Have an ‘18 F150 and when I first saw this generation I wasn’t sure of it’s looks.... Now, after seeing one in person at my local dealership, I think they’re gorgeous!!! Trust me, these trucks look far better in person then any video!! They’re sharp!
The STX offers a great value and allows for upgrades on a reasonable budget. I also really appreciate Ford offering all engine options across all trim levels. Great camera work and great job on the review Mitchell.
Not quite true. For example, if you opt for the XL or XLT super cab and the 8' bed you can only get the 2.7l, the 3.5l, and the 5.0l, and you can't opt for the 3.3l v6 on any trim above xlt no matter which configuration it is in.
I’d Ike to do more research on this…they are how many Ford models? XL…XLT…what are the others?
@@Jonesislearning there is xl, xlt, lariat, tremor, king ranch, platinum, limited and raptor
Such a great model! The STX is great package for almost everyone out there.
I have the 2019 STX. I think it’s been the best deal in trucks (all makes) for a while now. It’s a great balance of offering the things you want while minimizing the things you don’t need to keep cost down.
Sweet truck thanks for the review
5.0 is King
Had the 5.0 in my 89 Mustang GT Fox body, bought it brand new out the door for $14,200, back then the 5.0 had 225 H.P. which at the time made it one of the fastest cars on the road. FORD has always been the best...thanks for all the memories.
I've heard that the 2.7 has been very reliable and durable. Cylinder deactivation on the 5.0 is a little frightening. GM and Ram have had some problems.
I got the F150 XL with the STX package, the 2.7L ecoboost and definitely enough power. Loving it so far and Ford really did a great job on these new F150's across the board, leather on the steering wheel would have been a nice plus but hey a solid interior
I've got a 2018 F-150 SuperCrew STX 5.0L. Absolutely love it!! One very positive thing to know about the STX package is the high payload capacity number with this package. Mine is 2026 lbs!! Many fully optioned 1/2 tons are in the 1,400 lb range...and I've seen lower. I pull a 6500# travel trailer, so that large payload number really adds to the utility of the STX package!
Also installed high quality leather interior for $2000.
PS: That soft open tailgate shock can be purchased for less than $70 (Ford OEM part). Installs in minutes.
I'd definitely consider another STX package if I was in the market for a new truck.
The STX strikes the best balance between options and price. My 2018 STX has more standard features than my 2006 XLT that I traded out of. The best part is my XLT was a 2WD extended cab and is heavier than my 2018 STX which is a crewcab 4X4.
Just bought one of these and I couldn’t be happier. It’s a great truck and looks amazing.
Looking forward to mods already.
Just needs LED headlights and a leather wrapped steering wheel and then it’s perfect.
I’m sure aftermarket should be having something soon!
Xl stx should let you get a rear sliding window & leds as an option.
If someone showed up to do work for me and used the ruler on the tailgate I would send them home. No real contractor is going to use that ruler.
Cool
it ain't that serious bro
🤡
Used it to measure fish the other weekend on my buddies truck. Forgot the tape measure at home 😂
STX and XLT is the way to go unless you really don't know what to do with your money. I would have liked the lariat and its leather upholstery, but I held back. It's so easy to get sucked into high-end models with 0% financing over 72 months. I try to stay within 25% of my gross income on a new vehicle because I don't want to work into my 70s.
I did a test drive yesturday and the customer actually loved auto start stop
First time
Was his name bob?
Beautiful truck. What I like is that f150s been looking great since 2015.
the 2021's lookin good
Looks the same as last gen
Just get a 2018+ 2.7
@@Brownkilla the cab does. But the rest looks all different
I wish ford would build a bare bones truck with zero frills. With the exact same options as a 1990 xlt. That would definitely keep price down and make new trucks affordable to more people. If you can't back a trailer without backup assist, you shouldn't be driving a trailer to begin with.
Is nice they bumped the stx, but the headlamps are a let down, ford's halogens are like dim candles 🕯. I really like the XLT, but for the $55k I was quoted and no incentives I just can't do. LEDS should be a stand alone package, being able to properly see the road is the best safety feature.
