    Thank you for taking the time to make this video, beautiful color, great choice and motor too 👍🏻
    I just purchased my 2023 Lariat FX4 5.0 and absolutely LOVE IT! You’re going to have a great time updating/upgrading it. I’ve done the bed liner, Retrax aluminum cover, KO2’s and because I need to be able to get into old parking garages, this time I’m only doing the Falcon 2” leveling kit which allows you to use your front coils like the Bilstein along with adjustable rear shocks so I’m looking forward to them finally arriving out of Utah. Btw, you did great not buying one with sun/moon roof as they’re a pain in the ass to maintain and leak later in life. Good luck and God Bless

    On my ‘14 STX, if you pressed the “+” on the column shifter, it shows the gears on the gauge cluster right above “PRNDM”. You only have to press it once and it’ll always be on. I don’t know about you but I always liked seeing what gear I was in.

    Nicest base model I have seen. Has more options than my 2015 XLT. Gets a man thinking. I have narrowed it down to either the STX with FX4 package or XLT with FX4. The difference is about 100 dollars a month on payment. They did really nice with the STX.

    @jm-hb9tl 2 роки тому +2

    At least it's not a regular plan jane xl. The stx is more of a Sport Appearance package which I rather have with the color matched painted bumpers with some decent features. You can always do upgrades to what you want with features. Not everyone wants the leather, the blinding flashy chrome, and all the other crazy gadgets that you won't use that come in these higher packages. Yes the higher packages are very very nice and get you hooked into it until they tell you that payment.

    Hey man, couple things. Check out ForScan. It’s one of the best things about ford, you can change a bunch of settings like your DRL lights and other settings. Can add a door code keypad with it (which is wicked btw! I leave my key in the truck all the time and lock it up!) trailer brake controller etc. Also, these new fords can get auto climate control, you can just replace the climate control button module with a higher trim one and you get auto climate (just not dual climate) and lots of other things. I def look forward to more F150 content!

    An XL with wireless Apple CarPlay? Your truck is an intriguing spec. In parts it’s pretty barebones, but in others it seems very luxury. Guess I’m coming from a 2004 mid-trim truck that gets everything done that I want it to. Hopefully the dealership gave you plenty of money for the Sierra and made the 150 a good deal.

    E85 will perform worse and get worse fuel economy due to lower energy density. I would imagine that the truck would be wired for adding in power seats if you want to add that in. The Auto Start/Stop makes sense to improve fuel economy. In theory, the starter should be more robust to account for the higher number of start/stops, but it's still annoying to have turn off that feature every time you start it up.

    • @JRandallEllis
      @JRandallEllis 2 роки тому +1

      You're half right. E85 does produce worse fuel mileage(about 5mpg in my 5.3) but actually increases performance due to higher octane ratings(25hp increase) You'll need to do the math to figure out if the cost savings per fill up is enough to offset the lower fuel economy

    I hear you about lowering the truck. I have a 22 f150 leveled on weld wheels and 34’s but in the back of my head I always think of tossing a 3/5 drop at it

    I really like my '21 STX 2.7 but I'm looking to step up a bit.
    Maybe to a Lariat 3.5 if the prices come down enough.
