  • Wish they sold these in Australia, and at a reasonable price.

  • Raikiboy. What are you some kindof guru on getting thumbs up? Wierd.

  • @Mctsep no no don´t get me wrong. it wasn´t my aim to get the people agree with me

    i just wanna say that the f-series is probabaly the best pickup-line for hard working people like me. i never got disappointet by my truck.

    even though it´s expensive to drive a truck like this in europe because gas prizes are double as high as in the us it´s the best vehicle i´ve ever driven for my needs :)

    Best Regards from germany

  • hey guys i´m from germany, pickup trucks aren´t very common here unfortunally

    i´ve got a 2006 f-150 fx4 5.4l v8 supercrew. very reliable, powerful and family-friendly and

    right here you´re the king of the road with such a truck :D though it´s very costly

    one gallon costs nearly 7 dollars a gallon :(

    one filling costs up to 230 dollars

    but there is nothing like an f-150

    thums up if u agree :)

  • Yeah after shopping and shopping I chose FORD even in 2012 but I would definitely say that either RAM or F-150 are tops. As far as four door goes, go look at one and you will see the advantages to four doors. Sixty percent of all trucks sold are now 4-door.

  • 4 door truck?? just buy a car

  • Chevy has the worst interior ever, not to mention the little amount of space it has. The Tundras are imports. The Dodge Ram has a roomy cab, a great motor, and nice looking. Tundras and Silverados are ugly. The best trucks in this competition were the F150 and the Ram

  • @semeponedura ur duuuumb.. gm is a better put together truck than dodge.. yea i guees the hemis are good but cool, there trannys arnt the best and when u have problems with it , good luck with haveing a repair done quick and easy. i would only buy a dodge if i had a good solid warrenty with it. tundras arnt bad either and ther mostly made in us. if u buy a truck buy a ford or newer gm.. dodge 2500 5 speed cummins are sick tho

  • Hi folks. Slight change of subject. Possibly purchasing a truck and need some advice.

    Which is cheaper in the long run?

    To have two vehicles, one small cheap car for job commute and truck for utility purposes, therefore paying registration, insurance, and maintenance for two.

    Or having one all-purpose vehicle (truck). Worse on gas but only paying all those fees for only one.

    This is an agonizing decision.

    Thanks for any advice.

  • @1mikethebuilder1 The new 2011 eco boost has great everything including mpg compared to all of them, plus the most torque.

  • F 150. All day. Everyday

  • I think dat da f150 2009 looks way uglier than da 04-08 f150's

  • Why in the right mind are they testing a Hummer and a Suzuki? Why not test a Tacoma and a Colorado as well?

  • question: does the 09 and up models of the f150 have a locking diff option? if so on what trim model? thanks.

  • @2WheelinTacoma 2009/2010 model F-150's have Locking Diff's but they are only availble on the FX4 model. However as of 2011 Ford made the locker more avalible as you can now get it on other trims as well as the FX4.

  • @MercuryMorrison1  so thats standard on the FX4 correct?

  • @2WheelinTacoma Yeah. From 2009 and up FX4 models have a standard rear locker.

  • @MercuryMorrison1 nice thanks!

  • @2WheelinTacoma You're welcome. :)

  • it was the weakest though

  • @cardude1992 key word 'was' if you where talking about horse power the f150 is currently the moat powerful.

  • AMERICA!!! We're the best at making full size trucks!!

  • This is Junk!! Stick with the Ford F-150 svt Raptor!!!!

  • Just bought an F-150 2010, without a doubt best vehicle I have ever owned. That is over a Chevy Silvarado 2500 by a long shot.

  • wtf is a suzuki doing in a competition against a ford or dodge?

  • soo ugly... ~8l = 100kw ? :D :D 

  • this is the best truck ever built 50 something years and saying the ram & sliverodo are good GET REAL! Ford best built

  • I couldn't stand to even look at such an Ugly truck in my driveway. Much less own one. I'm sticking with Chevrolet. Look a million times better and Can actually last a million miles. I've driven Several fords trucks and I'm not impressed at all.

  • @Pantera4LifeXTX I guess a vinyl front bumper and standard rear drum brakes looks better in your driveway on a Silverado, hey?

