Hands down this guy is the BEST reviewer on UA-cam. I skip around on most reviewers but watch all of his and refer back to them. Good work man.
Agreed
I've owned F150 Powerboosts since March 2022, when I took delivery of my '22 F150 Lariat 502A Powerboost. 70,000 trouble free kms later, I sold this Powerboost to my son and just took delivery of my '24 F150 Powerboost a couple days ago. After 45 yrs of buying and leasing trucks, big and small, for work and personal use, the Powerboost stands out as one of the best and certainly the most versatile truck I've owned. Our '22 Powerboost XLT is strictly a work truck and does double duty between the quarry and mechanical engineering firm. Happy Customer!
Thanks for this. I plan to get one maybe next 2 years. We do a lot of camping and love the onboard power setup that’s available.
@@burntout9815 It can precool the camper in the summer!
Smart........Fords die after 72000....had two...both Transmissions died .
Trading every 70,000 miles is the only way I would buy a ford
@@christopher3725 I call BS on your story. Apparently, unlike you, I wouldn't unload an unreliable vehicle on to someone else, much less my son.
@@cwqrpportable ya right....never heard of a Ford having transmission problems......everyone I know with a Ford has had transmission issues
I watch a lot of car reviews and can say almost all of the folks are good people working hard. But I just love dad’s perspective. Great channel fellas
I appreciate that!
That's a nice truck. Love the 7kw generator. I wish all trucks would carry that as an option.
Lots of work put into this video and we can tell! Awesome job
Yes! Thank you!
One benefit of the Powerboost that is rarely mentioned is that the regen braking is in addition to the full mechanical brakes in every F150, so the Powerboost has better braking by combining them than other F150’s at the same weight.
holy shit, 24mpg still. I want it so much now, I can learn to work on this with time.
Ya the MPG’s this truck can get around town are ridiculously good.
I have no problem getting 24 mpgs with my 2022 Powerboost Lariat!
About payload, it's not just the trim but its also the extras like you point out. I have 24 Lariat, 4wd, 3.5 eco, (not powerboost), tow package, 6.5ft box, no sunroof and my payload is 1755lb almost as much as the STX you tested.
And the tires/tire rating play into it as well. Sadly, the marketting folks sometimes prescribe a low payload tire on some trims to not over-emphasize their ability versus higher trims.
I love the look of that truck!
The onboard power is amazing.
Love my 7200 watt onboard generator!
Just bought a 1990 f250. Simple to fix, low on repair/maintenance costs, didn't break the bank when purchasing. Bonus: the wife love it
One week into being a Power Boost owner, this exact Truck but in grey. Love the power boost. This truck just makes sense, I can charge my boat batteries out at a remote lake and get great gas mileage driving kids around town. I really can't find fault with it. The only gripe I guess is that for an 80 grand truck it should have a heated steering wheel but I'm going to put one in myself from a Lariat later on.
I like the new looks, Not in your face like the new GMC//Chevy's. Good job
These prices are insane. I bought my 2021 platinum powerboost with every feature, 6.5ft box, max tow package for 90k Cad.
This is a low level trim and its honestly the same price as a platinum from a few years ago. Couple for years and an stx will be 105k.
HOLD ONTO YOUR VEHICLES FOLKS
There are pretty attractive 24 month lease deals on these right now.
Love Truck King's Leaderboard feature great all-encompassing visual.
Love the looks of this truck with the 20-in wheels and black package. It's a stunner
Another great review... covered everything, as usual
I like the 21 and 22 model years.
Looks the best to me
Me too
I don't care for Ford's, but you get a watch and a like to help the Chanel. Keep up the good work.
I’ve had my ‘24 XLT Powerboost for a little over a month now and I’m really happy with it. Wish I could have had the color matched bumper instead of chrome, but that isn’t available with Atlas blue for some reason. I was able to get the column shifter, though.
Ford is a strange company. Where it comes to ordering you never know what you are going to get…I mean you do, but somehow you also just know that Ford will have some weird thing happening where you need to make some compromise for no apparent reason. 😂 Also it really peeved me that PowerFlow wasn’t included with Sync4 I was so looking forward to that graphic to see how things worked…I was surprised to realize it didn’t exist.
I just picked up the 2024 STX very nice truck. I love it by the way this is with the V-8 5.0 ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Amazing video at a perfect time please do another f-150 affordable model like stx or another XLT these videos and trucks are interesting also can you please do GMC 1500 AT4
That’s a beautiful truck, compared to the ram, the Ford looks all new.
I think the heavy hybrid system really changes that payload number too. But when it comes to hybrid systems its really good.
19:53 Squirrel !
Tiny one too
My 01 Silverado z71 side step was a beast through deep snow. Had 04 250 ford was a brick
Man I'm impressed with that ramp you drove up on! Never seen anything like it!
