I just talked to a tow truck driver a couple days ago,drives a a Ford F450 superduty towtruck.Nothiong but problems with constantly,15 set sets of fuel injectors and one turbo replaced.You won't see places hauling trailers using Fords,don't want them and find them unreliable.Tons of Dodge duallies with the cummins used
Wow troll haha why would u even click on this video if u weren't going to bash on powerstrokes and by all means prove to my why chevy is better id love to hear how that government run price of shit is gonna out gun an f450
to all the ford guys get a diesel that produces 310hp and 520 ft lbs of torque while getting 35 mpgs on a 4x4 1/4ton then talk to me also it has the allison
Why does everyone say Cummins is better then a Powerstroke? Most of truck pull videos of a Cummins vs. Powerstroke would be the Powerstroke winning in my opinion the Cummins is only for the rich black smoke while Powerstrokes are made for pulling and embarrassing Dodge, Chevrolet, GMC, and Toyota trucks
i like my 6.6 '11 gmc denali hd just sayin mine's better it could do the same thing with a 20,000 lb trailer just sayin :/ but if i didnt have that id love to drive one of these
@Shaggy2dope90 Would you shut the fuck up? The 9 service days are nothing compared to the 131 that they drove with a 12,000 pound trailer. God damn there will always be fucking losers such as yourself that will troll videos and not realize the point of it. 150,000 miles. You are so fucking stupid. A dodge or chevy couldn't do that in 4 years. GTFO prick.
@FordToughDiesel My my you are a touchy one. Any of the big three could do this. This was all highway miles, come on lol. Nobody makes a bad truck now days. Ford finally has an engine that wont break on you. It's just preference. But it is common diesel knowledge if you want to pull Cummins is the way to go.
@iPROFITDON You're obviously a dodge fan. Too bad the trannys are shit, they lose their value faster than a bat out of hell, and the only good thing about a ram is the part that they don't make. The engine. Just leave.
@FordToughDiesel I'm not here to argue with your deep rooted affinity for Ford trucks. I am a dodge fan and will stay that way, you're a Ford guy and I'm happy for you. Like I said, nobody makes a bad truck, what you like comes down to preference and which is best for you, not which is best. I know Ford and diesels is a touchy subject for a ford guy. I've never had a problem with a dodge trans, but have first hand seen Ford frames break and their engines blow.
@FordToughDiesel Simply because people like you amuse me. So quick to jump to Fords defense for such a minor statement. You're a Ford fanboy, not a Ford fan. I know it hurts to hear that as well. What part of "nobody makes a bad truck, what you like comes down to preference and which is best for you, not which is best." sparked this anger?
150,000 Miles in 131 days is Alot, but at the same time, it IS all highway miles, and that means that the truck wasnt towing the trailer up steep, windy gravel roads that are full of pot holes, and Its not being used as a daily driver. You cant test a trucks reliability by just using it on the highway, because your foot is BARELY on the pedal 99.9% of the time. Try using it as a daily driver for a full year or 2, and then youll get a sense of how terrible the reliability on this truck really is.
@a5woodsball it dosent have to be the same driver. one guy drives 4 hours out and 4 hours back, switch drivers and repeat. 16 hours of driving a day.. not that hard to accomplish
Well it would have been nice to show the odometer and start up the truck to verify whether it had 150,000 miles on it. As long as the new Fords with the new diesel motor is better than the 6.0 it's worth a go.
@couz650 i have 232,000 miles on my f-150 and it has been put through hell. i have towed a 7000 pound trailer for more then 75,000 miles, tranny is fine. i live down at the end of a horrible dirt road, and it keeps working great! i have no plans on selling my truck for anything else.
@jkguitarfreak95 My friend has a 2010 and blew the tranny after 40,000 miles pulling nothing more than a 7 x 14 trailer with 2 four-wheeler in it. Truck never been abuse or driven off-road....