Agree 100% sir. I have a 2021 STX. Love the truck but I can confirm the stock halogen headlights are borderline dangerous…
In Canada the armrest that splits in half to make the flat surface is 200 bucks. For a hinge? I must be missing something I don't see the value.
I don’t get why any vehicle that’s made after the year 2015 doesn’t automatically have HID or Led headlights 🤦♂️ they look better and way brighter.
I won't call the 5.0 coyote a bad engine. The catch is after owning a 2.7L ecoboost powered truck, I will never go back to an naturally aspirated V8. Trucks and turbos go together
like peanut butter and jelly. My 2018 STX has the 2.7L ecoboost. It scared the snot out of me the first time I floored it. At 75 MPH I average 23 MPG. At 65 MPH I average 25 MPG.
and at 56 MPH I average 29 MPG. I won't be in the market for another truck for a very long time. ( I bought my 2006 XLT brand new and kept it until I got my 2018) When I am, I will be buying something with turbos.
I just got the stx 2.7l v6 2021 and what a great cool truck love it so far still getting used to it had a car for a while but definitely recommend
Thank you for making this video. I just got my 2021 STX 4X4 last night because of this.
What color?
What did it cost u?
@@JorgeRivera-hi4li carbonized gray
@@FIGNAS83 46k out the door
@@AltmanA31 shesssh pricey for the base model eh
The 5.0 now makes 400 hp and 410 pound feet of torque. The 3.5 eco boost makes 400 hp and 500 pound feet torque
Thank you TCTV! Been waiting for this. Merry Christmas
I would want to stay STX or XLT simply because I detest console shifters they force you into in the upper trims with a center console.
I would have to say that all of the creases on the hood , around the wheel wells, and stamped FORD are mostly for stiffening the softer aluminum metal so as to protect it from flexing and oil canning. I've worked on heavy jets, all aluminum skins, and they take a beating .
i got a 2020 f150 and very happy with it
I was looking at this so I can see what I can look to as I am looking for a stx 5.0 v8 ford
Sometimes simple is the best.....the stx looks nice !
Man I am really considering a 2021 F150 instead of my Bronco reservation, due to the massive delays. I’d love a SuperCab truck in Lead Foot very similarly equipped as this one. I need to contact my local dealer to see when they’ll be able to order the 2021s. Otherwise, I may reach out to y’all to have one delivered to Texas ha!
They’re making trucks; just got a 2021 F250.
@@frklein1 nice!
Watching this while pricing out a new f150 lol
Nice standard heated mirrors too I think
Still going to wait for my Bronco that I reserved! (But nice try on tempting me!)
I hate that the volume is on the right side of my steering wheel. Glad they moved it over to the left. Can’t wait to see the transformation.
I like STX exterior and the interior of an XLT
The headlights on these lower trimmed trucks remind me somewhat of the 08-10 super duty’s and the newest generation of E-series vans
Tccustoms should upgrade the rear bench. 8ft of leg room is irrelevant when you’re sitting bolt upright. Fiat trucks are moving up since they upgrade the whole truck, not downgrade the rear seats.
Cybertruck ,0-60 three secs ,no maintenance (my favorite), 600,000 pre-orders , available 3 yrs , get in line ,RIP / ICE vehicles 🔥🦖😂
What's the water fording depth? Oh wait, electric.
I got 2018 f150 stx 4x4 2.7 I love the truck I hate the eco boost I want trade it in for 5.0
Excited to see what what your build looks like when you are finished!
Can blind spot monitoring and rear cross traffic alert be equipped on the XL (STX)?
Hey there,
I absolutely love the new style of the 2021 ,
Thanks for sharing!
Awesome video, I was wondering about the fender flares since no 21s seemed to have any on them at all, plus nice to know with the basic pro power onboard you lose the storage space under the rear 60 seat
2015, best front end
I agree. Lol
Whats the lowest trim to get all LED lights. at this point no lights should be anything other than LED.
