I love my Ruby Red F150 XLT Super Cab. After 2 Lariat SDs crews, a V10 and a 6.7, it for sure is not a let down as far as trim level except for the fact I forgot to check leather seats

[@mikeh.9954]

What's this truck run? $129,000?

[@jacobpal3660]

What light blade did you use? It’s not listed in the details. Thanks

[@normanc5371]

My 2013 F150 Platinum 4x4 with a 5.0 was $39600. Now they're mid 70's... My 07 LX Honda Accord was low 20's now they're high 20's. Ford and Ford Dealers better get with the program before you starve! I will buy another one when or if the market adjustments are made. A half ton truck is NOT worth that kind of money.

[@alvinclose8181]

That is going to be my next truck for sure

[@Nate-qc8kb]

Bought myself an F-150. A "lower" trim package. Then put in my own leather, cameras, $5k sound system, Wheels n tires, lift, tint, bed cover, bed liner, LED lights all around, black badges..and the list goes on...I essentially made it fully loaded and then some!! If I had paid for all of that from Ford, I've have spent $17+ more than I did and got less of the stuff I listed. The markups from the dealerships are UNREAL and just not worth it. Get it done after market!

[@JCASEYPENDLETON]

[@hvac.animation]

Looks great always top quality builds on here. I love my Lariat with Sport package but absolutely hate the power tailgate. If there is a kit to convert back to cable please let me know.

[@SureRon]

Wondering why you hate it?

[@wanderfully4724]

Why do you hate it? I would love to have that

[@hvac.animation]

It's such a finicky thing to operate. Trying to find the tiny button on the handle while tailgate is open is almost pointless. Lift the tailgate and hold for 3 seconds.... Not 2 seconds to close, I may as well close fully. It's so random if the tailgate will open with the remote and tailgate button, just double beeps and doesn't open. Try again and it opens?? Have tried with doors locked vs unlocked, same double beep problem. Many times have initiated to close and walked away but return to an open tailgate so now I stand and confirm it closes, again just do it myself quicker. I also tow a couple trailers where the Jack is in the way so have to be careful with the tailgate opening on its own. If you hold the tailgate while opening to avoid hitting the jack it fights you open close a couple times before gives up and stops. If I disable power tailgate option on menu screen it reverts back to power tailgate next time I turn on truck. Took in for service and was told they did something, seems better but still random opening issue with the double beep and try again.

[@wanderfully4724]

@@hvac.animation oh wow.. ok you have me totally rethinking it. That sounds super annoying! Yea if it is that finicky and takes 3 seconds to close I could do it manually so much easier. Also your point about the jack. We had that issue as well and had to carefully hold the TG so it wouldn’t hit (just converted to a Jack e up so not an issue anymore) Good points… sounds like ford needs to re-engineer… oh and throw Canadian winters with salt/ corrosion on those electronics and it is likely even worse!

[@1984Cutlass2nv]

That is one sexy looking truck. Reminds me of the tremor in a good way. But yes they are way too expensive. That's why I'm still driving an 18 year old truck for work every day.

[@Nate-zy5ce]

Am I reading that FX4 list at just after the 2 min mark correctly, does that reference to the front differential mean that the Lariat comes with the Front Torsion Diff that the Tremor comes with? If so, do any other versions, the Platinum or Platinum plus maybe? I love that blackout package. Hope it's still available in 2025 models. I love that dual exhaust too.

[@Add12this]

can someone explain where the overlap is between "i need 6 inches of lift" and "i dont go offroad enough to justify upgrading the rear springs" ? is this just for mall crawlers?

[@IgnitionSource]

Mitchell, the hood scoops mention in this review do not function as heat extractors and are cosmetic on my 22 Tremor. Has Ford made the scoops functional on the 23 models now? If not, you should revise this video since you're trying to sell a product.

[@TCcustoms_]

I truly thought they were functional! If you are correct, that is my bad!

[@IgnitionSource]

@Town and Country TV seems like Ford went backwards with their decision-making on certain features for their vehicles. My 2015 Mustang GT has functional vents, surprise it's not a standard practice on all of their modern vehicles. Especially ones with twin turbochargers. Also, the 22s don't have nearly the amount of internal ambient lighting that is in the 21 model years. This I think was a pandemic shortage issue, but still noticeable when looking back at prior years.

[@quadkrazykeith]

Most dealers have their heads up their asses when it comes to the black appearance packages, they should order em all with it.

[@edmundh]

Why are the Black Appearance only available with the stubby (5.5') box? This impacts the Lariat trim (as in this video) but is also true for the XLT, meaning the only way to get leather in the XLT is to sacrifice a foot of bed space. This makes NO sense, as this package has nothing to do with the bed of the truck.