  • @lariatfx Better than a Chrome front bumper and all wheel disc brakes on an F1-UglyAss50 ANY Day in ANY Driveway.

  • @Pantera4LifeXTX I not going to shit you. I'm a Ford truck guy but will admit that I am not sold on the styling of the current F-150 eventhough I own two. However, the 1500 Silverado is no better. It has some ugly sheet metal and that three-piece vynil and thin-gauge tin front bumper is simply ugly. If it was all about looks, I'd go with a black Ram 1500 Laramie. The Silverado 1500 is just cheap throughout and ugly.

  • @lariatfx Yeah, the new Silverado has the worst styling on a Chevrolet truck. Probably because it looks closer to a ford now. You like what you like ya know? I think the ford is cheap and ugly and you think the Silverado is cheap and ugly. Alright , Our opinions are known! I believe we're done here, unless of course you want to argue back and forth like two children? 

  • @Pantera4LifeXTX LOL. We're done.

  • @lariatfx I agree, the new fords...and new trucks in general, aren't that great looking...Personally I think the 78-79 or the 92-96 F150 generations were the toughest looking/best looking trucks ford made. Back when trucks were trucks and not cushy, oversized vehicles most use to get to the grocery store and back, lol.

  • @Barracuda340000 Agree, I think the trucks from early -mid 2000s looked significantly better then these current trucks.

  • To all Ford OWNERS come see a great video on my channel

  • HAHA THERE JOKES..........FORDS ARE PEICES OF CRAP GET ONE AND YOU WILL BE FOUND ON ROAD DEAD

  • @CHEVYMAN1231000 That's the thing of the past. ford is the most reliable US auto maker, and there trucks have always been among the best. Coming from a guy with Government Motors in his name. You can keep your junk, cheap, unreliable, outdated, Mexican Chevy. i like my vehicles without any help form the government thanks.

  • Ford?!

    I thought Dodge would demolish it in every comparison.. (?)

    To me it looks way better, the interior seems a bit nicer and the engine is like 20% more powerful?

    Not to mention the fact that there's no problem with getting parts for Rams in Europe while there's no way that we get anything for a Ford (or Chevrolet, GMC, Tundra or even Titan).

  • ford just kicks ass

  • Umm This Car Won Truck Of The YEar Off One Fuckin Point WIt The Dodge! Dodge was winning the test Until When one of the judges was checkin the back trunk of the ram and one bolt fell off the plastic part and they said OOOOHH THE FORD IS WAY BETTER!! iw ould go for a 390 hp Truck Then a 320 Hp Ford !! it may tow 1500lb mre then the dodge but id rather have more power to tow then struggle up a hillw it that fuckin CRUMMY HP 320!?? HAHAHHA US DODGE GUYS LAUGH AT UR FGAY50s!

  • Ram rules!!!

  • I thought all the doors were gonna fall off on those speed bumps

  • Holy crap, look at it shake on those mini bumps. O_O

  • Almost 35 000 000 sold en. wikipedia. org/wiki/Ford_bestselling_mode­ls

    This is F-Series, an icon for Ford!

  • Ford raptor is good , but volkswagen amarok is better

  • ford is a good company but i like dodge better

  • @church400c what threat? really? you think toyota is a threat? cmoooon. lol and the 5.4 is a bad ass engine. very reliable, powerfull and bad ass all around. jap crap aint no threat i will tell u that for sure

  • Comment removed

  • @NewToyotaTrucks Funny, I think if AMERICANS baught american made our ECON would be a lot better than what it is now, it's the ones that are buying Jap-chit that makes this country go down hill, buy AMERICAN morons!!!

  • @NewToyotaTrucks Lol, the numbers show. This truck is still the best selling in America. Plus, the fact that it's made in Mexico makes a lot of hispanic Americans buy it as well. Being that most hispanic Americans are construction workers.

  • @undertake782

    the ford is made in michigan missouri and virginia the ones made in mexico are sold in mexico.

  • who wants a fucking Suzuki truck? i mean seriously!

  • @StuningRedneck look dude i went to baran institute and one of my class mates had one of those things, i aint sayin its a good truck but damn man that thing was snazzy lookin

  • now thats what i like to see F150 fuck off haters

  • ppl call it an old mans truck but those old men are badass tough men

  • @andyvega31105 i havent heard anyone call the f-150 old mans truck, cadillacs are for old people, or black people. or old black people.F-150's are for bad asses and poeple who likes to have funoutdoors... and like u said, bad ass poeple. chuck norris has an f-150.

