Those antennas have dual functions. They're used as a height marker for entering low roofed structures, such as parking garages. Ford isn't the only manufacturer that uses them either. Raiti, there's 8 anchors in that truck bed. How many exactly do you need? Also, why does everyone complain about the plastic interior trim. That plastic is durable, easy to clean and cheap to replace. What more as a consumer do you want? I don't want to hear nothing about soft touch on the dash. You're not sitting on it, why does it have to be soft? Soft dash is a pain in the ass anyway. Refer to the vinyl dashes used from the 70s all the way through the 90s. They cracked, they tore, they flaked and they crumbled into dust. If I'm paying $50-60,000 for something, I don't care how soft something I don't touch is, I care that it lasts! Hard plastic is just fine by me.
You bring up some very valid points! Thank you so much for sharing your input and perspective! I really appreciate you watching!
King Daniel I couldn't agree more with you, most people who complain want it both ways it just doesn't happen. If my door panels were soft materials on my 17 escape they would be destroyed by now just from getting in and out of the vehicle. So good comment
My wife took over my 2017 XLT Sport when we sold her car...so i just picked up a fully loaded 2020 Lariat...love it!
Oh so that's how it works. Thanks for the tip, I'm going to sell my wife's car and get one of these lol.
Great review! I have a 2.7 best vehicle I have ever owned. Got 62,500 on it. Love it more than ever.It flieS and sips gas
I think I would want the 2.7 as well everyone seems to have good things to say about it.
Mine is exactly the same.
These trucks look like heaven inside. You and Tom do an amazing job showing that through these quality and in depth reviews. Awesome video guys!!
You really hit the nail on the head! Thank you so much for watching!
I'm waiting for 2021 Ford F150 XLT release. I actually owned a 2018 Ford F150 XLT with 2.7 V6 it's a very smooth and quick engine and has a very good MPG.
That silver color does look nice.
I totally agree with you! You really don't see it very much!
Just bought a 2019 f150 lariat with the 2.7, leadfoot grey with the black on black interior with the light grey accents n metal finish, i must say the grey plastic looks much better with the black, and i have the 501A sport package, overall an absolutely beautiful truck, love it!
I just bought a 2019 2.7 ecoboost xlt so far I love it and got a great deal on it.
Congrats! I hope you get plenty of smiles per miles!
I love how honest you are with your reviews and your opinions
Thank you sir! That really means a lot!
Thank You Ford for sticking with round wheel wells.
AGREED!
"What is this round wheel well that thou speak of "- GM designers
@@redd7188 good one ..G M's look stupid with square wheel wells , wtf are they thinking over at G M's headquarters in Mexico City ...ole'
that's something that I just dont understand, squared wheel wells
i realize I am kinda off topic but do anyone know of a good place to watch new movies online ?
Hey Joe, great review, beautiful truck, I agree 100% on your zonks. Hopefully, Ford is listening to you, your viewers and comments......HEY FORD !!..."V8" !!!
Thank you Mike for letting me share this F-150 with you! I am sure they have to be watching!
I totally agree, he isn't bias at all, pointed out all the improvements ford needs to make in the future
Ford does have a v8. The 5.0
@@corbinmurphy4708 The v8 cant keep up with the two ecoboosts in acceleration .
Northlander that is entirely true.
Why am I watching this when I can barely afford an XLT? Lol. On a side note, a year ago I test drove a regular cab (yeah they still make them) XLT with the 2.7 engine. That was the fastest truck I've ever drove or rode in. I mean head snapping quick. Ford has become the leader on turbo engines, hands down.
You are so very right Spenser! I appreciate you watching!
I bought almost this same truck about 6 weeks ago, but I have the black interior instead of the tan. I upgraded from a 2012 and I'm very happy with it so far. It was the only color I could find in a Lariat that didn't have a sunroof when I was looking.
Your the best at reviewing trucks and cars Raiti, Cant wait till the limited review and don't forget too mention your friend the king of trucks who drives a 18 limited.
I really appreciate you saying that! Thank you for having my back! As soon as Walker Ford gets that Limited I will be bringing it to you! I can't wait to fee that Raptor power in the Limited!
i cant wait either my friend.
Yes sir!
Joe, on a higher optioned 150, would at least a retractable antenna be part of the package? Seems like the available retractable running boards would cost a lot more than an antenna. Then again, our "logic" certainly doesn't always track with the manufacturer's.
Review ='s GOLDEN!
