2021 Ford F-150 Lariat PowerBoost Review // $60,000 Powerhouse
Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 бер 2021
- The 2021 Ford F-150 Lariat Powerboost (Starting at CAD $61,000 USD $52,695) is filled with what packed with a bunch of new technology and a slightly different new look. It has all the makings of the ultimate utility vehicle. With its 360-degree lighting, onboard power generator, tailgate measuring and cutting station, easy to use digital gauges, and trailer tow package it's a perfect workhorse for any operation. You could even tow a racecar behind it. Don’t tell Thomas. Watch! SUBSCRIBE!!!

Hey everyone! Hope you all enjoyed the video! A note: We know Thomas said that the body panels might rust, but clearly that part is Aluminum. Don't worry we are adding a correction and Thomas' Canadian citizenship has been temporarily revoked. He has been punished by being forced to traverse the Rocky Mountains twice, and consume 32 gallons of Maple Syrup. In the meantime, James is officially the team Canadian. God help us all...
Okay it’s been fixed! But thomas is still gonna serve his time
Not the maple syrup 😭🤣🤣
You guys are so prompt. Kudos and add to Thomas's punishment he has to serve Pountine to any random stranger who knocks on his door for 2 weeks.
Yep. F150's have been aluminium bodied for around six years, now. Still wouldn't hurt to Krown it.
It'll allow you to make good use of your french fry sponsor.
Haha came to correct yall lol
F150: 0-60 in 5.3 Seconds
BRZ Owners: *Heavy sweating and taking notes*
Reported!!! Hahaha jk
Heheh yep
Honestly, the F150 is probably just as fast around a track too
@@dammyo6010 nah not with all that weight
Violation LOL
The intro never fails to make me laugh.
Jesus Christ people, yes, we know.
@@yourmommashouse chill dude
@@griffinedmondson5896 well since you said so
I’m Thomas...AND IM JAMES!
The sound when he hits his head...perfect
On the topic of the Texas snow storm that killed our electricity, there was a Ford dealership in my area (west Texas) that were lending out these new F-150's to people so they could power their homes.... real nice people
That is incredible!
Nothing like Texans helping each other out 👍🏼
That's awesome! I'm from Lubbock and I didn't hear about it, but that's pretty cool.
@jess h that "storm" killed people mf. Do you think that the people or infrastructure of Tijuana and Juárez are prepared for a week long freeze, or have made enough investments in snow ploughs to keep up with several days of consecutive snow? San Antonio is over 100 miles south of each of them, roughly the same latitude as Hermosillo and Kuwait. Austin is the same latitude as Jacksonville and Cairo. All these cities aren't exactly known for their snow storms.
@jess h I get that it may have been a seasonal occurrence in many parts of the country that are prepared for that kind of thing, but to us it looks like mockery or victim blaming. It's like people dont understand that San Antonio is 350 miles south of Los Angeles and that expecting them to be prepared for even a little freeze is like expecting New York to be prepared for something we experience every summer like 100 days of 100 degree heat.
4:03 "you've got men in your throat?"
you guys never fail to make me laugh
It even left Thomas speechless lol
🤣🤣
@@mattwilcox8134 a common problem in that situation.

8:40 "can you grab that?" "Absolutely, yea" (turns around and ignores Thomas) - LOL!!
This killed me lol!!
Randy Jones used his Powerboost F-150’s onboard generator to power his 75” TV and coffee pot during the Texas blackouts while others froze or were hit with $15,000 electric bills. All it cost him was a few gallons of unleaded. What a boss 😎👍👍
15000$ electric bill probably going to need more than 1000 gallon.
Also, generation that much of energy will reduce the engine live massively. It like driving 40k kilometers.
@@1ossksa the $15,000 bills weren't from excessive use. They were from rates that skyrocketed to 100 times their normal level since they had no cap. Of course he didn't use as much electricity as he normally would have, but he was still able to power a heater, refrigerator, freezer, microwave and TV so he was able to stay fairly comfortable. Others had no choice. I'd say he's the clear winner here.
Also TFL NOW in their BMW I3 charging review showed that even at max generating level (7KW) the F-150 Powerboost engine speed remained at 1.000 rpm for the duration of their test. That's hardly stressing the engine.
OMG, THAT LAST SENTENCE really just poured salt in the wound James!! "it's a BMW they don't go anywhere anyway" killer absolutely killer!!
@@saltyfloridaman7163 I totally agree!! I'm from south Florida but don't tell that to any of the one million Venezuelans in Weston I think 95% of them drive BMW POS's!!!!!
I literally just thought the other day... “I hope Throttle House reviews the new F-150” - my prayers have been answered
Lucky you and God/Gods? hearing your prayers.
it's true, they've tapped into our minds. It happened to me with the Genesis
@@saadafm yeah I was waiting for that Genesis video too lol
Another solid intro boys
Wow, production quality is incredible! Kudos to you and your whole team, you guys all do an amazing job in making everything look like a full fledged professional funded TV show
This shits all over 99% of tv shows.