  • a hummer thats not a truck

  • ford number one

  • Ugly trucks for old men. JUNK!!

  • Ford!

  • holy SHIT them hummer h3-t's are fucking long

  • ITS A PITTY ITS NOT AVAILABLE IN DIESEL :(

  • @pantsiosk thats why they made the new 2011 ford super duty... xp

  • American iron rules!

  • Comment removed

  • I see a lot of these trucks on the road already.

  • doesn't look so tough at 0:41...

  • @czech27 you think thats bad, look at the chevy, tundra, and ram hahaha out of all of those the ford is the one that looks more decent

  • Sorry but..Ford has the dumbest commercial's of all time. they are so fake, it even makes me more repulsed to want to ever buy one of their cars. I considered FORD when looking for a new truck, but all the advertisements are totally fake. So fake that it discourages you the buyer completely. You have to be a neo maxi zune dweebie living in a cave in America to believe that anything they say is true. So I ended up buying the Tundra, and out tow my buddy in his F-150 up El Cajon pass every time.

  • nobody better not say notin bad bout my truk caus ill be rite on em bubba.

  • Ford simply won because it's the best truck. it may not have the most power (well, actually, now it does with the 6.2L Raptor), but you can push it a lot harder in every way, without having to worry about something going wrong. trust me, I know this first hand. out '07 and '08 F-150s are just amazing, especially considering what they have to go through. try hauling a fully loaded bed of oak up and down a mountain trail all day with a 4.6 V-8. only the F-150.

  • I love this truck just wish it had more hp thats why I had to go with the 2008 gmc seirra and I love it and thats all that matters to

  • Isnt the basic 2010 Ford F-150 only 21k this year?

  • bullcrap

  • my 95 straight 6 f150 can pull a 5600 lb bobcat on a 2300 lb trailer with the bed full of scrap metal no problem. Once I accidently let the guy at the concrete recycling place load 8000 lb of gravel in my 2600 lb dump trailer, and the truck was able to pull that. I would take an old american straight 6 over these new V8 any day of the week. And WTF is up with them putting pussy ass aluminum heads on these big v8's?

  • @stevenmorookian16 really? I thought they only had like 145HP. didn't think that was enouth to tow much. I agree though, I aluminum heads in a trucks don't match{esp full size}. IMO they should go back to Cast Iron and save the Aluminum shi. for passenger cars.

  • @watso64 Well they have low horse power because they don't rev up very fast or very high, but they have a shit ton of tourqe!

  • @watso64 not to mention that tthe straigh6 lets out a voracious roar when it rages at 4000 rpm!!

  • Look at this car awful interior ! It looks like it came straight from 80s european cars. Just cheap plastic all over the place big panel gaps.

  • suzuki made it in the top 4? the day chevy loses to a japanese piece of shit is the day they fail at life...that new f-150 is a beast! especially the raptor

  • where's G m at

  • lolol chevy is alright but i mean.. Cmon man

    FORD 2009 is a beast! Chevy = lil critter that just spits and plays dead.

  • The Ford F-150 is the best truck period, better than Chevy, Toyota, GMC, Dodge, Podge, whichever. Tundra is absolute garbage. The Silverado is absolute dated garbage that wishes it was an F-150 (probably wouldn't take it for a gift, frankly). Go with the best, and this is the F-150 all day, every day and twice on Sundays.

  • @marco39576 the silverado is trash but the SS version is even tougher

    than the ram and the ford all together i say this because i own a SS version from 09 witha 5.0 400hp and its a work truck how bout dat

  • @marco39576 hahahahah lmfaooooo hahaha twice on sundays hahahahahahahahahahahaaha p.s. i love ford too!!! built ford tough!!!!!!

  • @marco39576 as a matter of fact the Tundra beats the F150 in almost every imaginable way

  • Comment removed

  • @NewToyotaTrucks what fucked up imagination land are you in?? Ford has the best in class award for towing and payload and I'm pretty sure having the least hp doesnt get you that. Toyota has a channel frame with rivetted cross members and shitty gas mileage. Toyota cant hold Fords jock strap

  • @01F150TritonV8 dont argue with him, poeple say that crack makes you see crazy things... and apparently imagine some crazy shit too

  • @NewToyotaTrucks yeah toyota beats off ford, thats for sure.... i do agree on that one. lmfao.

