I BOUGHT The Most EXPENSIVE Ford F-250... $100,000 Truck?

- I bought the cheapest 2018 Ford F-250 from CarMax 3 years ago and it's been an amazing truck. So it made sense when I went to buy a new truck it was another F-250. This time a brand new 2022 Ford F-250 Limited that was over $100,000. The goal wasn't to buy a Limited, but there were no Platinums for sale since almost every truck is pre-sold or sells within hours of the dealer listing them these days.
My 2018 will be for sale at Farhas Used Cars in Wichita on Monday: www.farhausedc...

Imagine: I just park this in the garage for the next 20 years and sell it for $250,000 🤔
I think if you buy $100,000 worth of gold in 20 years you’d make a lot more then $250,000
Nice new truck, JRL. $100k is ridiculous for a truck, but that is the price these days. In your case, it makes sense as a business deduction. Well done.
That would be a hell of a regen.
@@srutherfordr1 yup, I’ve seen all the proof that even perfect and collector cars lose against the stock market and gold every time. 💯
20 yrs and it will probably be illegal to drive...
JR’s kiss of death is saying I’m going to keep this car. That usually means 6 months. Lol
''I love this car, I'll keep it'' 2 days later: ''It is already sold''
@@alexandrecouture2462 No kidding. How many "cars I've always wanted" go through his & Hoover's hands every year. Get's old. The feigned excitement over how it simply starts is the first sign. I came back to check on the Tesla misfire and saw this. I am checked out again. Better use of time.
In other words “I bought the most expensive truck I could for a tax write off”.
Long as the tax code is what it is, make use!
not realizing that he's going to have depreciation recapture on the last one therefore losing a big chunk of the write off. I see several youtubers(as well as other business owners in the real world) who end of the year buy a new vehicle just like their last and SMH. but hey it's a "write off" like it exists in some vacuum where the money just comes back to you
Yeah, that is what he said.
@@jeffmorse5599 I don’t think there will be recapture since the old one is traded for the new one and technically at a loss. Plus there’s still 3 years of real deprecation on the old one. I don’t know, I’m not the tax guy but I expect it’ll save me an insane amount, I just send it all to my CPA.
My understanding is recapture trigger would be a personal sale instead of selling it out of the business.
Nothing's wrong with this😁Just a $100000 for a Ford pick up is little wrong😄
$100,000 is ridiculous for a pick up truck.
I agree 💯
And i thought my 2019 for 55k was expensive 😂
Is it though is $100,000 a lot of money if you were magically giving $100,000 how long would it really last I'm guessing not very long
I love the constant justifications and excuses for wasting 100k on a ford truck ,I thought it was Tyler hoover talking 😂😂😂... This is a extremely overpriced market, next year's severe economic downturn is gonna wipe these perceived values away and many people will lose their shirts in this prolonged car market mega bubble.
Would I do it no. But it is a nice truck
I bought a 1999.5 F250 7.3 SD with a manual for $7,500 in 2008. It had about 165k miles at the time and has about 207k on it now. I got it cheap because the bed was damaged. I found a brand new white take-off bed for $750. It's been a great truck. Not nearly as pretty as the new ones, but it can do 90+% of what that one can do. I paid cash for it. Debt is a ball and chain on your soul.
I hear you. 4 years ago I bought a 2002 7.3 dually F350 for 4700$ with 240,000 miles on it. Did some small repairs and have a truck that can do every thing that 30 year mortgage house payment 100,000$ truck can do. Insanity. He has the money, so don’t begrudge him but, it’s pure insanity they are that expensive. Ford should be ashamed of themselves…
The older trucks with the 7.3 are great but they can maybe do like 70-80% of what newer ones can do. That’s while struggling more and with many less options and not as comfy. But if you are doing as great as JR you aren’t going to be as concerned with the price.
If I can save 95,000$… 😝🤦🏻♂️ no brainer…
I am totally debt free and would never pay that much money for a truck although it is nice it makes sense for him though because of his CZcams channel but for just a regular person buying a truck like that big waste of money
For what it’s worth, I have an 01 7.3 and have driven the new 6.7s quite a bit towing heavy for work and they hardly compare. The new ones pull faster, stop faster and are more comfortable. If you are in the position where you can buy one it’s a no brainer. I am not, and that’s why I drive a 7.3 that’s reliable gets better mileage and doesn’t require def. But they are not the same truck if your end goal is towing and overall comfort
Nothing like buying your first NEW car! Congrats!
My father has been buying Fords since forever, and for the past 20 years, they've been basically flawless during the warranty period.
I'm stuck between excited for you and my inner Dave Ramsey screaming that no one should spend that much money on a vehicle 😂
Listen to dave!
Dave Ramsey is an idiot and its either spend it and use as a deduction for tax purposes or pay taxes on $100k.
bro a tesla cost about as much.