James is petty (hilariously, of course)😂 and Thomas is surprisingly limber😭💀
Just to the comment about rusting as you pull on the bedside - all F series trucks are aluminum body. Frame is of course steel.
Yep your right! We will add a correction.
Came here to say this!
@@ThrottleHouse how did you not know this? You guys are supposed to know everything. lol, j/k
@@ThrottleHouse You're*. Add that correction too, LMAO.
@@phunkdoctaspock LOL
Just another brilliant production! Thomas, James and the crew don't disappoint, only getting better with every episode. Thank you for making work bearable :-) You guys aren't going anywhere!
Videos on this channel are edited like a true professional production. You guys are great obviously but whoever edits these and finalizes them does an amazing job as well.
The onscreen chemistry is so good. You guys are killing it. The top gear vibes are just so strong and I mean that as the highest compliment!!
Throttle house is quality entertainment and informative. You guys make everything seem fun. Truly enjoyable.
There is so much quality and production value in these videos that if we lived in a time with no UA-cam, this would legit be a TV series.
I never cease to be entertained or laugh my ass off and also learn something with this show. Y'all really deserve to have your own car show like Top Gear. Outside of the old Top Gear show and The Grand Tour, y'all have the best (by far) car show on the internet and better than what's on cable TV.
Imo way better than TG. The impact TG has had as a pioneer is nothing to be discredited, but as far as the best blend of info & entertainment for the auto enthusiast has to be TH imho. And considering their much smaller budget and car access... game over. Again.... imho.
@@upshifter5316 I agree. I just meant that since Too Gear laid the foundation, nothing has been close. These guys definitely have equaled and or surpassed anything available.
They have so much more freedom on UA-cam. Going on to a network channel would ruin the show.
In the future, there will be a wireless phone charger built into the tailgate 😎
This has me thinking. If/when Ford ever goes to an all electric f150, a custom or standard bed cover that is a solar panel would be sweet!😁
That exist already
@@SecAA-jj7mv I know he is so behind lol
@@SecAA-jj7mv With what company?
@@SecAA-jj7mv what car is it guy?
Two things: The U-Haul Car Hauler’s fender folds down on the driver’s side. I towed my car 3 times before learning that. Also, F-150s have aluminum alloy bodies over steel frames. So if it rusts it may split in half, but at least the body should look fine...
Was gonna say that about the trailer fender too. Also, the brakes on the trailer only activate if the trailer becomes disconnected from the hitch - they don't assist with stopping while towing.
@@johnhand2992 I'm not sure that's quite true about the trailer brakes. I believe it's a surge brake system. It's a hydraulic system that uses the weight of the trailer pushing against the hitch to activate the brakes.
@@dennisgrabowski7738 hmm could be. I noticed the brakes weren't helping me when I was backing the loaded trailer down my steep driveway and my truck was still getting pulled down the hill with my brakes completely locked up. I mentioned it to the Uhaul employee and they said it was only emergency brakes. Maybe they just don't work if the load is pulling on the hitch instead of pushing.
@@johnhand2992 A true surge brake isn't designed to work in reverse. There's actually a pin your supposed to insert that locks the moving parts of the trailer tongue to prevent it from locking up the brakes when moving backwards. Not sure if this is how U-haul's smaller car carriers are set up. They often get damaged by customers too and local mom & pop U-haul centers aren't really known for their maintenance up keep.
came here to say this
Loving the content & always have. You guys are so funny with the one-liners & jokes as well as the info of the many vehicles you both have driven. Keep up the great work.
I never get bored when chilling with these two. I like them. 🤙
No doubt you guys make the best car content on youtube. Funny,informative, well produced..you've got it all
Great job Ford. I can't believe all the accessories and comforts that Ford has incorporated in a pickup truck. I wish I had one. Having the ability to have an electrical outlet at your disposal is awesome. Great job I can't wait to buy one used
6:10
Wow, being so genuine now.
This camera sequence alone shows the absolute quality of this channel, especially in these past few videos it’s been not only a massive step-up for you but a massive step up for UA-camrs in general.
Throttle House used to be better than the average motortrend show or new top gear in entertainment, but now you have more information, more excitement and sublime quality.
I wish I was able to subscribe twice!
To be fair he did completely lose focus AND changed ND filters in the middle of shooting .... but I get it lol
You guys literally make the best intros in the business. I love you guys so much. Please keep doing this forever.
You guys make the most entertaining but still content-relevant auto reviews on UA-cam, hands down.
That generator feature is incredible!! Great for tradesman, but also perfect for emergencies.