  • @marco39576 youre an idiot

  • Ford makes the best trucks! I've owned an F150 for 4 years now and absolutely love it. Great reliable truck!

  • @JohnnyVersion1 Sick oil burners to finally kill nature, driven by sick men who don´t care. When was the day, Americans learned to make good cars? I´m afraid I lack this special information. Oh I see, there wasn´t any...

  • the ford it win because of the work and the price of it but not of preformence and power the dodge is made for that the and the dodge have low gears for pulling every big loads and the ford win at price not power dodge lost and cost but win in power

  • @ dodgemuddin93 Bleh.... Try speaking in English, with complete sentences.

  • @dodgemuddin93

    The Ford won because despite its lower power numbers, It still out pulls the Dodge. And the Dodge has that god awful 5-speed automatic that can't compare to Ford's new 6-speed auto. But even so, Dodge' lead in power over Ford wont last long. As soon as Ford drops the 5.0L V8 in the F-150's its game over for Dodge. And personally I would like to see the boss 6.2L in ALL F-150's myself. Not just the Raptors. The 5.0L would make a great 400hp base engine.

  • ford won becasue its the better truck period

  • @dodgemuddin93

    And you should also know this

    2010 Dodge Ram 1500 Base RWD 2-Dr Reg Cab Short Box.

    ($19,390.00)

    2010 Ford F-150 Base RWD 2-Dr Reg Cab Short Box.

    ($21,820.00)

    So as you can see the Ford actually cost more money than a base Dodge. And both Ford and Dodge can be optioned out to over 50,000$ depending on packaging. So arguing that the Ford won simply because its cheaper is really not an argument at all.

  • fords a better truck

  • No doubt.

    That's all Ive ever owned and all I ever intend to own.

  • who gets a pickup truck for speed you buy a car to go fast not a fucking truck ford f-150 is the best truck in the world and has bin for 35 years and what do you know they win another award

  • ford<3

  • I'm looking into buying a new truck, but am very undecided. I need it to haul stuff in and for carrying my 3 children to school and events. I like the Ford's features and styling. The Silverado and Gmc are pretty nice looking trucks and I have always owned chevrolet. And I think the Toyota is a nice looking truck, especially the big 4 doors. I like the space it has in the back. Although I have never owned a toyota before.

  • If you want my advice, go with the F-150. It's more capable in terms of towing and hauling, has the highest safety rating in both frontal and side impact and crash tests and the best safety features for your loved ones. It's roomier and more refined in terms of build and material quality throughout compared to the Chevy. I think the Tundra has some serious quality deficiencies which will soon make you regret that you actually paid good money for it. I used to be a Chevy guy until recently.

  • get the f-150 the toyota is the biggest peice of shit the chevy is nice but a peice of shit the dodge is nice but not on the same level as the f-150 yet so i would go with ford for safty reliability and towing no oither truck comes close and it gets the best gas mileage

  • i like all 3 trucks chevy dodge and ford.But the new fully loaded dodges look really bad ass with the dual exhausts.

  • compare to this truck, TACOMA have really really poor FRAME ( RUSTS) and weak body ) Dings easily. This comes from experience owner of 2010 tacoma.

  • Toyota trucks have this problem in general. Have you ever seen a Tundra go over the humps in those test runs that the F-150 just did? It's a funny ass sight. The Tundra's cabin and bed look like their gonna rip apart.

    However you run into ignorant people who think that alot of power makes the truck when in reality if you look at the specs. the F-150 is a better buy than most other trucks and it is better at doing "actual work".

    The F-150 deserves it's rep.

  • i looked at every truck wen i bought my truck im a contractor and i bought a f-150 because the other trucks are crap that cant do what i need it too chevy toyota and dodge cant pull alot of weight and cant carry alot of weight in the pickup bed ford can the f-150 is best truck made deal with it

  • f-150 is all about work okay they compete with there last year model truck to make it better honesetly because its always the best every year so its really like they are in competition with itself

  • pearldrummerbt123 I agree with you...My list though goes like this Ford, Chevy, and Dodge.

