@@jonathantyree8172 I like the Ram version better because of the dual doors. Seems to take less room. But I get that the Honda's single door is shorter overall. If that was split in the center would be ideal.
8:20 yeah a real problem. How about you keep a cardboard box handy to toss groceries or other crap in that stats right at the back. Most ppl have some sort of cover over the bed. Works very well.
It's kinda funny that they had to make a special tailgate to gain access to the bed to grab a cooler, or the chalk blocks for your trailer, BUT if FORD hadn't made the sides of the bed so tall one could reach in and grab those items out. I'm a Ford fan and traded in my 2002 for a 2023. I could reach into the bed on the 02 but not the 23.
I just tried to build a new f-150 platinum. Sadly there is no V-8 option and you cannot get a max trailer package hybrid. Even worse the options for the truck were reduced significantly. I cannot get a platinum without it being black wheels and black out exterior. It forces me into a limited styled grey blue interior if I don’t want blacked out truck. No more work surface option… So I though maybe I’ll get the king ranch. But the options there are now reduced significantly. Towing capacity news reduced and the cost went up another $2000. Then we tailgate is pathetic. It’s not as nice as the Ram it tries to copy. But worse GM offers a far better tailgate. So, fewer options… ugly grills, lights, and a pathetic tailgate and it costs a hell of a lot more! What do you expect from a company that places WOKE ideology above truth and realities of the clientele who buy their trucks m
@@Dusdaddynot on the platinum. Also you can’t build a platinum Powerboost with towing mirrors only the standard eco boost. And, they lowered the towing capacity to boot The maddening part is it cost a lot more for less.
I am very tempted to get this new pro access tailgate when I get my new truck later in 2024. But I'm torn, b/c there are some real advantages to that pull out step. I wish you could get that pull out step from the regular F150 pickup also a part of this new pro access tailgate. That would be great. It looks like there's room, so maybe it's a structure/strength thing. As for that new modular front bumper option with the winch capability on the Tremor, is that something I can decide not to get initially, but a year or two down the road swap out the initial bumper and add this modular one with the winch, a day two sort of decision?
1:52 "In base F150"... sorry to say that the Powerboost does not appear to be available on the base model XL trucks, unlike the 2021-2023 trucks. They want to increase production of they hybrids but they're taking them away from the cheaper trucks. They've also made the tow mirrors unavailable on the hybrid trucks as well. So much for making good use of the most powerful powertrain outside of the Raptors.
Dropping 3.3 liter is good for the customer? Not if they don't need anything more and don't want to pay for anything more. Power boost is hooked up to a travel trailer in video, yet they won't even let you get tow mirrors with a Powerboost drive train. Their "best in class" payload used to be 3300 lbs. He didn't say why they discontinued HDPP. Do like the Modular front end of the Tremor.
Please ask Ford why we can’t get the Black package with the Atlas Blue or Darkened Bronze exteriors. Customers who want those colors without ugly chrome seem to be out of luck. It may seem trivial, but when we’re dropping $80k for a truck we should be able to get any color we want with the Black package. Chrome is ugly.
@@pryme2013 Now you are an informed consumer. Boycott all Made in China Ford trucks. Buy American, buy Made in America, buy the Toyota Tundra. Spread the word.
All of these new innovations for the new F150 are great, but some of us who are now retired need something different and are looking at the maverick as an alternative to A full size truck I would love to see A video about the maverick if that is possible thank you love you videos
Yeah that would have been nice, even a 3.3 hybrid would have had a place in the market. Unfortunately that versatility is still seen as a premium or luxury item.
I agree - anything you purchase at this point has down sides; my issue, which I'm free to express is that the price for these things is ridiculously over priced, the quality is marginal at best, and the value of the technology being added to justify the pricing is questionable. So I apologize but this stuff is frustrating if you are actually looking for value, features and reliability. I support Tim's channel, and I appreciate the work he is doing - but I do think there is value in reminding the reviewers and hopefully through their influence the manufacturers that we see them and the crap they are trying to sell us .. just my .02 and don't plan to get over it.
Everyone with their tailgate… meh unless your trailer has a very short tongue you can just drop the tailgate then use the side step from GM or Ford now to get into the bed. But wait it’s literally a grocery getter!! Lol
I drove a Ram with their fancy gate and it was damn useful. So easy to reach in for stuff. Granted, I could use a hook/stick but it was just easy with no negatives.
Still nothing that compares to the 3.0 Duramax though. They had the 3.0 Powerstroke but it's kind of a piece of junk and they discontinued it. GM always has the better powertrain options anyway.
My dad still has his 2006 Tundra with 678k mi. My brother has a 2008 Ford Triton with 125k mi. Tundra has original engine and transmission while the Ford had its engine replaced at 65k and transmission at 78k. Now the engine is acting up again on the Ford. So...what did i do?? I bought a 2020 tacoma and its a pos. Luckily i found a buyer for it and sold it after a year and 7k mi.
Great. Ford finally came up with a Tail gate and this is what they have to offer? GM wins the tail gate war hands down. Ford is little too late to the party. I also bet they marked up there prices 10k just for there “New innovation” I also like the fact that dependability is #3 on there list and not #1. That figures.. considering they are always dropping an engine and adding another every year.. what’s next 1.4 mega boost?
Good to see Tim and Andre having a good laugh.
"This is our multi-function tailgate. There are many like it... but this one is ours."
Bruuuuhhh😂😂🤣😂🤣😂😂
The price is insane for these '24s. I was just playing with the configurator. Also, that new tailgate is dumb.
Ram did it better. At least with that one, the whole width opens up.
They don't wanna admit the Ridgeline has the simplest and best variation of all these tailgates. Lol
@@jonathantyree8172 I like the Ram version better because of the dual doors. Seems to take less room. But I get that the Honda's single door is shorter overall. If that was split in the center would be ideal.
It is only dumb because you can't afford it!!
Whats going to be good for the customer? Lower your god damn price by 10 Grand! Ford trucks are sitting on their dealer lots 😂
Drop the Prices about 20k and you would actually be doing something
Look at how high the bedsides are compared to the engineer's body!
It was hilarious looking when he was retrieving his lost fruit and the bedtop was at his head.
Best towing capacity at 4mpgs where my 3.0 diesel can get 12mpgs towing and up to 40 cruising highway.