@couz650 your the first person that i kno of that has said someones got a Ford truck and blew a tranny with 40k miles and towing practically nothing.... OBVIOUSLY this truck was NOT taken care of or else the tranny could not have just "blown" there has got to be factors at play here.... has the previous owner drove it hard? or if it was a dealership driven did they drive it hard? and how many miles?
@dukethewahala Believe it or not, he's the type of guy who take really good care of his truck,boat, 4wheeler and everything that he has with a motor. He only use the best synthetic oils in his toys and change it before time. He might got really unlucky. He pull a 27 foot boat twice a year ang pull his camper for two trip during the summer. Nothing the truck can't take. But that being said, worst stuff happened to my father in law Chevy 2500 4x4.
and look on wikipedia they never lie ford has remained the strongest of the BIG 3 ever since they were all made duramax and cummins guys jus try to make up all these storys trying to prove their truck is the strongest.....haha ford is the best selling thats why they never had to have bailout money and keep their company alive and still going so that proves it to you losers who think that your trucks are the best YAH RIGHT!!!!!!!
LOVE MY TRUCK ITS BEST I EVER HAD COMPARED TO MY DODGES AN CHEVYS IVE HAD. I LIVE IN COLORADO SO U ALL KNOW TERRANE. I PULLING HORSE TRAILER LOADED OVER ROCKIES THATS PUSHING 20,000 LBS WITH NO PROB I OWN A RANCH SO IT GETS WORKED HARD WITH HAY SEASON HAULING TRACTORS AND MUCH MORE, GETTING 12.0 MLS A GALLON HAULING HEAVY OR 13,9 -14 PLUSS JUST RUUNING AROUND
150,000 miles aint shit for HD trucks these days... lets see 500,000.. then I may be convinced its all they claim it to be. Seriously.. 150k quick highway miles is comparable to 30k city/highway mix over the course of a year --> Nothin special
Well my 2008 f450 didn't make it to 12.000 miles three radiators replaced both batteries over heated had to put in six batteries total starter went out at 15000 miles back bearings went out $1200.00 in tow bills all hose went out at the same time top and bottom to engine two months in the shop you will have to put air bags in can't tow anything heavy on bumper pull squats to much spare tire holder broke wouldnt drive this truck out of any state anywhere ! let a real working man drive it frist!!
@krypekeeper i did check out the lemon law the only problom that came up with is that it was being used as a fleet work truck thats what they said trucks gone know i even paid $2500.00 extended warranty i had two warrantys at the same time when the hoses went out thats the one thing that was not covered under that i could not belive it they even accused me of going to mexico filling up with diesel the whole thing was a joke but thanks for responding and understanding like you said shit happens !
thats all highway miles!!! for example on a good set of tires you can get maby 40,000mi under normal driving (suburbs/ country), their getting 80,000 on a set and 150,000+ on the trailer!!!!!! this goes to show what little wear is really on the truck. im a duramax guy but really eather of the big three should be able to do that no problem. i hope to see a million someday on that truck, that would be neat!
I wonder what there average mileage was? I gaurantee it was never over 10 mpg. Those powerjokes are TERRIBLE on fuel! I drove one and i wasn't overly impressed with the power. The only thing Ford has on anyone else is interiors thats it.
@BIGblocks4life well i guess ur going to have to stop gauranteing cuz ur gaurantes are bad. fords trucks have better gas mileage then chevys and dodges. chevys and dodge cant do that only ford can.