@@jonaldreagan5030 But the cost of ownership on an EV does negate some purchase price. I wouldn't buy a junk ass tesla, but its not always apples to apples.
What a nice truck John, congratulations brother, I'm very happy for you. I was a bodyman at mostly independent shops and over the years (even though I'm a Chevy guy) the Ford's are put together extremely well, and that was 25 years ago but you got yourself a beautiful truck.
Congrats JR. Sick truck. The options and creature comforts of trucks today blow my mind.
Congrats JR on the new ride. 18mpg is great in a 7k lbs truck. Watch your speed, no blue lights in the future.
What your own speed MOM . . .
18mpg isnt great when its $6 a gallon
@@joshhouse1559 You are correct, down to $4.99 in NC. It's all a compromise.
There was a day where $100k could buy you a decent house.
Congratulations on your new vehicle!
Still can just depends where you want to live.
I love the interior bro, it’s different but that sets u apart from every other one! It looks so good with the white exterior! I love it!
Maybe Dodge has a better interior and a bigger screen, but your still looks pretty good and may be all you need. I prefer tactile knobs, buttons and sliders anyways. Screens are flat and no feedback. I find myself taking my eyes off the road more too. Nice truck, congrats!
screen on the Rams overrate, huge but with no physicl buttons not great to use i was surprised at that when my buddy got one, i'd go the smaller screen with buttons in one.
@@jeffmorse5599 ram had buttons on the side of the screen. How many buttons do u need
Congratulations man! Hard work is paying off 👊🏽
For $100K, I'd want a gold-threaded hemorrhoid cushion, a soda dispenser, and a live in detailer/mechanic/PDR guy.
JR I spent 2.5hrs trying to get my cheapazz and old Chinese generator working today. I went thru air, spark and fuel by turns. I eventually drained some nasty orange gas out of the carb and tested a new (not exactly correct) spark plug. I attribute watching your videos to making me successful and not giving up easily. Even something as simple as watching you comment many times whether gas looks or smells ok, helped a ton. So - thank you!!
I have a 150 Limited and absolutely love it. Congrats!
Dunno why everyone is hating on the truck looking “basic” or this and that. That engine chatter and interior color way sound and look great. He probably tows for work so probably wants something nice for his daily job AND can write it off.
Congratulations on the new truck purchase. You went with the best option! The 1 ton with the 3” receiver hitch comes with a 3” to 2.5” reducer insert that works great. You can ask so get the 2” reducer as well.
Also I’ve driven every brand of diesel truck in an actual heavy duty application (Both personally and in a fleet environment) and the ford had the best drive train and Diesel (most horsepower and torque) engine option on the market. The undercarriage/suspension on the GM’s “do not” hold up to heavy duty and off-road work. Our company trucks always ended up in the shop for suspension and steering issues. The dodge was always in the shop for engine/exhaust issues and the body doesn’t hold up. I do agree the dodge currently has the best interior can’t speak to the 2024 interior as I haven’t seen it yet. Really wished Ford would step up their interiors, they’ve done it with the Diesel engine, undercarriage and exterior looks. Why not go the extra mile and give it the best interior as well. The fuel economy that truck will improve some once the Diesel engine breaks in. Mine gets 20-21 on the highway not towing. Tuned and DPF/EGR deleted it’s getting around 25 and I don’t have to worry about stupid exhaust issues and it doesn’t hurt my engine either.
If you haven’t see what the DPF/EGR systems do to your Diesel engine you should look it up. Looked like tar sludge!
There's nothing like a brand new truck! That thing is a beast! Congratulations man!
Hey Randy, good to hear from you!
Very nice truck ,Good to see you pumped about it congratulations
Next episode - My new truck is trying to kill me with death wobble.
I have a 21 XLT POWER BOOST, replacing an 2004 suburban 1500 2wd . It's not even close to the blurb, it is so far above. 25mpg+ around town 25 to 31 mpg on the highway, tows 11000, 430hp, 570 of torque, tows my 7500lb travel trailer like nothing. Point being Ford is now number 1 in my book.
I make a really good living but still can't understand how these trucks are selling at this price point. I couldn't afford the 100k price tag but I wouldn't even pay 50k for a truck. This vehicle is beautiful though and the options are above anything I have seen. Congratulations 🎉
Congratulations JR! I hope you enjoy your truck as much as I've enjoyed mine. I have the identical color 250 but it's a Platinum. You're right to have reservations about that Limited interior color. Those seats were in my last Expedition and started to get dirty and show wear very quickly. Hopefully there's some sort of seat cover or something else that you can use to avoid that.
Lovely pickup JR. With inflation rates so high, in 5 or 10 years an "expensive" truck today will look like the deal of a lifetime. ☺️
inflation is transiet
congrats on the new truck, i think it looks cool and I didn't know the platinum was a lower trim than a limited....learn something new everyday...or at least I hope to.