  • ford dodge chevy toyota chevy and toyota suck

  • well done it looks great runs amazing and freakin tough

  • where the heck is chevy and gmc? Silverado and Siera would kick the f-150s butt.

  • well chevy/gmc are considered bankrupt they are fast truck but tacky not as nice as the new f150 they are tough

  • how they gonna call it truck of the yr when they didnt compared it to chevy and just shity trucks fuck ford its all about chevy

  • does the silverado count as a chevy? that was included

  • i didnt see a silverado in there they only compared it to dodge hummer and suzuki

  • the gnc sierra was there, which is essentially the same truck

  • Does the ford come with a heated tailgate?

  • The "man" step is stupid

  • no its not, some people cant step on to the back of the truck because their either old or have leg and back problems, i think its a good and safe idea.

  • The majority of the people the step is made for is to appeal to the overweight people. Trucks are getting more and more urbanized so they appeal to more

  • If someone is too old or have major health concerns they shouldn't be putting heavy things in their truck bed. Also us Americans tend to sometimes be lazy.

  • not to be mean, but i know a guy who is in his 70s and he put hay and straw on his truck with little help, and i agree with you on Americans being lazy but i would rather have the step so i don't hurt myself when getting on and off the truck.

  • Yes those are the hardcore truck ppl. I just like to make fun of the step thats all. I like the rest of the truck a lot

  • What a GREAT truck.

  • Totally agree! Just think about the possibilities when (or if) Ford introduces these puppies with the 6.2 L V8 and/or the small diesel. Toyota should just stop making their full size truck , whatever it's called haha

  • ya Japs suck at making trucks!!!!

  • @NFLdude505

    Oh? But they are good at making trains google Japanese Bullet Train.

  • f1-150 is the is the 1 that you want to get, strong, and saves more gas then the bigger 1s

  • does the regular cab (not supercab, not supercrew) design have a bigger towing capacity??

    i think that's what it said on their site or something.

  • all the 3 cabs can get the same towing capacity of 11,300lbs with only 2 wheel drive. But the regular cab gets more payload capacity of 3,030lbs.

    So if you want 11,300lbs towing capacity and a payload capacity of 3,030lbs together get the regular cab.

  • so bottom line, the regular cab is the strongest one?

  • yup the regular is the strongest one!!

  • ...but i guess it's all relative right? i mean, the weight of the rear seating, which isn't in the reg cab, is basically the added payload capacity of the reg cab, right?

  • yup the extra weight from the extended cab and the extra people add weight so the max payload is reduced.

  • i see. but it's a give and take kind if thing i guess. more cargo or more passengers. so it just depends on the purpose. given, that we're comparing these trucks with the same engine and etc.

    is there like another trim or model of the f-150 with a bigger engine?

  • while the f150 has 3 different engines 4.6L 2V V8, 4.6L 3V V8, and the 5.4L 3V V8. Or you can go to the f250 with more powerful engines; the 2011 f250 will come out in the spring of 2010, it will have more powerful engines with better fuel economy.

  • lol, i think i'll have to stick with the f-150. the super duty models are a bit too much for what i want.

    i was looking into the ranger, but it kind of feels.....you know ;)

  • what the ranger is to small is that what you mean.

  • yeah lol.

  • THE Ranger is a piece of CRAP!!! Ford should have never made it

  • it's not a truck lol.

  • Lol rangers are the only truck ford is selling here. It's built in asia...

  • in Sweden you mean?

  • Yes. And the rest of Europe.

  • that kinda sucks. but i guess European cars dominate there, and maybe trucks are not trendy there?

    but if a person wants a light duty truck for everyday driving, i guess the ranger is not that bad a choice. especially the cash/delivery allowance ford gives, it's only about +/- $20,000 (i live in Canada) for the highest 4x4 trim.

  • Yeah you are right about all those things. But those who drives trucks here drives japanese "trucks". And trucks aren't trendy here like you said, just like all american cars except classics that have become popular along "farmers". But i still like american cars!

  • the cars now are better for only a couple of years then they junk

    In the 70's you bough a truck for life it dosn't mater how many miles on it or how old its is because they were made to be fixed unlike a new car. i have a 79' f250 with 579,000 miles on it you dont get that out of a new vehicle without spending a fortune in parts and repairs on it.

