    The way I see it the Super duty and the ram are both good but they fall under In different categories in my opinion, I’d get the ford power stroke if I had a family and a tow hauler/ boat just because it’s a little bit faster and I’ll have that confidence merging on the highway and quick accelerating power passing a vehicle on the right lane especially on a steep incline, yeah the exhaust break isn’t the best but I’m pretty sure you’ll be fine towing those trailers they’re big and heavy but they don’t weigh that much , as long as you know what your doing and have experience towing you should be fine stopping safely. Where on the ram side I’d get it if you were doing a lot of heavy towing like gooseneck trailer’s transporting cars or dump trailers filled with gravel shingle debri or rocks, and especially if you live in a area where there are a lot of hills that’s when that Cummins exhaust break would shine stoping power , but either way you can’t go wrong with any of them , it’s just which one suits you and which one you like better if I had the choice I’d go with the power stroke beautiful good overall truck but no hate towards the ram also good looking truck just personal preference 🤷‍♂️👌

      As someone who's been in construction for half my professional career. I do not need an exhaust break when towing/hauling heavy. That's what good heavy duty truck and properly setup trailer breaks are for. I've hauled many things with ford's, rams and GM's. And prefer ford's for their power. They also had better heavier duty breaks as well.

    I have a 2017 F350SRW and a 2019 F450. My trailer is a 2018 Jayco Seismic, coming in at 20,500lbs. I tow through the mountains constantly. Downhill on a 7% grade, I never touch the brake or accelerator, I use adaptive cruise. If I want to go from 65mph to 45mph, I hit the decelerator button.
    Ford uses engine + transmission software to control your speed.
    Those that are looking for a violent feel with the ex brake, just need to stay with Ram, Ford focuses more on the speed you want to go.
    I have never been more relaxed while towing than I have with these two trucks. No drama.

  • @tylersorensen9597
    @tylersorensen9597 Před 2 lety +6

    In the ford when you’re going down hill you need to use the cruise so the truck knows how fast you want to go. It will hold that speed without using brakes. You’re right on the exhaust brake on the ram, it’s ALWAYS working. I’ve found on my F350 it’s a lot stronger when it’s in cruise control

    Enjoyed the video, great job. When at that level, both trucks are very good, but don't forget that when the RAM is turning into a pile of rust, the Ford will will still be shiny because of the aluminum construction. The added advantage of the aluminum is Ford made the frame stiffer because they had the weight savings from the body. I own a '21 F350 dually 6.7 and tow 16,400 with it. It performs VERY well. Keep up the good work JB.

    After owning 2017 F250 6.7 for the last 5 1/2 years and now having a 2022 Ram 3500 6.7 HO, I am glad I made the switch to the Cummins platform. Night and day difference on the exhaust brake and temps on the trans, not to mention not having to worry about a CP4 pump failure due to fuel viscosity fluctuations. After spending $12,000 on a CP4 failure in the Ford that isn't covered under warranty or insurance gives me peace of mind with the Cummins since they reverted back to the CP3.

    What people need to understand is that transmissions with more gears need to be down shifted two maybe three times to have the same results as a transmission with less gears will get with one down shift. Semi trucks can have 9,10,13,15 even 18 speed transmissions. More equals closer ratios. More down shifts are required to get the same results as transmission with less gears

    It’s sure nice to have these great trucks to choose from, they’re all pretty damn good these days. I’m a ford fan but I spent a decade working out of a super duty in the oilfield. Overloaded, shitty roads, some brutal conditions and never had any problems. Ford was by far the most common service truck in the oil patch, the dodge ruled on the highway running hotshot service and the chevies were pretty non existent in the service side of the oilfield. A lot of pumpers ran half tons for checking wells and such but no heavy duty use…

    The Ford does not work as hard pulling my 15k 5th wheel and the ability to get up to speed is insane.
    Lastly, the Power Stroke on its best day will never sound as good as a Cummins.

  • @OldGuyGolf
    @OldGuyGolf Před 2 lety +1

    An exhaust brake is not meant to stop your truck. It is meant to maintain speed or reduce speed when descending steep grades. This helps prevent brakes from overheating and failure. If you notice on the Ford when you are going down a hill and you tap the brake on your descent the truck never goes over that speed that the braked was tapped. Why would you want your truck to continue to slow? Then you have to give it gas again while descending to get back to the speed limit. That makes no sense. I have pulled our camper across the country and I don't even turn on exhaust brakes unless I am in the mountains.

    Exhaust brake in auto is definitely way better. It will hold the speed that you essentially set when you let off the brake going down a steep grade. I certainly think Rams exhaust brake may be more intuitive but once you learn in ins and outs of the Ford it works good.
    I made a mistake when going down to the Smoky Mountains and went on Rt 19 through Maggie Valley on my way to Cherokee, NC instead of taking Rt 74 to Rt 441 with my 9,000 travel trailer. When I passed Soco Falls my 2020 F-250 with the 6.7 PS was at 3800 rpm. It held 30 mph down a 6% grade for close to 8 miles without hitting the brakes. It held that gear and speed for close to 20 minutes. I could tell my wife was uneasy with how loud it was in the truck but I was confident with my ability to stop and control the truck down that steep twisting road.
    My oil temp was at 240 degrees going up the hill and 215 coming back down. I could only imagine what my rear diff temps were. I’ll be changing rear diff fluid this winter.