No the antenna is here to stay! I totally agree with you that logic so many times is hard to find when it comes to car & truck standard items vs options.
Hey Joe! Beautiful truck! I like the way Ford keeps the chrome in balance on the front end. Why not a simulated wood grain finish on that plastic trim, it would be great with that interior color. Just a thought. Great as always guys.
Thank you David for always being so supportive! I really appreciate you watching!
That Silver Spruce is the bomb, and those twenty inch wheels are a perfect match! I can overlook the antenna and the single exhaust.
Love how honest you are man. Really hard to come by now adays! “Zonk!” Cheers
Thank you so much my friend.
The engine is just a class on this own
I totally agree with you! I can't wait to get my hands on a Limted!
Solid review! Great truck. Looking forward to the Limited Review
Thank you so much for saying that Joe! It will be here soon, so stay tuned!
I’m with you on the zonks. That mast antenna takes it back 10 years and needs to go. Dual exhaust with a little more rumble would be nice. My zonk is the blocky interior and the light color with the brown. I don’t like that brown, especially with a silver exterior. Black with some gray or silver, or even carbon fiber would look better in my opinion, but I’m not a designer.
Keep up the good videos and I’m looking forward to seeing the Raptor or the Limited.👍
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your input and perspective! I really appreciate you watching!
Alright, which is worse? Having a regular old radio antenna or a hole in your roof? Those antennas have dual functions. They not only receive radio signals but they're used as a height marker for entering low roofed structures, such as a garage. You tap the antenna and that tells you that you have about 4-5 inches of clearance before hitting the roof. Ford isn't the only manufacturer that uses them either. The others do as well and for the same reasons.
I totally agree with you about duo exhaust...
Great minds think a like!
Great truck, great color.... another fantastic, honest review Joe.....I wouldn’t be surprised if some tried and true GM owners jump ship, and return to or give Ford a shot, next go round, I may .
Thank you for the compliments! I think you may be on to something! Thanks for watching!
I like this truck. I don’t care if the truck has the best speaker system or not. All i care is safety. Even the base model has automatic emergency breaking. How cool the center console doesn’t matter for me if the vehicle does not protect you from collisions. I also looked at the iihs ratings for f-150 and it is great. I hope i can afford to buy a new one soon 😎
I really appreciate you sharing your thoughts on this truck!
Kinda liking that Silver Spruce. The Ford dealer near me here in San Antonio has a 250 Lariat on the showroom floor. Looks sharp!
I totally agree with you! Thank you so much for watching!
Beautiful truck. I feel like trading in my 2015 Focus ST for it. But I hate monthly recurring payments.
I can totally understand where you are coming from!
Another great video!!!
How in 2019 does Ford still use that antenna!?!?
Beat selling truck on the planet, c'mon Ford!
I totally agree with you! Thanks for watching!

Ford uses an excessively long antenna, longer than other manufacturers. I had to swap mine out for a shorter one (still taller than the cab) because it would whack my garage door both in and out everyday. (Truck has plenty of clearance in my door).
My favorite pickup truck! Nice review Joe.
good review, i like listening, no fluff just the facts. well done.
Thank you so much for saying that! I really appreciate your support!
Hey Joe,
Another excellent review. I second what another subscriber just said, that I hope the manufacturers are watching your videos to see how they can improve their designs. If you didn't point it out, I wouldn't have seen that it could be done better, but I'm almost universally in agreement with your suggestions.
I'd like to see a review of the Dodge Ram and how you would rate it against the F-150. Their top of the line truck just beat Ford and Chevy for truck of the year.
That really means a lot to me! I am trying to get my hands on some Dodge products! I will get it together for you! I was very surprised to see that Ram won. Stay tuned!
I had 1018 F1 50 lariat FX four it was a great truck really liked it but I traded up to a raptor
That is so great to hear! I am happy that you are enjoying Raptor!
Do you know if the FX4 package will have a smooth ride even in the city and on highways or is the suspension stiffer?
It's on the stiffer side but still manageable.
It feels exactly the same
Just got it last week and I am very pleased with how smooth it is. (Although I can't compare it to the regular suspension as I haven't tested that one out). But the FX4 on a Lariat trim with 20" wheels... super satisfied with it!
Well I’ve had both and in my opinion they feel the same
Love the color on that truck! Very underrated!
Those thinner secondary grill bars are new. I noticed it was not fitted with the fold down step and grab handle.
You are 100% correct! Very good eyes!