Congratulations! Taking delivery of a new car is one of the best feelings. And the new car smell.....
Congratulations with an awesome truck John.
It is so deserved that you can acquire such a cool truck, with all the super good videos that you produce for your followers. Have a nice day. 👌👍
I remember having that feeling when I bought my last brand new pickup in 1990 on July 4th. I drove it for 4 years and 80,000 miles and it was the cheapest vehicle I've ever owned when you put a pencil to it. I sold it for $2000 less than I paid for it new and drove it 80,000 miles for the cost of maintenance which was negligible.
Hopefully I don't have to do anything to this one other than oil changes! 🍻
@@WatchJRGo I bet you can do the same as long as you only own it 4 years. That's how long I owned mine.
@@WatchJRGo It's a Ford though, I'd be wary of surprises..
Congratulations!!! Be sure to program the door to a code you can remember so you can use that keypad....very very handy to lock the truck running as you warm it up or gas it up, etc....
I use the door code all the time on the old one, love it 🍻
Never leave your car/truck running when you are filling up with gas. JFC🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
@@vincedibona4687 he doesn't fill up with gas. This is diesel ⛽️
@@vincedibona4687 I 100% agree but I've seen dumb grizzled old men do it many times up in the new england woods. Gas, not diesel.
You by far are one of the few youtubers I get happy to see doing great!
Congratulations for the new truck,, it's a slick ride
Cool new toy, gotta treat yourself once and a while. Never had a new vehicle and doubt I'll ever have one but congratulations 👍
I work at a Ford dealership, I've driven a ton of these. The seats in the Limiteds are next level 👌
Really not a Fords fan but I will say that interior color is very pretty
I grew up as a hardcore Ford hater... but it's the only truck that does everything pretty well right now 🍻
Never heard someone get so excited by floor mats.
Well they are like $300 😳
@@WatchJRGo Understandable 😂. Congratulations on your new truck, deserved.
You ever have a crew of friends hop in on a snowy winter day? No? Thats why the mats are a necessity
Best color ever. My 17 was that color. It looks clean even when a bit dirty.
My ‘05 Accord EX 4cyl gives me 525 mi range @ 33 MPG. (243K on the odo). Nice to see you so happy! N.E.OH Bob
Congrats bud, nothing like the experience of a brand new vehicle. Enjoy!
I ordered a loaded 2023 Limited. It totaled out at $100k as well. You still need a bed liner.
Congratulations on the new Truck. It's always a great feeling buying something new and running it in yourself.
So pumped!😂 As he takes the 65 year old stick gearshift ranch in his hand and flex it into the park position instead of having a new stick shift position that we all wanted 10 years ago no big deal that’ll come out in the next €190,000 truck it’s all good
Congratulations, that’s a great new Ford F250 hard loaded and great color. You earned that, it’s a business tool that will serve you well and save you a boatload on taxes. It’s a keeper for sure!
Congrats you deserve it. 1) did you essentially pay MSRP and get the new car warranty or did you lose it since buying via auction? 2) is the death wobble fixed in this model year?
Yup, basically MSRP, has the factory warranty. No death wobble yet, we fixed it in the old one and it never happened again 🍻
Congrats for your new purchased. Great investment after the few vehicles that are too expensive to repair.
Nice 👍. Same price as the Lightning… yet you’ll get 5-7 times the range on yours, not wait an hour to “fill up” and be able to service it yourself.
And guarantee cost of ownership will be less for you.
You made the smarter choice!
From Mauritius we wish you all the very best now and in the future in every endeavour, been following you for ever.
An Aussie in Mauritius.
In Australia we have heated stearing wheels, when its 100f, the stearing wheel is 150f.
Nice wheels JR 😍
I see what you did there.. 🤣
Wow. I’m really happy for you! You’ve worked hard and absolutely deserve to reap the rewards.
BS
It's better than giving it to the man in his beige office.
The wipers came on temporarily because the camera thought the last bit of the sticker was a leaf or something.
I just subbed a few days ago, and you post high quality videos faster than I assumed. It's great, how don't you have a million+ subs yet
Looking forward to seeing the reliability of the new Ford truck.
The last one cost me $500 in warranty work and 4 oil changes over 40,000 miles 😳
I'm sure the old truck was just as reliable when it was new. 😬
@@WatchJRGocongratulations! I was looking at replacing my 2018 Tacoma due to the horrible auto transmission issues. The shift program is just aggravating and when it randomly goes into neutral is downright scary. Does your new truck come with a dipstick?
I drive a 22 f450 xl crew cab 4x4 6.7 diesel 10 speed for my job. It has 3300 miles on it now. I pull 20-30 thousand pounds daily delivering stone and mortar with a 35ft gooseneck and moffet. It's a beast for sure and it pulls weight really well!