    I drive a 2022 Supercab F550 daily for work (previously had a 2020 Supercab F550). I'm in and out of it all day, lots of miles and hours, and it weighs about 15,000lbs on the norm, I'm currently at 26,000 miles on the 2022, and over 2400hrs. Both of those were/are 10 speeds. The 2020 10spd took a crap at 8,500 miles and had to be brought in for repair, it ended up putting about 35,000 miles on that one before I jumped in the 2022. The 2022 10spd so far, has been doing okay at a total of 26,000 miles. From my understanding, the 10spd transmissions are non serviceable. That is what the mechanics in my fleet have told me. No filters to change, no drain valves, no pans etc. There isn't even a dip stick under the hood. Multiple other F550s with 10spds have had problems as well.
    The exhaust brake on both the 2020 F550 and the 2022 F550 were completely random when they would come on. I've had both trucks run through the Allegheny mountains in PA, and never noticed the exhust brake working like in my personal 2014 3500 SRW Ram Cummins. I pull a 5th wheel travel trailer (also with gen 2 Goosebox) with my personal truck, and the exhaust brake is nothing short of IMPRESSIVE, on how it will slow the combination down at will.
    My current 2022 F550 scoots pretty good for as heavy as it is (the 2020 did as well). But I truly think after putting over 50,000 miles between two different 6.7L Powerstrokes with 10spd transmissions, that it is just too many gears. It's always searching for gears, tends to hangout in some gears much longer then others, it skips gears in search of a higher one. I mean whats the point of 10 gears, really? You can't even service it.
    I'd like to see an 8spd trans offered for some of these heavy (light duty) duty diesel trucks.
    I'll take the inline 6 over either of the V8's anyday.

    Ford did a great job with the 6.7 powerstroke. The transmissions in Super Duty’s have always been solid no problem there . The Allison 10L1000 transmission is a fraternal twin of the Ford TorqShift 10 Speed 10R140. In fact, this transmissions internal components are largely interchangeable with those of the Ford, the parent engineer of this product. Ford also has a superior cooling system over GM and Fiat. They run hotter but it’s keeps running GM Fiat get that hot need to stopped to cool down.

The tow rating on the F350 without the Tremor package would give much better towing capacity and the tires are setup for towing versus off-road. I wish the Tremor was setup to tow like the regular F350 as I had a Raptor before my F350 and they are a great looking truck. Just setup for a different use.

    You gotta learn how to use the camera. Works great! You have to trust the dotted line and start putting the gooseneck in line with the line starting at your tailgate and it will put your right on the ball. I know it looks like the line does not line up perfectly with the ball but it does, just trust it. I used to have issues with it becuase I would try and line it up once the gooseneck got in the bed, by that time its to late to get it lined up. (This is for ford trucks).

    Many, many, many people who reviewed the PS all say the same thing about the exhaust brake. The newer trucks, 20+ 10spd exhaust seems to be better than the old 6spd but no where as good as the cummins. I agree, the exhaust brake is the only downside to the PS. I don't think it's just the 10 speed trans that's the problem as gm is even worse... According to TFL, almost %50. So it's a design issue. With my Ram, I didn't even realize my trailer brakes were out of adjustment because the ram exhaust brake works so well. @TFL, Ram, 0 brake applications, Ford 5 and GM 9 towing 30k while coming down Loveland pass. No comparison the Ram exhaust brake is far superior. Only other downside is I'd hate to lose my air suspension.

In trailer towing mode with engine braking engaged, I had no issue rolling down a steep grade. Engine braking is great. I believe the engine braking is on when you select trailer tow mode, if you hit the engine braking button you might have turned off the auto mode. The second thing I wonder is if the Tremor package changes the way it works. 8.2 mpg sounds about right, you reset the mileage with a bunch of down hill on the way back, so the mpg is slightly skewed due to that.

      Hey Scott, I have a 2021 F350 pulling 14300 empty and typically 15k loaded. I will tell you that the engine brake does not engage just by selecting tow mode, at least I have never seen anything to indicate it would be engaged when that mode is selected. That only engages the transmission to act differently. The engine brake button does show two modes, automatic and full. Some say the braking seems to work better on automatic, but you can actively hear the engine brake on the truck with the window down and hear the turbo back feed. That is how you know it is on via audibly. Just figured I would let you know.

    First off. Let’s set the record straight. Just incase ur not aware. FORD is the only manufacturer that designs and builds they’re own Diesel engines and transmissions themselves, without the HELP of outside companies assistance. Only thing Dodge and Chevy own rights too is the Body and frame and that’s questionable. So wen a company invests in themselves 100% then quite naturally they may come up short or not to certain people expectations somewhere. Ford don’t need Cummins, nor Isuzu to build they’re product to keep up. Think about that. Hmmmm!

But anyhow. The other two companies can’t truly take credit for a product they bought to hopefully give them an edge. And still didn’t work. That’s like Christopher Columbus discovered America.

I have nothing against Ford SD’s but saying they are better because they build their Powertrain in-house is comical… They literally had lawsuits against every diesel after the 7.3L which to this day is highly regarded over the “built in house” Powerstroke