I'm drinking my brown tea while watching, so I completely approve of James' tailgate tea party! Great use of that outlet. 😂
Them being in Canada and Thomas being Canadian just makes me so happy and proud of our Canadian brothers
One of the best episodes yet. Fantastic.
Maaaaan, I hope they keep this channel going FOREVER!! Cars, facts, and comedy....can't beat it
Good thing they mentioned the cylinder deactivation and worries. Stellar and fun review as usual.
During the winter storm in Texas, Ford told dealerships that had F-150s with onboard generators to lend then out to people to power their homes. Don't know if that story got the notoriety it deserved but good on Ford for that.
Ha! That e46 brought back some memories. I got into this channel back when it was just Thomas trying to cobble together two e46s. Nice to see that story arc finally coming around. :D
Picked ours up last week, very comfortable daily driver with a great amount of power. Ford interiors have come a long way, i think its great and this is coming from someone who also owns an M3 and X6M.
Just bought one yesterday and watched this again today for the satisfaction. Couldn't agree more with the positive points and couldn't be happier with my purchase.
Few things in life bring me as much joy as a new ThrottleHouse video!
One of the best episodes lately, vlog style, love it.
Great video! I love my 2021 f150. It's big for city driving but so nice when i have to load up and go to the cottage. Everything fits!
12:50 that’s the problem, once you get in something like this, everything else starts feeling cramped, and you eventually end up with a truck.
Yup, as a European in the US, I NEVER understood trucks. Now I'm married to an American lady, we bought a farm/house with land and guess what she picked up 2 weeks ago. An F150. Used 2017 mind you, but still. I GET IT NOW. Trucks are nice.
Full size American sedans do a pretty good job. Taurus and impala do a pretty good job at feeling spacious and suiting their American needs
@@chango.-. Neither of which are in production anymore.
The cabin feels bigger than it looks on the outside, like a magician's hat.
@@richardnavratil9661 lmao wait what.... I didn't know they got rid of the impala?
Your content keeps getting better and better. It’s not even worth arguing about the F-150 because I enjoy your videos so much.
Bought an F150 King Ranch Powerboost 2-weeks ago and I love it.
I truly enjoy your car reviews, more than any others. It's always fun but doesn't overlook the critical issues. And you show us some outrageously high-end cars too. Will you be testing other brands of trucks, especially if you're looking to get one for your crew? I'll be interested in what you ultimately choose, if so.
This was a throttle house video I wanted but didn’t think I would get! Fantastic work!
Your videos just keep getting better! I would 100% buy this if I needed a new truck today, we live in a rural area on several acres and the generator would be amazingly useful for doing work around the property (we have a 7kw honda generator as a backup for the house already but I guess I could sell that and make up a good chunk of the trucks cost).
Throttle House - click for the cars, stay for the intros
Well said, my friend, well said... :-)
The only channel I watch and click the like button before the video even begins. Very entertaining As always
I am a gas and diesel technician, in this I've learned to really dislike Ford pickups... until now!
Except for EVERYTHING being more difficult to work on across the board. The capability, technology, safety and power is just incredible! We are living in the Golden years of automotive technology. A BIG CONGRATS AND THANK YOU TO ALL OF THE AUTO MAKERS! 💙♥️
At least until stuff breaks. Do cars these days even have limp modes?
Being a Canadian this was by far one of my favorite skits you guys have done so far!
Everyone: 'walkie-talkie'
James: 'wohl-keeh tohl-keeh'
“This steel is thin.” It’s aluminum and it won’t rust. The whole body has been aluminum since 2015. Great review as usual.
I’m not one to come to Fords defense but I was thinking the same thing. These guys are great so they are entitled to a slip up every now and again
I like your channel, you are funny and entertaining and you review cars that normal people buy, not only super cars which most cant even dream of.
I have seen many reviews of the 2021 but 'Thottle-House' is one of the best.
The space and utility is addicting. I bought a second car, an xterra and I feel myself wanting to drive that more over my malibu due to the extra space and in the winter the 4x4 😎
The become more and more old Top Gear each video!
And we love it
God Bless You guys,You light up people's day by every intro you do and review😎😎😎
im impressed how smooth the gauge cluster is
Is that Scottish...
I sincerely hope you guys never stop!
Love the content, love humor!
More enjoyable to watch than 95% of Netflix, Disney and Prime content combined!
The truck bed & fenders aren’t steel they are aluminum.
Love it when Thomas says "it needs to" have the word boost everywhere
It is just fun watching car guys do truck reviews!! I'm gonna bring my motorcycles to Canada just to have you guys review them! 🤣
Damn Thomas got burned too a crisp this episode lol.
He can handle it. He's an E46 Owner.
I'm new to this channel. And I love these intros 😂
You are in for a treat on their intros.....