Agree with your Joe. I like a more black out look, sprayed bedliner. Still F150 is the truk to beat IMO. Great video, 👍👌
Thank you so much for not only watching my car reviews but also the trucks as well!
@@RaitisRides no need to thank, keep up the good work Joe, 👍
Thanks brother!
Wish you could get this color on the highest 3 trim levels. Not sure why they stopped at the lariat for this color. Nice video i agree that the tan looks nice with the exterior especially since it’s a greenish silver. You should do a video demonstration of the driver assistance features of the f150 like adaptive cruise, lane keep, auto parking, etc.
I totally agree with you! That is a really a great idea about the driver assistance features. Stay tuned for that!
Raiti's Rides great! Please also do a video comparing the f150 to the new expedition in terms of how each drive and handle. Theyre pretty similar but i’d be interested to see the differences and if the expedition has a better ride with its independent rear suspension.
I will get that together! Thanks for watching!
Beautiful FORD!!!💪🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I am so glad that you liked this one! Thanks for watching!
Nice review Joe! I just brought mine home after looking at the Tundra (12 mpg...really?) and the Silverado (disappointing tech and boring interior)...Not a Ram guy so wasn't in the mix, and was looking at the Nissan, but NO folding mirrors which I needed (guy actually told me they were way behind in tech like that). All in all, I can't believe how well Ford has done the tech. Agree with bedliner zonk, which is pretty standard now on most trucks.
I personally think the turbo boost is a good engine and gets me going without a load. Not sure with a load, but I'm not hauling a lot so not a big concern for me. Cockpit is awesome and with everything this comes with (AC/Heated seats for Houston summers). Also, back to tech...when I...Me...Mr. idiot with tech, can pull out my phone, touch the screen twice and be playing music from my phone...wow, well done Ford.
Finally, the space I have in that back seat is just crazy. I can literally store all my 3-gun equipment behind the front seats without even using the bed!
Again, great review Joe and valid zonks!
Thank you so much for sharing that great experience that you had! Very good points that you mentioned and I really appreciate the compliments! Thanks for watching!
Totally agree on antenna! I have a 2018 F-150 Platinum and took mine off. Never listen to over-the-air radio so don't need the antenna.
I replaced mine with short one from Autozone. They do work.
Very nice truck---love the color!!!!!!
Thanks for letting me share it with you!
Those antennas still work better than the "modern" ones.
Bed liners aren't standard for those who want a custom bed liner and not have to pay for the removal of the factory one.
38K in my lowly STX Crew 4WD with the 2.7, love this truck and engine, will do 20.4 in town and just recently got 24.17 on a 300+ mile trip to King William Virginia. It will absolutely fly if you need it to. I call it my giant pony car, wife loves it to.
Thanks for sharing about your ownership experience!
I love Chrome! My 16 Lariat also has a lot of chrome! Another Sweet review! Joe
Thank you so much for letting me share it with you! I really appreciate your support!
Gorgeous truck. Can you do a comparison with the Silverado please?
Yes sir! Have you seen my 2019 Silverado review?
ua-cam.com/video/mKXPOUUMMww/v-deo.html
Great review again! Just subscribed.
Thank you so much for saying that! I appreciate you joining the Raiti's Rides family!
Can you do a review on the 2019 Ford F-250 Super Duty?
I will get that together for you!
the dream truck is def the 2019 Ford Raptor with black rims and tons of lights on the front to light up like Enterprise Starship to catch some velociraptors and T-Rexs in Jurassic World Fallen Kingdom
I love where you are going with that!
Raiti's Rides I love the Ford F-150s and I never had a Ford F-150 before
Are you Gay?
The wheel fenders makes the 20" tires more appealing! The 2017 Lariat, 18" tires makes it look like a cheap old man's truck!! The interior is smooth, regardless of the plastic parts. But I cant deny my feelings. While I was sitting in my father's, 2017 Lariat, bluetoothing, my phone 2 the infotainment system. The real came out! Ever since he bout the first one in 2001. Man, when I say I fell hard I'm not kidding! I took it 2 Muncie, Indiana and that was it! The only other vehicle I want next 2 the F150, is the Camaro! Only reason why I'm working, is 2 have 1 of these big babies in my name!!! If you do another F150 video? Display the infotainment system. I want to see if there is an upgrade 2 the radio.
Very good info and points! Thanks you for watching!
My dad has the exact same truck but his is black we live in Michigan would be pretty awesome to have a Walker Ford license plate
Great review as always but the ugly antenna is a performance antenna
Spoken from a radio repairman of 32 years of repairing military radios
I totally agree with you about the antenna!