Thanks!
You bet!
The STX was not a power boost, the 300lbs lighter weight is mostly in the hybrid system not in the additional options.
My 24 XLT 3.5 EcoBoost has 1790 for payload and I also have the black package but the regular black package. You are showing the black plus. Regular comes with 18s the plus has leather and 20s
Love the grill.
My 22 lariat short box 501a pkg has a 1731 lb payload.
For offers the 2.3 and the 2kw plugs in the 2.7 and 3.5 ecoboost aswell. These F150s are the best all around and best killing hemis at stop lights all over North America 👌👍🏻🤣
Looks great Steve!!
This truck fits the needs of 99% of truck owners. Plus get really good mileage, or do you say “kilomeage” because you are in Canada.
We were raised on two systems. Gas mileage still works. I still convert to MPG because L/100kms is the stupidest measurement I’ve seen…change my mind. 😂
Except it can't tow much more than 5000 lbs while staying within safe payload limit.
@@humz403ummmm. With 1500lbs payload and towing 5000lbs still give you 1000lbs of payload. That’s more than most sedans. So towing 8000lbs is fine.
@@dmegahan Not quite. First, this has 1406 lbs not 1500 lbs. 2nd, Most travel trailers run 13%-15% tongue weight. That means you're close to 700 lbs, which is exactly what mine is at with a 4800 lbs trailer and 1 extra propane tank.
With my wife and 2 dogs were at 475 lbs.
That leaves 200 lbs in cargo, that we take up with firewood, beer and other misc stuff.
Go upto a 6000lbs trailer and the tongue weight could be as high as 900 lbs....that's 500 lbs which will be exceeded by many families body weight alone.
I own a 2022 PowerBoost. For MPG comparison, just ensure that the hybrid battery is fully charged for a fair 1:1 comparison.
It’s a bit hard to do that. Though I know tow haul on a Powerboost works to increase the battery state of charge more than any other mode. Guys who track it with OBD monitors have found that the State of Charge for the battery never gets higher than when in tow/haul mode. So it’s a good regime for comparison. I know it does this so there is always electric torque to back up the engine for towing purposes.
@@TheLumberJacked Yeah, probably also related is that in Town/Haul mode, it's runs more on straight engine than in Hybrid Mode, which seems to involve a blend of electric motor and engine.
Thank You for the comparison these are the two trucks. I am looking at I have a swimming pool maintenance route. I’m very interested in either the lightning or the power boost. Can you tell me when they are changing the plug on the lightning to the Tesla plug right now? I’m very intrigued by the flash model. I definitely want the larger battery at the lowest price.
The fuel mileage in my 22 would range between 20 to 24mpg. Weird thing was that it would only do 24 mpg when I had 93 or 94 octane in it.....I would only run that fuel on really long road trips or when hauling to help with heat and knock
Beautiful. Loving the red
Steve understands the difference between damped and dampened. 😂
Looks good. I’m really a Ford guy but it looks good and I like the power boost
Looks great.
I would love to see a turning radius test in the future.
PowerBoost is the only drivetrain I’d select for the F-150.
on the powerboost the cam phasers are basically a normal wear item that costs $5k to replace
It's a fantastic engine/powertrain. I've owned/own them all and our PBs have been dead nuts reliable. We have 3 of them in our family currently, personal and business use. Our trucks aren't babied and they're certainly not mall runners. Last winter, prior to buying another PB, I cross shopped brands. The most disappointing of all trucks was the new Tundra; that truck is an embarrassment to the old Toyota I was familiar with.
@@daverules No they are not. Ford updated the phasers and was putting them in the 3.5L at the factory since 2019. No Powerboost ever came from the factory with the old phaser design. The only trucks that had issues were ones built in 2017 through mid 2019, and all of them would have been fixed/updated via the TSB.
You're spouting off 5 year old news at this point.
@@daverulesthat’s not true. Can Phasers have been fixed, they have a different part now. Same with other issues like the 10r80 trans basket. Fixed, the heat exchanger in the exhaust on the Powerboost similarity solved. The bypass valve rattle on the turbo, fixed, uses a new rotary valve, no rattle possible. The 2024’s are remarkably buttoned up trucks all things considered.
What worries me about Ford, particularly the F150 hybrid, is reliability and serviceability. I also definitely do not like the rust already showing on a brand new truck.
When speaking of rust, in all fairness, you should talk about where you're concerned about rust. My guess is, it's the rear differential and axle and some have surface rust on the drive shaft. The body of the F150 is impeccable, made of aluminum and has no corrosion. I just took delivery of my '24 Lariat PB (built Aug 2024) and there's zero rust on the rear diff and axle or anywhere else for that matter. The drive shaft is nice and clean and shiny. I'm happy to provide pics of same to you or anyone who is sincerely concerned. With regards to serviceability and reliability, what exactly are your concerns? This is my 3rd PB since 2022, and none of them have been traded in or returned. The trucks have been really reliable under gruelling work conditions.