Just stumbled across you guys. Excellent Channel. I do own an F-150, 2021 Lariat with 2.7 EcoBoost. Great truck for those of us that use a truck like a really big car or maybe a 70's era full size station wagon. Keep up the great work
Y'all are hilarious, I like this change in style of video/review too. Do both!
RIP Karston's pants
I feel like something is different in this episode and I like it. Editing? camera angles? dunno. favorite car review channel.
I like the incorporation of a story line into the review, its really different and I dig it.
This is the exact model I was hoping you would review. Well done.
Great video! Not only fun to watch, but nice to look at too! Awesome banter and camerawork!
FYI the F150 body is aluminum ;)
To be fair, the day I would notice that my aluminum bodied pickup was starting to rust I'd be really worried. ;)
One of the funniest “car” reviews I’ve ever seen! I died when James said “you know why it’s not going anywhere... it’s because it’s a bmw and they don’t go anywhere” 😂
Omg, that was the best video I’ve seen in months, the ending was especially great, oh James!
Just picked my Lariat Powerboost with the 7.2kw up on 3/27/21. Absolutely love it. Went to where I store my travel trailer and powered the AC and microwave with not problem. If needed we can even charge my wife’s Tesla once I find the right plug adapter.
2:45 Best moment ever😂
Good thing he was wearing masks.. All that blue smoke coming out the tail pipe inside that garage is life shortening
well, unfortunately, they'd need gas masks for that poison, but it won't kill 'em....right away.
I drive a mid size sedan so this channel rarely covers what I'm actually in the market for. But god I love this channel so much.
You guys are hilarious, and informative all at the same time.
Not really a truck fan, but that does look damn practical. If I were in the market for a truck this seems like one to put on the short list.
As a truck guy, (meaning a full sized man, not a hobbit like these two muppets)I’m intrigued by the F-150
Since the F-150 body has been made from aluminium since 2015, I wouldn't be worrying about rust...
Many people have reported on their 2021 Ford F150s they are already getting rusty. You can look it up. It was covered on motor trend and car and driver I believe
The body panels are made from aluminum but axles, differentials, and other components underneath are still metal. Go to a ford lot and look underneath any 2021 F150 the diff and driveshaft will probably be completely rusted already.
@@zaidkidwai7831 underbody steel parts not the body its aluminum. I would think they know that as car reviewers but hey mistakes happen ig
Best practical and funny review ever. Do more like these :)
Great video! Thank for the laughs! You guys are the BEST on youtube!!!
“it’s a BMW. they’re not going anywhere anyway”
LOL
Thomas, at James: 'You know when you pick up something heavy, like a fork or a bottle of water'..
Still laughing.
For some reason this is my favourite video on the channel keep it up boys
It’s always fun watching you guys! Beauty eh!
Full size trucks are basically luxury vehicles now. Every other McMansion here in Florida has an up level trim F150, Ram, or Silverado/Sierra sitting in front of it.
Can't wait for one of the two Canadians who watch this channel to comment on the authenticity of the intro.
Yes, Scottish is a big part of our culture here and we all talk like the MacKenzie brothers, it's true. But i would lock James in the National Igloo until he learns to speak Inuktitut fluently and love eating seal heart. Ostie câlisse.
(Ps some of us don't even speak English).
I live in the Toronto area. There's way too many cultures and nationalities here to expect everyone to talk like the into. BUT as soon as you leave the city areas you start to really experience Canadian culture. I was in Newfoundland a couple years ago and got the full Canadian stereotype lifestyle and I loved it.
Look up video "Go For a Rip". They were playing off that. C'mon, one or two Canadians, bud?
I would like to argue some of whats been said by my fellow canadians, first sorry if that was offensive. Secondly my sleigh is being revarnished with whale blubber and im lucky cause its above freezing and i dont need my sleigh today. Thirdly most, if not all canadians, arnt as pleasent as tv depicts, sorry. Anyway i hope no was offended by my very harsh points, once again sorry.
As a Canadian, yes I would like to go for a rip and get a double-double. Thank you for speaking our language I could now understand you guys
This is a great and informative way to monetize an errand! I enjoyed it massively.
Entire body of the truck is aluminum. It will never rust. Frame is ecoated. Other parts, yeah you may need an undercoating.
"Just pretend it's on fire! It looks like it should be!" lol
Driving around my neck of the woods early in the video! Huge fan guys!!
the production of this episode really felt like something from TV nice job
I wonder who keeps giving these videos a thumbs down
Back when a lariat could be had for $60K 😂
No kidding. Mine has the same packages as this and it stickered for 75k
2023 they sticker for 83
F-150 just keeps getting better every redesign 🏎
The arch over the trailer wheels folds down via pulling that black "T" shaped bit of rubber to allow you ample room to get the vehicle door to open. Lesson learned by me as well.
