I really like the “base” options in trucks especially, and I appreciate the investment manufacturers have put into the low trims to make them look a lot better than a typical base truck.

Take a closer look at that hub at 2:43. The passenger side is no longer manually lockable, even though it looks like it. It is labeled that it can NOT be turned. And if you look close, it even says it in small type. Drivers side is still manually lockable. I asked Ford dealership about this and they said most SD 4x4 changed to this in 2023. No one has been able to explain why this change was made. Opportunity for you to reach out to a Ford engineer and ask.

I've had the XL off-road for a year now and I'm in love with it, plenty of power and looks like a real truck

Pricing is still astronomical. I paid a hair under 50k otd for my 2020 7.3 stx in Sept of 2020.

@nicktracy4118 6 ай бұрын

Interest rates were way lower. Which means people could afford to pay and a lot less were getting repossessed

XL Off Road Package will give you the shorter front air damn, 33s, skid plates etc. Not available with STX appearance though.

@nicktracy4118 6 ай бұрын

Yes it is. Maybe not the 33’s but they have the fx4 for stx

@ksrebel09 6 ай бұрын

@nicktracy4118 FX4 and XL off-road package are not the same thing. Fx4 is only skid plates and diff shocks.

@nicktracy4118 In the video? Yes. It does. That's my point. They were having issues with dragging the front air dam, which would be solved with the XL Off Road instead of an STX with FX4, because it has the short air dam and 33s.

The F250 V8 has so much power it is ridiculous. Take that hill with a little bit of momentum, boys.

You are probably new to our hill tests, or missed the part about this being a dealer loan. We will not scrape a dealer loan. Which is why we took were so cautious. We have several episodes of super duty’s going up our hill if you want to see manufacturer provided examples. We also take these as slow as possible to test mechanical grip. Thanks for watching.

Misdirected to call out the EPA as being the cause of anything mileage related on a SD pickup. EPA doesn't do mileage estimates on Superdutys. It is Ford that made the decision to add the large air dam so say "Thanks Ford"; not "Thanks EPA". Ha.

Off road package on the xl is a better mini tremor then the fx4 package. Better offfroad features and less comfort built

@curtshelp6170 8 ай бұрын

I'd get the XL off road and FX4 packages with 4.30 gears.

I have this exact truck for the 2023 year model. That air dam will take some punches and come back to its orginal form. I've sunk it to the frame several times and its just fine. The skid plate does not cover the trans cooler. So with the long wheel base its easy to damage it when going over the top off things. I definitely dinged mine up to the point of having to replace it. 800 bucks.

My only gripe no rear A/C which is needed in a big cab; more for us here in the South FLA. But the STX in the F150 does have a/c ducts on the back of the rear console. Great vid fellas

This would have been a better test with the XL off road package. Much better package for super duty off roading.

@Robert-ex2qp 3 ай бұрын

Is that lower valance really make that big of a difference on MPG? A 6.8L with 4.30 gears, MPG and Off-Road test would be cool.

I'm not impressed by the fact that the XL with STX package costs more then a standard XLT. Just get an XLT and the standard 7.3L V8. I'm not sure why the 6.8 even exists.

It’s not an off road truck by any means even tho it has the fx4 package but the truck weighs 7/8 thousand pounds. Even if you added tires the truck is way to heavy