Re the Hybrid. I wouldn’t worry. It has an 8 year 160,000km (so whatever that is in mile) warranty on just the hybrid parts. That should buy you peace of mind. I spent a lot of time in the forums and never heard of anyone needing hybrid components replaced.
Re Rust: Ya all trucks have this issue eventually with how much salt is used everywhere now. My advice is buy it then do a rust prevention on it and some undercoat. It’s pretty reasonably priced too. That will solve your issue. I know of no truck currently that remains rust free for long today on components that are pelted with grit and dust. I think for you rust mitigation coatings are a must and that’s totally fair. But that axle could be coated in rust and it won’t make a difference, even long term, but it won’t look good. Still, I am getting it don’t to the Powerboost I just bought for that reason.
I do agree with the other poster by the way, mine is all shiny and new and rust free, but realistically doing a rust prevention treatment will keep it mint. The nice thing about Fords is you don’t need the rust prevention in your panels. They spray it inside through holes and it’s totally unnecessary on a ford body panel, so that will save you money too.
OP I forgot to mention. Remember this is a demo or a borrowed truck, not a new truck. It could be as old as late 2023…certainly early this year since the bed utility package was updated in June builds to add the 2 piece tailgate with sideways opening door. So this isn’t new off the showroom floor.
@@coddiwomplecolster7329 You’re commenting all the way from the UK??
Crazy that my hybrid maverick xlt has a 100lbs more payload capacity than that F-150.
They can handle a lot more, it has the heavy duty frame and all from the HDPP. But 36PSI on SL tires kills it.
It's the options like the moonroof that kill payload. My 2023 F-150 Tremor has 1760 lbs of payload.
@@JT012 1700 here powerboost super crew 4x4
It's all about the options, and a moonroof is the most payload crushing option. @newenglandrvadventures
@@JT012I would have gone without the sunroof if I could. At the end of the day I always have to tint them darker so I don’t pay for that feature all summer lol.
WHOA!!
I really LOVED this review and more specifically, I really LOVED that this was an XLT review. I was shocked at a couple of the features that this particular XLT gets that I didn't know were available unless you stepped up to a Lariat or higher! But come on! You give us your hockey prices up there but you didn't give us our comparable USA pricing on this particular truck? WTH???
That is one good looking XLT, and I don't even like red.
Did ford fix the 10spd problems?
Nice looking truck. I think I would still go with the V8 TREMOR tho....
Love my 2023 F-150 Tremor with the 5.0 Coyote.
Hey Ford, Where is my 2024 F150 Platinum with 702A package, Powerboost engine, 6.5 bed, FX4 package, onboard scrale, and hard tonneau cover. I've ordered it through Ford Lincoln Dealership in Kamloops, B.C ., Canada last November 8, 2024.
Doesn’t the piwerboost come with a battery under the bed for the hybrid? If so, that would take away from the payload number
Do you have any of those pull handle straps left? My brother wants some!
all out right now.
Hell yeah! Truck King with new video upload! Awesome, it's a Ford F-150 Powerboost! Oh, it's a hybrid? Nah, I'm good.
My man. As a Non-EV guy myself, this is the wrong take. 8 year 160,000km Hybrid component warranty. 24mpg city and FAST. 570 fpt. What’s not to like. Spent a lot of time on the forums and heard not one story of someone needing any hybrid components replaced. I’m not here to change your mind really, but as someone who dislikes EV’s Hybrids, I was wrong on this one and I’m glad I figured it out before buying, it’s been fun.
Right….. who would want a truck that can blow the doors off pretty much any ICE truck at the stoplights, get 8.5L/100km in city driving, sit and idle with the a/c or heat on for a long time before the ICE kicks back on for about 45 seconds, can power multiple homes during a power outage or power your RV’s a/c while you’re dry camping? You’d have to be crazy to want that…. Lol
Love my 2022 Powerboost with 7200 watt onboard generator! My Electricians 2013 Ecoboost has over 300k mile and still going strong with zero issues and that is no joke!
@@davewilson8308 Keep the oil changed, max 5000 miles, with a premium synthetic and you’re gold!
Great job
New sub here
Awesome thank you!
what fuel economy did you get pulling the trailer?
why would you be using the work surface while driving? should you not be paying attention to where you are steering?
Why, for charcuterie of course!
What was mpg while towing
The one thing I don't like about the new f150 is the headlights.
Is there a reason Ford doesn’t use the 5.0 V8 for powerboost instead of the 3.5?
What was your fuel consumption when towing that trailer?
Does the Ford parking brake system wear out rear brake pads fast, like the GM"s ?
