You are correct about the engine being shoe horned into the truck. My nephew is a mechanic and he tells me horror stories about having to take the cabs off of Fords and GM's on what seems like would be a simple repair. I don't have the patience to be a mechanic. Lol. I'll stick with digging in the dirt myself. Congrats on the new ride my friend. Hopefully, you will see many years of reliable service from it.
Congrats Brandon! That sure is a beautiful truck and color! You’re going to love it. You’re right about CM beds, They’re notorious for liking to rust immediately. It’ll look pretty cool with the bedliner and fuel tank in the back. I always liked your old Duramax and the new GMC Duramax’s too.
Sharp! So now you need to get that beast into the garage and leave it there, LOL! At least until the bad weather is gone. Beautiful color and LOADED with features. We're really happy for you and look forward to seeing you run around in it. You're gonna spend some money on those new tires, that's for sure, but you got to get it the way you want it.
Thank you! I’m really excited about it! Yeah nothing is cheap on it 🤣 still crazy to think I got a brand new truck. Looking forward to running around in it.
7:56 once you mess with the suspension it might not ride or steer the same. Also will make death wobble worse if stuff gets out of wack. If you do that leveling kit RE AIM your headlights! You will blind everybody with the leds. Personally I wouldn’t mod the truck for a few months and then see if you actually need to mess with it. Also idk if your truck has blind spot monitors in the taillights but if you remove those when swapping the beds you’re gonna lose your blind spot monitors. As for the tailgate step I thought it was a gimmick when we got our truck 10 years ago and it’s the handiest thing ever. Also for the power running boards keep them clean and try to lube them. Ours started to bind up and give us issue and after a few years we just gave up on them and disabled them. I actually prefer no running boards since it’s a f150 and I’m 6’2” so I just slide in and the power boards would take too long to come out. For the mud flaps you removed they might be handy to keep in as the keep crap off your running parts and might help the linkages stay cleaner longer.
I’m fine if the ride changes some with the leveling kit. And I don’t plan on taking the bed anytime soon I like how it looks now. That’s a good idea on the running boards to keep them lined up. I’m on the fence with keeping the mud flaps on cause I don’t want the tires throwing rocks on the sides of the truck.
I’d go custom bed like Brian brown has on Brian’s farming videos. I love my 450 and am fixing to buy a second one. If you plan to actually haul with it I’d avoid the level kit or add air bags or you’ll be squatting. Make sure the new tires can take the weight rating to support what the truck can haul.
Congratulations Brandon on the new truck. I think you’ll find that truck is gonna pull great for you. There’s definitely a lot to learn with the package you got. I got the same package on my 2024 F250. I’m still learning stuff.
Nice truck. Cm beds are all made extremely well but there power coat is awful. But if you had one paint matched and made sure they prepped it well before paint you should be golden.
Sweet truck! Look up DuraMag beds. They're aluminum and have a ton of door/box configurations. They have gooseneck compatible bodies for lower clearance etc. I have/had their headache racks on my trucks and their products are great. You should also look up the S&S Diesel CP4 disaster prevention kit and or CP4 replacement (assuming the new 6.7s have them) it'd be a shame to have that let go and cause all sorts of havoc
Congratulations! If it’s in the budget I’d get that puppy ceramic coated so it’s easier to clean and keep it nice without having to wax it a few times a year.
Hello, I congratulate you on your new achievement and wish you a safe journey. It's a great truck, but when I see the junk here in Germany, it can make you a little jealous compared to pickups that are equivalent if not even more expensive! So drive carefully so that you can benefit from this achievement for a long time. Kind regards BM 74 👌👋
SO which *POWER BALL* did you guys hit or ERIN'S Investments @ her bank? Joking aside, we are all really happy for you! You've paid your dues for many years, worked hard & took us along on SO many projects, you should reap some reward! Thanks for sharing, be safe, stay well & happy motoring!
Thats a very NICE truck! I'd take a Ford over Ram or GM any day... Glad you bought it Cant wait to see it tow the 260 around... if you had the right trailer you could haul the D39 with it too
I'm wondering what the difference between this Regular pickup bed and Chassis cab due to flat frame rails also how come the Chassis cab versions cannot get a new high output 6.7 liter Powerstroke because of the detuned version

Congrats on your new 2024 Lariat DRW HO 6.7.. I come from many Ford trucks in the past.. One being 2020 F350 Lariat DRW 6.7 and I was waiting for 2023 F450 Limited HO Star white metallic.. But after waiting for over many months, I wanted to take the advantage of high trade in ( 3 year with 50k, 62k ) and 7k off msrp on my new 2023 Ram 3500 HO 6.7 DRW Blacked out. I like my TPMS and air bag on Ram with better interior. It has much less drama. Are they offering TPMS now? How is the ride? I did tint mine with 30-15-15 ceramic with 70% windshield. I also had whole truck PPF including the headlight and fog light. Enjoy your beautiful truck and share many more great video's with us all.
Thank you! I think it has TPMS but i haven’t checked lol. It rides good I’m putting a 2.5” wicked customs leveling kit with 22” American force wheels on 37” toyos. I did 5% all the way around and I plan on doing the ceramic coating too
@@eliteearthworksllc I had a '18 Silverado with those , they tend to get very slippery in the winter . Like a person could slip and break an ankle slippery .

That's a nice truck, I'm more of a Cummins lover, are you gonna chip it, you think it has power now, that chip will make her scream, man they have so many features
Congratulations! You should be glad that you did not get the Ford liner. I had a Linex in my 2007 but have the factory liner in my 2019 and I do not like it. It is too hard and things like buckets slide too easily in the back.

16:25 that center console can hold filing cabinet folders on the rails so if you need to keep docs with you you can store them their.

BEST TRUCK EVER BUILT. DROVE MY LAST ON FOR 17 YEARS. BOUGHT A NEW ONE IN 2019
Awesome good to hear!
Martin truck bodies. Aluminum, and painted to match.
I just looked them up seem like really nice beds. Definitely the way to go
Not sure what I like more. The truck or the truck that hauled the truck. Nice buy.
Same here! I loved that 389 it was killer
You couldn't talk the delivery driver into a new 450 for his 389 ?
