So far my 2018 STX 2.7L has held up very well. I plan to keep this truck for as long as I can make it last. While I have heard of folks having transmission issues with the 10 speed I have been blessed so far. If my memory is correct, my milage is in the low 90K's.
That's awesome! I've got a buddy with a 2020 with 200k miles. I think there are batches of trucks that skipped this craziness. I hope you get a million miles without issues! Good to hear from you and thanks for watching!
I'm so glad i held on to my 2001 lariat 5.4 f50. It has 331000 and has never left me stranded. I had a accident and it was totalled out i bought it back and fixed the slight damage. It still runs great. I was thinking of buying a new one glad i didn't.
I would definitely hold off a little bit… I believe they will eventually work the bugs out if the trans issues. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment.
And people wonder why I like a manual gearbox so much. No $6000 surprises. Manual in my Nissan is now 37 years old. Never been out of the frame. I could rebuild an old Automatic myself, but this new stuff, no way.
An ordinary pickup truck doesn't need a 10 speed transmission. 3 speeds did fine for decades, then the 4 speed "overdrive". Automakers are completely out to lunch. And just to clear things up, GMC-Chevy and Ford transmissions are made by the same company.
Correct the big two sucking it up right now in the transmission world… GM was struggling with the 6-speed also, surprisingly ford didn't have a ton of speed issues.
Not gonna lie, I like the 10 speed but I really like simplicity from my 6 speed 2.7 with 131k miles.
The “swooshing” sound you speak of on your F150, are you sure it’s the transmission? I see you have the 2.7 Ecoboost and you might just be hearing the sound of the turbos moving air as the boost increases since you mention it happening while pulling a grade. If this is the case the sound you hear is completely normal.
Its not my turbos. I'm on my third ecoboost truck and none of them made this sound. I'm going to try to capture the sound. I've had a 2.7, 3.5, and my current truck is a 23 -3.5. Thanks for the response.
The CDF drum issue is way more widespread than people know. It’s very disappointing Ford didn’t fix until 2023+, and isn’t supporting the older trucks which are failing constantly. These are fantastic units once that one issue is fixed and the bushing doesn’t walk.
What is the swishing sound I keep hearing on my 23? I typically hear it when I’m going up a little incline and its in the higher gears.
I think Nissian is the safe bet this year on Trucks.
I agree… I think the Nissan Titan is an underrated truck an would be a good option.
Thanks for taking the time to comment and for watching..
Yes, and they're going to cancel Titan because apparently Americans love their big 3 drama, or a Toyota that eats its bearings. So sad.
@@jeanclaude7018 I wonder if they would have offered more tech if they could have rung in more support. It seems like the couple of titan/armadas I saw seemed a little dated tech-wise…. Its really sad they are dropping the titan though. I guess I could have bought another Nissan truck…
@@theoverdriveconsumerchanne4424 I'm the last to know if tech is outdated, so I'd be the perfect Titan buyer . My 1987 Hardbody has NONE, except for what is in the new Sony deck I just put in ,and even that has more connectivity than I will use. Oh, and the stock Hitachi EFI system!
What I really want is just to turn the key and have reliability year after year. I've gotten very simple in my old age.
Liked the honest video. Keep up the good work.
my work we got a 2022 F-350 with the 10 speed with 60,000 miles with zero issues practically a trailer on it it's whole life about 16000 pounds probably around my only complaint is the exhaust break on the 10-speed is absolutely horrible I almost could never get the exhaust brake to work properly on its own without using the manual shifter best way to describe it it's very weak and very faint compared to the 6-speed it's a night and day difference between the two besides that it tows amazing
Interesting note on the exhaust breaking. There is no telling what change ford made to the engine to comply with the ridiculous diesel rules. That may possibly be a factor. Thanks for watching and taking time to comment.
37,000 miles and mine needed overhaul.
No way! What year? Sorry to hear that!
@@theoverdriveconsumerchanne4424 2020
If i had enough money and was dumb enough to buy a new truck from any manufacturer, id immediately switch to Amsoil trans fluid as a preventative measure
Good quality oil never hurts but I think this issue is deeper than fluids. There is a mechanical design issue with the trans. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment!
Amsoil may be doing research to see what is the cause.
Meanwhile, my Nissan manual is 37 years old. No work on it whatsoever except a refill with Amsoil gear oil.
@@jeanclaude7018 I would love to back to the manual transmissions. Our vehicles would be a lot safer this days since no one knows how to drive them 😂. First vehicle was a manual…. Boy I miss it.
@@theoverdriveconsumerchanne4424 All my vehicles to this day have been 3 pedals, except one F-150 with a C-6 that I actually rebuilt myself out of necessity of being broke and in college. I'd never try that on a modern automatic! My Peterbilt was set up with 10 x 4 twin stick, and I had a gear for every occasion and beyond. I just like manuals because I keep things a long time. Almost 30 years on the same Nissan truck. Not very American behavior, but it works for me.
2020 F250. My 10R140 lasted 3400 miles and the "Godzilla" engine lasted 14000 miles.
Wow! I have heard very little issues with the heavy duty 10-speeds! Engine went out too?! No way! What ended happening to the engine? When I had mine I was hearing rumbles of engine issues but I guess I didn't have it long enough. What are you driving now? Thanks for taking the time to comment and for watching!
@@theoverdriveconsumerchanne4424 The lifters self destructed. Ford rebuilt the tranny and engine under warranty, without a problem. But it still blew my mind. I've driven Ford trucks for over 30 years and this was a first. Traded for another one in 22 and it's doing fine.
@@theoverdriveconsumerchanne4424 My response disappeared. It was the lifters in the engine and bearings in the trans.
wow! I do remember some folks mentioning lifters… I'm very surprised about the trans though. Whatg did you do? Did you keep it?
That was my F-150 experience. 5.4 triton. V8 had early expensive issues and then transmission died at 48k miles. Couldn’t believe it.
Why buy american
To be honest, no matter what you buy these days nothing is truly American. Then when you want to go outside the “American” brands - Toyotas, Nissan etc are manufactured in the US. What is really the best option today?
Because Toyota quality has really been slipping recently, especially when they dropped the 4L V6 & 5.7L V8's for those crappy turbo 6ers with/without the hybrid trash!
@@cigarsgunsandgasoline8032the gov is also trying to destroy the best things… it started with gas cans, then choking diesel engines with corrosive liquids, now no more v8s. Eventually, v8s will be a thing of the past-at least that's the way we are headed. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment.
@@cigarsgunsandgasoline8032To be fair the toyota 3.4 liter v6 is a brand new motor for them. As with any manufacturer. There will likely be quirks that will have to be worked out overtime. Toyota has always took the time over the years to perfect their engines. I would expect that they will continue to do so. One of the biggest challenges for all automakers today. Is to try and keep u with the constant epa regulations the US government keeps upping. That's why we have 10speed transmissions, turbo 4 and 6cyl engines in trucks. That's why we have these tunes that really kill the performance of our vehicles. That's why we have all of these plastic parts to save weight on vehicles these days. You can blame the government for alot of the bs we have to deal with.