No I have mine for 5 years still original pads. Good power just oil and tires rotation. Still original battery as well. I did have to spend $1300 on new tires but that’s Michelin fault. Didn’t last 40k miles before replacing them with falken wildpeak
Wow 87
I got my 22 302 5.0 sport for 64 Canadian $
How did you get leather in XLT?
is it just me or do the tailights look like they belonged on the nissan titan?
Towing capacity between the STX and this truck you mentioned was probably not options as much as the added weight from the power boost engine and battery.
How much the sticker window ?
Get rid of the 20" wheels. 18's would be fine. Would give a smoother ride and tires would not be as expensive.
Literally every Ram or Silverado is proven to be a far superior truck. From a former Ford salesman.
That truck looks hot like sh**!!! 👍
Tina Turner would have likely agreed!
How many yelled SQUIRREL!!!
how'd you get leather on an XLT?
You can’t, unless you have it converted in the aftermarket.
You can. It's XLT 303A package.
@@MattN03This is new. For a long time, there was no leather on an XLT. This makes the XLT really desirable, except for a lack of auto 4WD.
@@warrenbarnes9653correct. I think the 303A was added for the new 2024 model change. 302A used to be considered the XLT "high" package.
Does the hood still flap at highway speeds?
My tailgate step broke on the 5th use.
Tailgate use to pop open.
Brakes use to activate on their own.
Front end started rattling after 20,000kms it was used as a work truck
My truck was a 2022
The front of the 2024’s just look cheaper to manufacture…I think that’s objectively true but the looks are obviously subjective.
Ford has the nicest half ton out right now. Simple, smooth, elegant lines. What an American made truck is supposed to look like. Now if they could just go fix the Super Duty. Ram looks nice as well The GM trucks are hideous, ugly body lines and very busy. The Tundra is also ugly, big mouth truck.
Just makes the truck look cheaper
I like to donate 1000s to ford so they can change shitty chrome to black on XLT trim levels.
1400lb payload is low for a full size truck. tiny bed mavericks can have 1500+
For a new truck, there is quite bit of rust under that truck 🤷♂️
Chevy must be flattered
U need dominoes with payload on bed only see mpg against other trucks and also especially all electric trucks if looses as much as pulling a trailer or not very important to us as workers and regular drivers at 1000 pounds or more on bed mpg let’s see who listen to me first u or tfl I think u will get lot hits watching it I haven’t seen nobody do it yet . Probably put water tank to get 1000 pounds and see squat also try it out like that. I’m pretty sure you’re gonna lose a lot more mileage as an auto detailer carrying a water tank in the back or over 1000 pounds of payload when it’s empty and no water I would do about 25 to 29 on the freeway in the city would drop to a lot less, specially if you have a full tank of water for 100 gallons, it would go 16 miles maybe 18 if I pampered it on the freeway big difference try that on the trucks or electric
I don't care for the black appearance package at all... looks cheap and kinda ghetto.
Wow the one useful thing ford offers isnt affordable. Big suprise.
that grill looks so cheap 😂
The new grille make's all the new Ford's look like a base truck. 87K so you can see why FORD is giving 11k off along with free rust on the front CV's and driveshaft's WTF.
Funny how quality and terrible reliability is never covered.
The quality is great and reliability is not an issue. I own three of them.....
Gor rid of mine, regeneative brakes were complete shit!
Wut?
They work fantastic, what are you talking about?
Power boost engine isn't reliable
Hello? The Powerboost engine is very reliable. Just like the new Tundra, the first year of the Powerboost in 2021, saw some issues, mostly electrical. Since then, the Powerboost engine has been dead nuts reliable. I just sold my '22 Powerboost Lariat 502A to my son; it's been a fantastic, reliable truck. I just took delivery of my '24 F150 Powerboost and am looking forward to another great experience.
Ford f150 was the 3rd least reliable in 2023....just because you have one doesn't make it reliable and we all know Toyota has plenty of engine problems.... just like ford has alot of problems with the ecoboost also
@@atg1338
Where did you see the engine was not reliable? We have fleets with over 400,000 miles. Just change your oil sooner than 7,500 miles.
@@nm-qt2hb all over the internet... and i had nothing but problems with my 22.... sold it after 1 yr and got the 5.0
@@atg1338 With respect sir, I don't take any preaching like you just presented. I'm well aware of all the social media comments and stats. I'm 68 y/o and have buying and leasing trucks, big and small for 45 yrs. I own a quarry and open pit mine with my brother and just sold our mechanical engineering firm to my son and nephews. Our trucks aren't babied but instead are worked. I'm exposed to many trucks, including other PBs and my purchases were based on a business plan. We can't tolerate mechanical issues and I'm happy to report there have been none. My experiences and comments are based on real life, not what you read or see on a screen.