@camarosledman kinda funny u dont see chevys doin that matter o fact i was behind a 3500 seirra that blew somethin goin up the mts in colorado pullin half that trailer
@camarosledman when this video was made neither Chevy or Dodge could handle 18000 lbs so the only companies that are pathetic is dodge and chevy since they couldnt handle that weight with out voiding any warranties
man people can say w/e the fuck they want to try and make this seem not badass but they are just mad b/c they know there durrashits and cumfucks couldnt do it
6 MPG PIECE OF SHIT!!!! I had 2 2008 F450's $56000 each. The 1st I had for 3 weeks 4000 miles and cpu failed 2000 miles from home. FORD couldn't fix it so i drove out another F450 another $56000 the 2nd got to 17k miles and the cab had to be removed to replace the egr cooling system told FORD to FUCK OFF forever!
same here...every single immediate family member in my house drives a Ford...nothing else will do. dad has a ranger, all 3 brothers have an explorer, one sis has fusion, other has sport-trac, other has another explorer and i have my taurus...even got my wife in a sable ha ha. every GM product weve tried has let us down...not so for our Fords!
Does anyone know if Ford is Testing the 2011 6.7 the same way? If so, I can't find it on the net. I can only find video's of the 2011 pulling just 10,000 off the bumper which is nothing!!
Same for me, the probably wont start posting videos until spring of 2010. keep in contact with me and ill let you know when they start testing the 2011 6.7
doing more miles in a short amout of time actually does less wear because there are actually less cold starts with no oil circulation for a couple of seconds that is the main engine killer
man its not like they just pulled that shit up and down i10 they went through fuckin alaska and all kinds of shit he talked about the towe mode so many times b/c of the way it allowed engine breaking they went through some decent shit with this truch so stop hatin
@bobwatters looks like someone needs a life, i shure hope a F450 has engine breaking and you dont get that when you pull long distance everything gets used less, buttons starter sulinoid, basicly EVERYTHING if they did this over a 4 year span i guarante they dont get the same results, and even with thoes valves som oil is going to leak back to the pan
no u see thats not what is an engine killer they took care of that along time ago when they put in check valve type things that stop the oil from running down into the oil pan so there is allways oil in the engine
No shit i saw this same guy in Douglas Wyoming Fueling up at a pump n go gas station i actually did get to talk to him and he had a ford F350 Foose edition in the trailer with two other motors
no, i'm not, but you are. magically, you wish to believe that weight on the tires and the road conditions have no effect on trailer tires (somehow they will last forever!) but wore out the front tires of the truck. dumbass.
not sure what to think...guy below me says his is slow at 48 mph max at 6% grade with medium load. It is a 450 but is that acceptable i mean the truck is soooo heavy? Its not gonna fly. Nothing to compare it to really
I'm not trying to start a flame but, what does this really prove? I mean I bet most brand new cars could drive 150,000 miles in 6 months and be fine. The real test is longevity I'd say. Lets see a truck you've used for 150,000 miles from 10 years ago and put it on this same trip - then I'll be impressed.
if it was a gas truck it would be a bit more impressive. since diesel trucks are meant to stand up to towing and long distance travel. ive seen diesels with over a million miles.
well, my point was time really although I bet they won't even provide a 150,000 mile warrantee for their diesel trucks. But at anyrate I think it is all a gimmick - although that is just pointing out the obvious.
i want to see a vid of them testing ford chevy and dodge ... i mean i dont think that the pos chevy could make it thru the test but id like to see it try lol the cummins might but i the body and electrics would fall apart before that motor would
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
e have a 2008 F-250 crew cab, 8' bed, 6.4L diesel...10500 miles on it. Can't tow a 9800 lb 5th wheeler (61% of capacity) up a 6% grade faster than 48 MPH floored. It used just fly but now Ford says that is within specs and there is nothing wrong with the truck. A/C and radiator have been replaced. Bad vehicle....don't buy if you are looking at one. Check out service records....be careful!
really!?! something cant be right! I have a 2005 dodge 1500 with the 5.7 Gas Engine, I have Firestone airbags on the back to handle the loads and have done 8% grades with 9500 lbs behind it and have left the cruise control at 70, and will maintain, of course it does kick down to 3rd gear, but it still does it no problems!
So this was May of 07 and it's now almost August of 09. The guy in the video said they were going to go to 250k with the same truck. Is there a video of that anywhere?