I actually like this better than the Limited, King Ranch, and Platinum
Absolutely love the truck, just wish it wasn’t 80k with decent features. Ford did nail though, this truck is a work of art in appearance
Thanks for sharing your thoughts and perspective! I appreciate you watching!
I looked at a 2015 King Ranch the other day. It had the same leather seats, but they looked solidly worn. Am I mistaken by saying black leather ages better?
Thank you for sharing your input and perspective! I appreciate you watching!
Beautiful truck 👍🏻👍🏻 I have the same 2012 F-150 XLT crew cab silver 4X4 😎🏝🌴
Thanks for the kind words and for giving your input. How has she treated you?
Raiti's Rides hey bro I’m here 4 u n yes she takes me 2 point A 2 point B then the weekends with my family still driving strong 💪🏻 when I first got her n still under 73,000 miles not bad 4 a 2012 😎🏝🌴
Very good man!
Awesome video!
It's a really great truck!
Beautiful 👍🏼😍😍
I am so glad that you liked this one!
This truck is beautiful but in my opinion the Ram is the best looking one.
Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts! I really appreciate you taking the time to comment!
Great review, but is there retractable mirrors?????????
I really wish I could get the XLT steering wheel in the Lariat and get rid of that Fugly doily collection-looking wheel. Better yet, Give it a new steering wheel!
Thank you so much for sharing your input and perspective! I appreciate you watching!
Thenck you for information. A am video operator from Ukraine and video bloger to. This is my favourite color.
That's really awesome I really appreciate you watching!
how the raptor got 450ph and the other got 375hp and both have 3.5 EcoBoost where the extra 75hp coming from everyone wants to know thanks nice video keep up the good work
It's just a different tune of the engine.
Yes F-150!!!!!! Number 1!!!
Raiti, i am happy that bedliners are still an option as i dont wish to be required to pay for it. These new trucks are expensive enough as it is. Also u will find many differing views bout liner tyypes among truck owners and among different truck usages.
That is a very good point! Thank you for bringing that up!
I think it's time for the power Antenna for the luxury trucks.
What's your take on this 2019 Ford F-150 Lariat EcoBoost, Joe? Bet it gets some good gas mileage
It would be a truck high on my list if I was looking!
Joe what is the difference between the red Lariat you did and this one?
What do Ford put Chrome wheels and chrome bumpers but I really do not like the chrome wheels
I was wondering is there anyway I can get a walker Ford license plate for my dad
$120,000 In Australia / Rhd conversion $30000
Ouch! Wow that is insane!
Import TAX
@@hazarjdm786hazar add taxes $20000
It blows my mind!
Was the sticker price mentioned anywhere in this video?
MSRP $68k Thanks for watching!
Raiti's Rides DAMN. That is WAY more than I expected for the Lariat, especially with no pull out step and and bed liner
Once you start checking off those option boxes things add up very quickly!
Abel Balcazar that’s what I want. Black exterior on Black leather interior.
Never buy another ford unless it has the same PVD wheels like was on my 2017. And I say they do not make them no more. Best looking rim ever on a ford. I bought a 2019 ram
Thank you so much for sharing you input and perspective! I really appreciate you watching!
Joe, come on... What's up with the positioning of the camera...? ;-)
My creativity is getting the best of me! Sorry about that!
Raiti's Rides get a go pro or something and put it on your head 😂
Thanks 🙏🏻 bro 😎🏝🌴
Yes sir of course!
I wish I could afford one....I get it one day
You will do it!
I wouldn’t recommend anyone buy Ford trucks again. They have oil consumption issues and tell their customers it’s “normal.” I have a 2018 and it has tons of issues and Ford has no fix for any of them. Love the body of the truck, but it’s junk underneath. 40 grand and it eats oil and sounds like a dump truck. I’m done with them.
Thank you for sharing your input and perspective! I really appreciate you watching!
SÚPER EXCELENTE TROCA #1”
WUAOOOOOOOOOOOO

😇👍🏼
Thank you for letting me share it with you!
sweet but wouldnt want the ecoboost engine, $1500 each turbo to replace and there are 2 of them..v8 for this guy
Thank you for sharing your input and perspective! I really appreciate you watching!
@@RaitisRides love the video
Thanks for saying that Darren!