Fix those cam phasers yet? Dependability….
Hey, there’s a nut laying on the ground under the rear tire of your Tundra…..better check it out.
Actually (take with a grain of salt) the supposedly have fixed the cam phasers finally but only time will tell.

Do you happen to have video of the interior of the red Lariat with black appearance package they had there?
I don’t. Sorry.
I have a feeling this tailgate won’t be on many trucks. 🤔.
GM has still the best functional tailgate IMO.
Is this truck still being outfitted with the garbage 10R80 transmission?
Yes 10 speed.
Did the engineer also explain why they are #1 in recalls?

How do you haul an 11 ft. long snowmobile?? Does the left side open? And wow that's a powerful hood!
With a snowmobile, you’ll want to get a regular tailgate not this optional one.
Uh...fold it down like you would with any other gate?
Tim that tremor grill looks horrible on video. Is it better in person?
I do not like that i can not get a XLT trim with a regular cab. I want to get a high end trim level with a regular cab.
Sadly, those days are over....
the taillights and headlights are too aftermarket looking for me. need an OEM feeling option to make the lariat and up special
3:49 Who's gonna tell the Ford Chief Engineer about payload limiting that tow capacity?
;-)
(just joking, pls don't come at me ...)
2500 lbs he said! Now real world we want a powerboost lariat with that. Bring the 7.2 kw to the superduty at least
@@travisfeld97yeah real world as in what configuration people actually buy puts payload at 1600-1700 max.
@@pryme2013 plug in hybrid would be cool!
It’s not all new f150, it’s a facelift
That's pretty much what Ford and Tim said before the release. No one is calling this "all new"
I just want an affordable v8 truck with no BS. I guess I won't be buying new trucks anymore.
glad we still have a 5.0 but god knows I can't afford these for 4 years
All of these new innovations for the new F150 are great, but some of us who are now retired need something different and are looking at the maverick as an alternative to A full size truck I would love to see A video about the maverick if that is possible thank you love you videos
Looks like pricing is available on the build page if you want to check it ou.
I was holding out for a 2.7L hybrid…
Yeah that would have been nice, even a 3.3 hybrid would have had a place in the market. Unfortunately that versatility is still seen as a premium or luxury item.
The 2.7 really seems like the natural choice- bring city econ up to the stellar highway econ and deliver the same power as the 2 bigger motors.
Thanks Tim for your show ! I think i will definitely keep my older 2016 F150 with the 5.0 V8 lol definitely pass on the 2024 .
How is this innovative? The Ridgeline has had this tailgate since 2006
Notice he never goes into reliability which is summed up with their motto “built ford soft”