ANY car will last that long if you take care of it. I'm not at all impressed with the truck, I'm much more impressed with the people that drove that much in so little time. What dedication.
That is a lot of miles per day in such a small vehicle. I had a Ford dually and we have driven it 1200 miles in a day a few times, and that seemed to be a lot. I've been that many miles a day in a Kenworth or a Freightliner a bunch of time, and it was nothing.
I'm impressed with that trailer holding up so well for that many miles. Trailers are just not as durable as trucks usually are. Its a good video and good advertisement for both truck and trailer.
well you should be impressed..it did about a 1000 miles a day...and towing a trailer behind it the whole time ...highly superior to anything toyota can glue together
@hondadirtbikes haha your full of shit, the only thing a tundra can beat an f150 at is a fuckin 0-60 test, and that shit doesnt even matter on a full size truck, ford has the number 1 selling truck for a reason
@wickedblackcamaro Just because everyone is stuck up, wants "american made", and ford didnt need bail out money. A cummins will out last anything, period. However there is a duramax out there that blew everyones doors off, 751,000 miles, google it!
@wickedblackcamaro 01-04 lb7 duramax's do go through STOCK injectors, aftermarket ones solve the issue, a efi live tuned duramax will smoke a tuned cummins. sorry
@wickedblackcamaro stock anything is "gutless", however, the stockness of trucks might change now, 2011 LML duramax, check its stock hp and trq, you cant beat it.
@hondadirtbikes dude duramax suxxxxxxxxx the new 2011 ford super duty's with their all new engines haha talk about good american made trucks haha a joke ford wins everytime and is best selling trucks.....wait what is it oh yah 33 YEARS HAHAHA
@wickedblackcamaro cummins sucks ass dodge needs someone to make their engines cause dodge is toooo hopeless to build their own engines..........and ford didnt need any help in a BAILOUT!!!!!!! HAHA LEARN YOUR FACTS!!!!
@cds417 your an ignorant fag, every diesel that chevy, FORD, or dodge has ever made THEMSELVES, sucked ass and were shit, just look at the 6.0 ford, its a terrible engine, they should of stuck with the 7.3 International made motor, and learn YOUR facts before you say stupid shit like this to someone whose' studied heavy trucks for years.
@wickedblackcamaro bitch i know my fucken facts so go to hell and suck dick yah the 7.3 liter Ford engine they built for the 2000-2007 models were awsome and the best engines ford ever put in a truck a they gave it all away yah i kno bitch so think before you say shit and chevy and dodge suck ass and everything so just shut the fuck upp
@cds417dude you are so ignorant its not even funny, its people like you that i take pleasure in beating. You can't even wright coherent sentences, so go back to school little boy, you sould like a pissed little 12 year old, does mommy and daddy know your on the internet?
@hondadirtbikes dude it only says 751000 miles no pictures or anything i just looked it FAKE dude u believe anything and if u ever find it with pictures post a link and lets all see if this is true............
@hondadirtbikes LOL kicked how? It might be able to beat it 0-60 or something stupid like that but never in what REALLY matters in a truck. TOYOTA will NEVER EVER replace Ford on farms and work sites that use a truck the way they are supposed to be used. They will also NEVER sell more Tundras than F-150's, I guarentee that.
Its funny how all these guys talk shit about that truck. But yet you dont and wont see dodge or chevy trying to do the same thing cause they dont have the balls. And yes, the cummins is a good motor, but the truck raped around it is shit.