A turbo replacement is cheaper to replace than that v8 that craters at 100,000 mi
All I have to say is the new Silverado and Camaro is hideous. Even Daewoo looks better than what GM is designing these days. 2500 hd is so ugly that GM needs to fire the person who gave the green light on that one. GM needs to reach in the past and bring back legendary cars Grand National, Typhoon, Avalanche and Chevelle 454 with a real back seat to have a chance.
Thank you so much for sharing your input and perspective! I really appreciate you watching!
On center steering sucks. Constant adjustment is needed. Seats not as comfortable as 2014 seats. Steering wheel blocks speedometer. Brakes are superb. Door lock switch is idiotic. Horn sounds like came off a prius. Rear tailgate has no lip to grab on. 10 speed tranny annoyingly busy. Engines are stellar. Ride worse than a 2012 to 14. Aluminum is nice but scratches easier than steel in bed amd tailgate.
Thank you for your input and perspective! I really appreciate you watching!
just keep saying I love it. come on.....
$56,000.00😳 Nope. Good video tho.
Yeah the prices on these trucks are just getting out of control!
There are 3 major zonks for me the first being the engines the V8 is to small and the V6 ecoboost still not powerful enough and I don’t care what you say or do there is no getting around the fact that it sounds like a swarm of angry bees there is no replacement for displacement and that V8 while good for a family car with that 5 liter it is not enough for a truck I would rather see a 390 minimum the next zonk is the body a truck needs to be steel not aluminum and the 3rd would be the placement of the shifter if you get one with the console and bucket seats I don’t like the shifter being on the console I know there are those that do but make that an option also this engine auto start stop crap again not for me a truck is meant for work and to have fun off-road it is not supposed to replace the family sedan or S. U. V. sure keep the crew cab but don’t turn it into something that a truck is not
I really appreciated you sharing your detailed zonks! You bring up some really good points! Thank you so much for watching!
@@RaitisRides you are very welcome and thanks for the great content I was never a big fan of aall the chrome either but I know there are those who love it
That really means a lot!
If you don't like it then don't buy it. NO ONE makes trucks like that anymore. And the days of the big block are over.
I disagree 100% Love the ecoboost. It smokes V8s. Love the cargo room and space. Love the fuel economy. Love the interior. With the right exhaust and a decent tune it sounds like a baby cummins diesel. Exhaust note stock is my only complaint, but that's easily fixed. Great thing about these trucks is you can get whatever setup you want.
Fords are all fun and games till the ecoboost blows up
Wtf Ford. You make the sensors front and sides body colored but then make the rear sensors black.... match the bumper color. Even on the packages that have a body colored bumper, the rear sensors are still black. Fire the designer.
Now that's a man's truck!!
Thank you so much for sharing your input and perspective! I really appreciate you watching!
Have one with small v6….first of all none of the fenders, hood, doors, are magnetic so aluminum, don’t know…the running boards with the rubber cleats collect all the dirt, mud, and debris pulled mine off and replaced with a solid rubber mat instead. The overall build of the truck, but plastic is extensive and somewhat obtrusive. Working on the engine is terrible, dipstick located by the firewall, are you kidding me, ford never has designed or engineered their vehicles to be easy to work on by the customer. Remember from the 60s onward the old saying..”ford, found on the road dead”….and this sales pitch is way overboard.
I Liked😛
I am so glad that you liked this one! Thank you so much for watching!
Not into the modern lariats. Too much chrome and the interior isnt to my taste. I think the interior for lariats is the ugliest interior ford makes for their trucks, and also typically no column shifter. Ew! I have a 2018 xlt, and i think the xlt is the perfect truck. Its not overly luxorious, just the right amount of chrome, no unecessary features. I have the 3.5l ecoboost. Great engine, but i wish it was louder. Also i love how f150s still have an antenna.
Antenna = No No for me
I totally agree with that!
Nope, no manual trans
Those days are long gone.
Raiti's Rides eh, Ram had one in their HD until 2019 and light duty like the Tacoma still offers. Which is why I went with a Tacoma. Even though I prefer Ford
Very good point!
Nice truck nice color but soooo pricy !!! Just for rich people 🤑 come on ford !!
Thanks for sharing your thoughts Jose!
Haha very aggressive! The Raptor is the only one that looks aggressive

Buy a Tundra
Thank you so much for sharing your input and perspective! I really appreciate you watching!
Why would anyone but a tundra its out dated only one hundred thousand people bought the tundra last year there is a reason the
F150 is the best seller and the tundra not get a clue
I guess when you look at Toyota's track record. Plus their resale value is excellent.
Soon they will finally upgrade frame and powertrain. Then maybe.
