    During this presentation, we will take a 1st person look at what the vehicle is all about beginning with the start up, performance data, fuel economy, the occasional track data, and build quality. Also, I will teach you how to use most of the interior and exterior features in a detailed fashion, that before, you could only get from going to a dealership yourself! Throughout the video, I will highlight key styling and unique differences about the vehicle, any available options, and of course it would not be an enthusiast car video without the good ole engine portion with rev and exhaust note with interior and exterior perspectives. A thorough tour/review of this car designed to give others a greater overall appreciation of the vehicle.
    FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THE CHANNEL SEE BELOW: In this channel you will find in depth educational videos of automobiles from all over the world, presented in a more detailed fashion than ever before. Basically, this gives the viewer the chance to view the most detailed 1st person look you can get without going to an actual dealer yourself! Every video is consistent in the way I present so viewers know what to expect in my presentations. I treat every vehicle with the same respect whether a 1960 Chevrolet Impala SS or the 2012 Lamborghini Aventador. I film all types of vehicles from past, present, and future while broadening the knowledge of the automotive enthusiast. You will see everything from vintage, brand new, exotic, mainstream, old, etc. I am very proud of this channel and have built it up from amateur videos years ago to what you see today. I wanted to share my love for the automotive world with the rest of the world. Be sure to explore the massive video variety, have fun and enjoy The Driver's Seat of UA-cam!

    Kyle, I've been watching you literally since the beginning of time with your videos. I'm not usually the one to comment on a video, but I felt I needed to take the time to share this, even though you may not read it. Watching you now as compared to where you came from is incredible. Not to say that your older videos were in any way lacking, but your current videos are just that exceptional. You've created a style that cannot be touched. Being a fellow car guy, I can appreciate the pride you take in your videos as well as the enjoyment you get out of making new ones. The amount of detail and intent that goes into your videos is not only unparalleled on UA-cam, but unmatched in any other source of automotive reviews (Your channel is bookmarked on my browser). I get excited every time I see you post a new video. Regardless of what the car may be, I watch it because I have the opportunity to learn from the best. You just do it right. This video just solidified my opinion. I don't really care for pickup trucks, but figured I'd watch it given the new technology debuting with this model. Within two minutes of watching, I was taken back with the amount of detail you have and will provide. Every fact, number, statistic, and specification was provided and covered in a manner that makes the viewer want to continue watching. You're not just some drone spitting facts out at a camera. You make every half hour an enjoyable experience. Please don't ever stop making videos, or better, enjoying the automotive world the way you do. You have a talent and passion that deserves to be shared with the world. I've watched every single one of your videos, and don't plan on stopping. I have the utmost respect for you, and wish you all the best.

    I personally have been in this exact truck, minus the Platinum trim level. IT HAS AMAZING TORQUE, no matter what speed you are going and ANYWHERE across the RPM range. With a lead footed person driving, we were able to do 0-60 in 5.9 seconds, and 0-90 in 8.2 seconds. Its has an amazing driving feel, and addresses all of the issues of the previous model design.

    What an astonishingly magnificent truck! I've always liked F-150's but this one really takes the cake! I've driven almost all the previous models and this one looks phenomenal, makes me want one now! Only thing I could do without is the engine sound coming through the speakers, as a car guy, it feels like this is supposed to be for the car guy but also trying to fool the car guy which only pisses the car guy off. I actually would rather hear the deadening silence until I open the window than listen to a recording of the engine inside... sometimes that's the point of closing the windows... for silence! So no thanks on the engine speakers, otherwise this truck is perfection!

    Nice review of an awesome truck. I'm the exact type of consumer Ford is looking to entice with its premium pickup truck offerings (it's working). The F150 platinum as great a vehicle that it is, will not be my next vehicle of choice, to purchase. Thanks to Ford announcing the F150 LIMITED for 2016 with a winter release, that just completely did it for me. I'll be going LIMITED all the way. I have to say Ford has a pretty extensive lineup of great F150 packages at all price points.

  • @R777-RLM
    @R777-RLM 8 років тому +8

    Excellent review, Ford's 4x4 independent front suspension is probably the beefiest of American 1/2 ton trucks, especially when compared to Rams smallish aluminum lower control arms. GM trucks have both aluminum and cast iron control arms, depending on the model, but are larger than the Rams. Ford has a suspension durability test on youtube, the other trucks need to do the same. It's to bad Ford is pushing it's buyers to Turbo engines, they tend to have decreased longevity, and increased maintenance overall.

    • @R777-RLM
      @R777-RLM 8 років тому

      +Eric Powers The 5.0L V8 seems to be a good engine, they should have kept the 6.2L V8 and offered a Turbo V6 as an option. Ford should also ditch the clam shell doors on the extended cab, for the small front hinge doors like the GM's and Ram's.

    @IKhanNot 9 років тому

    Having owned a 93 Silverado a number of years ago it's amazing how refined and luxurious pickups have become. I mean they do have the workhorse models available but the fact you can get the utility of a truck but the comfort of a sedan is great. I think for this truck I'd spring for the V8 because the EcoBoost motors have proven to be a bit troublesome which kind of defeats the purpose of the efficiency since you have to shell out more money to fix the problems versus the amount of fuel saved.