13:59
Is this on Canada destined trucks as well, or do they get Canadian flags?
The start up graphic is your PM in black face.
Def gonna get American flags. It's not about the destination of the truck, but where it's built.
@@jasonlarsen3515
My PM?
But I live in the USA!
Loving the new design I liked the previous gen as well
🥲 when you just bought a 2020 STX and this video comes up on your recommended 😑
Same haha no regrets though man!
@@dannym3879 oh absolutely no regrets I do like my truck the honey comb grill is probably my favorite thing about it and I got mine with the 2.7 eco boost and for being a small engine it gets up and goes. With the money I saved I look forward to adding a borola exhaust and morimoto led headlights. I did replace the halogens with sealight led bulds on highs lows and fog lights it gives it that new truck look already
@@dannysubohms530 hell yea man, 2020 honey comb grill deff looks better/more agressive than the 2021s. Same bro, I have a velocity blue super cab xl with stx appearance, 2.7 eco, offroad package, with tow mirrors and tow package. All came with it. Love the engine so quick, need to get rid of the limiter though ha. I bought out of state so I deff got a good deal. Nice!! Let me know how the exhaust works out. I did the same highs lows, fogs, 3rd brake/cargo light, tag lights and tail lights brake/turn signal and reverse from f150leds.com. Highly recommend. Might do morimotos later on. I want to do an intake, lift, exhaust, and get and off road front and rear bumper
Can we just get Manual Transmissions back, Manual Transfer cases, Manual Parking Brakes, Metal oil pans, with Metal oil drain plugs on these new trucks?
The smaller screen kills this truck for me. I’m sure custom ordering you could potentially opt for the 12 inch screen but I can’t do that smaller screen there’s too much exposed plastic and it looks very cheap
My brother is in FL waiting for white crew cabs to come they are held up in Michigan
That is a nice looking truck. The lift you are going to do will make it look really cool. Would be nice if it had a leather wrapped steering wheel. That plastic wheel they give you sucks. Kind of annoying you have to spend more and get the XLT with the appropriate package to get into the leather steering wheel. Maybe you guys could get that wheel wrapped in leather??
Im digging the new wheels! looks like raptors 17s but on 20s.
I need those take off wheels for my 2018 f150!
What about 3.0 diesel ? heard you say something about it in intro but didn’t say it was option at the end
I heard him say the the electrical plug-in in the bed didn’t come on a 3.0 diesel package.
thank you for explaining, and showing the actual features
Why does Ford keep putting the best grille on the STX?
Because they secretly want you to buy the cheapest model so that they can stop building so many different trims!
Not sure the money is on the higher ends guess its a joke on them
Power numbers are available.
I wish I have a truck like that 😭
I think ford did an outstanding job for this model go around. A lil more in price tho. I’ll wait 3 yrs and pick up one that was leased.
Mitchell, As always super job! Licking my chops for my next 150 (two years away, lease expires then!).
Last week, I took my 2019 150 XLT into my FORD dealer for an oil change and a Synch 3 upgrade. My screen now looks exactly like the video (at 12:34). Did my software upgrade to a synch 4?
As always. . . Keep up the GREATwork!
Why aren't the XLT drive mode graphics showing the truck in the dash?
Ford's getting thin on the skin. For every "stamp" there's a thinner metal. 2021 looks cool no doubt but it hints a resemblance to the 2016 GMC Denali. I do like they stepped up on the jobsite features. Thank you for the updates Mitchell. T&C is the heat
Great video going thru the features of the new F-150. I appreciate it :)
The fender flare thing they did it to save money
Is the STX only available with the 5.0 in the states? In Canada you can only get the STX with a 2.7L?
So does the truck automatically crank when power is needed at the bed outlet? I plan to get the 6.5' bed length and install truck cap to use as a sleeper for camping, and I'd like to run a ceramic heater which I would set to turn on whenever the temp drops. Would the truck sense the power request and turn on to supply power to the outlet?