yeah you wish dodge sucks.. try to work on the fords motor!! you have to take the damn cab off to do any work!! the motor and truck are good but it has a bad design up by the motor half of the truck
85000 miles for g rated 10 ply tires on all high way miles is very possible my father does big time driving his previous truck 01 f150 he went 325,000 miles other then normal maintence all he had to touch was the starter thats it!!!!! he went 82000 miles on his first set by normal maintence i mean brakes, tires, plugs, fuel filters, oil changes, and he flushed his trans every 50k it lasted the life of the truck
ill post some video of the truck next time i head home from college i did forget though the truck did have new exaust manifold gaskets put into so other then that just a starter the rest is orginal every thing is functional in however unfortantly the seats didnt make as long is this F450 he had custom fitted leather camo seat covers put in the front to i belive Hatchie Brown was the company that made them
Nice video. I knew the F450 could make it 150k miles no problem. You see F350 for sale with 200k miles and running. Although I must say, highway miles are a lot easier on your vehicle then city stop-and-go miles. So this search isn't that valid for those who do most of their driving and hauling in the city.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Dodge is going to kill this truck when they release the new 2010 Ram HD models. It will haul more, tow more and is a way better engine. Not to mention it will last wayyyy longer than ford. I'm shocked the ford didn't break down hauling all that
@nicegmctruck Could have got a 6.7 PowerStroke

I wonder what there average mileage was? I gaurantee it was never over 10 mpg. Those powerjokes are TERRIBLE on fuel! I drove one and i wasn't overly impressed with the power. The only thing Ford has on anyone else is interiors thats it.
BIGblocks4life 1 year ago
@BIGblocks4life well i guess ur going to have to stop gauranteing cuz ur gaurantes are bad. fords trucks have better gas mileage then chevys and dodges. chevys and dodge cant do that only ford can.

6 MPG PIECE OF SHIT!!!! I had 2 2008 F450's $56000 each. The 1st I had for 3 weeks 4000 miles and cpu failed 2000 miles from home. FORD couldn't fix it so i drove out another F450 another $56000 the 2nd got to 17k miles and the cab had to be removed to replace the egr cooling system told FORD to FUCK OFF forever!

doing more miles in a short amout of time actually does less wear because there are actually less cold starts with no oil circulation for a couple of seconds that is the main engine killer

man its not like they just pulled that shit up and down i10 they went through fuckin alaska and all kinds of shit he talked about the towe mode so many times b/c of the way it allowed engine breaking they went through some decent shit with this truch so stop hatin
bobwatters 2 years ago
@bobwatters looks like someone needs a life, i shure hope a F450 has engine breaking and you dont get that when you pull long distance everything gets used less, buttons starter sulinoid, basicly EVERYTHING if they did this over a 4 year span i guarante they dont get the same results, and even with thoes valves som oil is going to leak back to the pan
sayer308 2 years ago
yes but very little will leak back not enough to do any damage
and i bet they would get diffrent results but they would probably be close so stop hating
bobwatters 2 years ago
no u see thats not what is an engine killer they took care of that along time ago when they put in check valve type things that stop the oil from running down into the oil pan so there is allways oil in the engine

I'm not trying to start a flame but, what does this really prove? I mean I bet most brand new cars could drive 150,000 miles in 6 months and be fine. The real test is longevity I'd say. Lets see a truck you've used for 150,000 miles from 10 years ago and put it on this same trip - then I'll be impressed.

if it was a gas truck it would be a bit more impressive. since diesel trucks are meant to stand up to towing and long distance travel. ive seen diesels with over a million miles.

e have a 2008 F-250 crew cab, 8' bed, 6.4L diesel...10500 miles on it. Can't tow a 9800 lb 5th wheeler (61% of capacity) up a 6% grade faster than 48 MPH floored. It used just fly but now Ford says that is within specs and there is nothing wrong with the truck. A/C and radiator have been replaced. Bad vehicle....don't buy if you are looking at one. Check out service records....be careful!

That is a lot of miles per day in such a small vehicle. I had a Ford dually and we have driven it 1200 miles in a day a few times, and that seemed to be a lot. I've been that many miles a day in a Kenworth or a Freightliner a bunch of time, and it was nothing.
I'm impressed with that trailer holding up so well for that many miles. Trailers are just not as durable as trucks usually are. Its a good video and good advertisement for both truck and trailer.