I averaged 22.1 mpg from Iowa too Texas and back with my 2022 powerstroke this summer. But now that I have a level, plow mount and some aggressive wheels and tires I average about 13 city and 15 highway
Are you keeping the radar detector from your old truck? It was such a nice addition. I just got my GMC ultimate. Only a 10 month wait 😅. I got the 6.2 with Super Cruise. The interior is incredible. Congratulations on your new ride.
I had a chance to drive one with a 10 speed as my rental I enjoyed it I loved it
Well Done Mate your work ethic alone says you should be making these decisions for yourself. Here’s hoping the good luck to buying a suitable property as well. Btw it needs a tray liner asap!
I’ve always been a huge fan. I even stay up late some nights, hoping to see a video I can watch when I’ve hopped into bed for the night. But, I’m so wore out with videos showing ridiculously expensive vehicles. Even those of us with money are tightening our belts to be safe… and here’s another video! I know your proud. I’m a fan, I’m proud of you. At a certain point it just feels like bragging.
"I'm proud of you" and then you shit on him for what you call "bragging". It's a car channel, get over it.
I absolutely ADORE this truck in all categories!
That's ridiculous, didn't pay that much for my house. 😳
With inflation rates so high it will look like the deal of a lifetime soon.
Where? Approximately. You cant get a crackhouse for less than 325k here
@@thomas316 No, the FED will overshoot and cause deflation. No one wants a diesel vehicle nowadays anyway. House prices keep falling and no one will buy.
I dunno JR. Not sure that's enough truck!
Haha, I agree 🍻
Do more videos where u flip cheap cars. I think thats what most of your subs want to see
B&O Sound system? That explains $20 000 on the price.... the best ever made.
Getting 17.6 mpg at 85mph is amazing. Imagine what it would be like at a reasonable 65?
Not with $6 a gallon diesel.
Damn, I like the color combo a lot! Blue and white ftw!
Until I get in it covered in dirt 😬
@@WatchJRGo Ah invest in seat covers if you want to keep the leather clean...just an idea.
White is one of those colors that you don't realize just how dirty it was until you wash it. Or someone brushes against it. Bonus is that swirl marks are very hard to see.
That's a sweet ride. Makes my STX look like child's play
Better do the CP4 disaster prevention kit or the change kit to a different pump
Congratulations JR you deserve it you put out such awesome content.keep them coming 🎉
No bed liner?!?! what the heck
That's the only upsetting thing... I'll get it done 💯
Congratulations JR. The 100k is definitely a considered purchase. But it’s literally your most useful tool. Towing and you can’t put a price in comfort and safety.
All best from uk 🇬🇧
Confused how American tax works. If you can buy a new business vehicle and not pay tax.
I love the White with the Blue interior. Very sharp! Enjoy!
$100,000 for a Fix Or Repair Daily - NEVER !!!!!!!!!!!
You just traded on set of Ford problems for another set of Ford problems...😕
Absolutely... and no CarMax warranty for a safety net. Living on the edge out here 😂

@WatchJRGo lol seriously tho I remember you having issues and breaking down in the other truck? I was thinking I'd be pissed if I had a truck that new doing that. But to each his own right...
The Fix Or Repair Daily adventures continue with the $100k version now! 😂🤣😂🤣 sorry JR I couldn’t resist seeing all the fun you had with your last Stupid Dukie. That truck was there for a reason and I’m sure you’ll find out why.
Those interior colors are BEAUTIFUL!
I could never justify this price to myself, but it's cool that they exist!
I’m sure for tax reason they need to claim a loss.
Congratulations!!! As they say in the dealerships “You Need To Treat Yourself”. When you drive this new truck, you know this is for all the hard work hours you put into life……
Congratulations man, you DESERVE it! She'll definitely serve you well. Just treat her right, and she'll perform well for you.
Did the Volt also came back from Dallas?
TL;DR he didn't want to pay taxes on the money he made selling the old shop, so he dumped money into a new truck since the new shop fell through. I'll be surprised if he keeps it more than a year
Correct but you can't just bonus depreciate a truck and then sell it... I'm keeping this for at least 5 years. It's not like it cost me anymore than the last one I kept for 3 years 🤷♂️
@@WatchJRGo Hey not bashing ya, it's a smart move. Also, has it really been 3 years? Damn, seems like you trade up so quick these days. Reserve that for Bentleys and McLarens I guess lmao
Nice truck!! Now just get some DOT door magnets and an orange light bar. Good for driving on the shoulder during a traffic jam.

Only problem with this truck is F O R D!!!
I thoroughly enjoyed your assessment of this f250
I would like more of a deep dive on the transmission shops and what they say is wrong with the Aisin transmissions.