  • Ok guys! you are not stupid.! Understrand this. I had Chev, I had dodge, now i have ford! they all break the same after 3 or 4 years. after new. I know coz i had them all. It's like witch child do you love best... no good aNSWEAR....

  • I wish everyone would understand this. The cars are getting better now.

  • DEAR GOD MAN! WHY DOESENT ANYONE ELSE HAVE YOUR LOGIC! nicely said.

  • I'm not sure why he left out that Ford also has a 4.6 3Valve engine in addition to the 4.6 2 Valve and 5.4 Triton. The 4.6 Three Valve also has the 6 speed Transmission. Sara

  • Why are all you Ford , Dodge and Chevy guys always arguing and insulting one another and ragging each others trucks. Its crazy . We all like trucks whatever the make , why cant we all get on and enjoy them all ? Ive had Fords , Chevy a couple of Japs over the years ( not had a Dodge yet but I might one day ) . Ive liked and enjoyed them all . Im not a " Ford man " or a " Chevy man " or anything else . If anything Im a truck man , I like all trucks !

  • The reason being that you cannot deny the fact that man did not make all trucks equal. I am a ford man simply because of my experiences with asian trucks. They are cheap and poorly assembled. Its like having a tag on your truck saying "made in china." That phrase to me means cheap and poor quality.

  • Yes , Im not disagreeing with that , Ive seen a couple of those "Great Wall of China" trucks over here in the UK and I agree they are pretty poor . I suppose I could say I am also a Ford man. My current F150 ( its a fairly basic 1998 2 wheel drive single cab long bed V6 ) has never let me down once in 10 years . Ive never had anything go wrong in all that time ( its very well serviced / looked after ).

    However , I still like other trucks and Im not automatically against all other makes.

  • if only the people on here would read ur comment

  • Perfect !

  • @bigwoolleypenguin I could not agree more. The only thing that I don't like is foreign trucks. I am an American truck guy 100%. As long as you are happy with what you buy, that should be all that matters. I WILL NOT argue with someone over their choice of what kind of truck they like or buy. This choice is your's and that is that.

  • @bigwoolleypenguin MAN YOU ARE SO TRUE :)

  • @bigwoolleypenguin Good point, a truck is a truck and it's not like there's an award or something for having a chevy over a ford ! lol

  • @bigwoolleypenguin ya i agree I do argue with lots of truck guys because i am a truck guy/ ford guy but I get tired of people saying that chevys better or dodge is better so fuck off or whatever so now i don't think theres any point of it we'll always be arguing about it if noone thinks about that

  • @bigwoolleypenguin way to say it !

  • I move cars and trucks for Hertz, so I get the luxury of driving all makes and models. The Ford trucks kick all the competitions asses! The Ford's feels safer moving through traffic, there is no camparision in ride, and the Ford will outrun the others, I know...trust me!

    No wonder the Ford trucks are the best selling trucks in America, and no surprise it was Motor Trends Truck of the Year!

    Not biased, just impressed!

  • First shot of interior, I thought it looked like a luxury car. Damn.

  • I should also note - I have the 4.6 3 valve, with the 6 spd auto tranny - According to my manual its rated at about 290-298 hp, and the 5.4 doesn't have that much more of a hp gain over mine - Less u need it 4 a lot of off road driving, save ur $ & get the smaller engine, BUT make sure u get the 6 spd auto, w/the bigger differential. I'm lovin it, incredible mpg w/25 mpg @ 60mph!

  • I just got the 2009 F150 XLT model w/the 4.6 V8 and 3.55 differential... Its rated to pull at least 7500lbs with the bigger differential. I believe all of the F150's regardless of engine size can pull (on paper) between 10-11k lbs

  • Does anybody know how many towing capacity in this truck?

    I'm planning to buy truck soon.

    Thank you!

  • the base with the weaker engine and 4 wheel drive can tow i think over 5000 pounds...the platinum top of the line with 2 wheel drive can tow up to 11,000 pounds i think...look on fords website for the chart

  • properley equipped it tows 11,300lbs and payload is 3,030lbs

  • Thanks for replying back to me.

    Could you please tell me what is the best truck Ford -F150 or Dodge Ram 150?

    Thanks.