Nobody who actually does construction will use the tailgate to cut wood from lol
Not a bad upgrade for a couple hundred bucks, even if you use it a few times for the lifetime of the truck. Good for tying down long items imo
@@ts9271 doesn't it come standard?
@@Techno4more interesting, I thought it was an option. Honestly a fully loaded XLT costs as much as a 2020 lariat. The xl with the stx package, add on the kicker subwoofer which is an option and you have a pretty nice truck for 40k.
@@ts9271 yeah. Still too much, I'd rather buy a used truck and mod it, make it better than a 2021. I may be biased bc I just did that lol. 2016 f150 ecoboost
I have been looking for a STX with crew cab, velocity blue and 5.0 with 3:55 gears. The gears insure to trailer tow package and gvw I want. My combination is either not being made or selling like hot cakes
Just order it.
I like the way it looks before y’all mess it up lol
This will obviously be a work truck with the step tailgate and the power in the bed. Why doesn't it come with the workstation in the front? As a contractor some things blow my mind when it comes to trucks. Why have a truck that's setup to work out of but not workstation in the front? No bed lights? I can see where this sounds petty but one on. My boss has a 2020 xlt without backup sensors. It's a 275 dollar option. Backup sensors on a 2020 is a 275 dollar option? I just don't get it ford. Anyway great videos! I watch them all just because I like the presentation and the wealth of knowledge yall have on your trucks you sell! Keep them coming guys
if it had a floor shifter as an option it would be my dream truck b4 lift tires wheels etc
So what if I want the STX interior in a
RCSB or at least have black interior.
I hate beige or grey
I couldn't help but notice you left off your weight? No matter, we know you're a big guy and adding height goes a long way in demonstrating the room and comfort level of any vehicle. Especially the rear compartment.
Glad u r back and doing well
In about 10 years I’ll be afford that damn thing lol
Once they start running the rebates you’ll be able to get this in the thirties.
@@BrianBourgeois- wow ok
@@BrianBourgeois- when is that? I’m looking for a new truck.
@@matrixmulisha probably in about 3-4 months when they get more aggressive in trying to move them.
I wish you could have the powerboost with the stx package.
Do y’all carry the Arkon off-road Lincoln wheels? Or can y’all order them if we wanted those added to our custom built trucks?
What can’t they offer dual exhaust??? Make sure it sounds good too.
I definitely don’t like the new front end on the 2021. It looks too much like the Ranger grille. It looks good on the Ranger but looks wimpy and cheap on the F-150. The best looking front end is the 2015, 16 & 17 models. The 2018, 19 & 20 looked good in the Lariat trim but not the XLT trim. The interior is nice on the 2021. Even with all the grille choices I still don’t see one that would look good.
Does the driver seat raise up and down?
Wont be much longer and the STX will get priced right out into outer space like the Regular F 150 Xlt and above. I mean sales on STX are so good cause the pricing on the rest is such BS.
Does Blis still work on these lower trims when the towing mirrors are selected?
Can you get the spray in bed liner as an option on the STX package or no?
Yes! Ford offers it on all trucks, but we do it in-house to save money
I’m on the market right now for that truck stx
You should offer a leather steering wheel from TC customs for the STX. That’s my biggest issue otherwise I will get one. Cheap steering wheel covers look bad.
Thank u very much for a wonderful review . Price? Please on this specific one with the options you reviewed
Probably like 48k
Price?
Does the truck uses regular or premium gas?
thanx for the review
Great presentation
wont lie. decent for a base model
Great content! Does the XLT come with a 12 inch touchscreen?
its optional on XLT, not standard, but yes you can get it on XLT.
Not bad looking, but I prefer the 2020 stx front end honestly
Can you do a video on the new Bronco Sport ?
Lástima que mi troca me salió con defectos del diferencial y otros problemas más y no me puedo comunicar con Ford
Payload sticker?
Bout the only thing I really with this truck had was a leather wrapped steering wheel... I get it, it’s a base model and you’re not gonna have keyless start and the big infotainment but the steering wheel is a big deal for me. Possibly a deal breaker and maybe that’s why they do it...
