Note to self. Never. Buy. A. Used. Truck. From. This. Dude.
Why buy new when slightly used will do? LOL
Lmao!
@@MrBudpln I thought for sure these comments would be funny...I saw this first one and laughed for 5 minutes straight.
Post to CG: f350 900,000 miles. All highway miles never over loaded. Pulled a Jon boat. $45k firm I know what I have
Or a trailer. Probably best to not buy anything from him TBH
Ford engineers are closely watching to see how much abuse their trucks can actually handle :)
Rockport1911 yea it can handle it, but the question is how does it hold up over time... and the answer is they don’t. My dad used to pull 24-32k lbs with a 2001 2500hd duramax for years until he got a different job, and he traded that truck in with 356k miles.
Drew w 876k on my 2000 350 we pull 2 bobcats and back hoe on a 45 ft gooseneck they can handle it and last you maintain your truck it will last
Jacob Long you’re either full of shit or it’s a load you’ve pulled very few times. Or maybe just have the lightest 40+ ft trailer and smallest machines known to man. Because for your average 38’+ gooseneck weight and average bobcat weights that’s more than double the rated towing capacity of any 350/3500 made in 2000. You’re talking 28k+ pounds minimum for for a long ass deck over gooseneck trailer and two bobcats. You can maintain (maintenance isn’t the same a repair) them all you want but that doesn’t do much to help when you’re physically exceeding what the parts can handle and they break which leads to having constantly repairing the truck, then still deal with the risk of overheating. I run a 2000 ram 3500 for my old farm truck and with an 18’ bumper pull skidloader trailer and a 10k lb T650 on it with nothing more than a bale spear attachment on the truck barely gets out of its own way towing that and that load weight wise is a touch over the max tow rating. and I’ve often exceeded that with adding hay and other attachments on. And the truck with 233k miles hasn’t held up, and it’s maintained the best that you can maintain a truck with regular fluid changes, filters greasing all the fittings, brakes etc. But just little more than a month ago it stripped all the teeth off 4th gear hauling cattle. Three years ago the trans broke an input shaft, it’ll blow the intercooler boots off when towing heavy if you can’t keep it out of higher boost levels, and its had countless U-joints replaced in every location.
Get a god dam chevy
Derek Monroe so it can get recalled before I get home
For a truck that has a max 32,500 lbs gooseneck towing capacity I would say your truck took it like a champ.
Ben Coleman LOL!!! Really
Ford is the best
@@hr0521 your ignorant of you think otherwise
@@owenhill4309 Amen
Its max is 34,700lbs Ford super duty trucks across the board have a higher towing capacity. Then Chevy or Ram. The F450 goes up to 37,000lbs
These videos will be used by the prosecution when you wind up killing someone.
This guys 'luck' is definitely going to run out sooner or later...
Yeah this guy needs to do more research on the things he's hauling before he hauls them. He doesn't seem to ever know the weight of what he's hauling. I think he gets looks from truck drivers because they know he's overloaded his truck and trailer.
I think that he cares more about views than about his truck
Exactly
Yup, regression to the mean, cant push your luck that far out.
For 43,000 lbs, that truck did very well! Ford Built Tough!
Just spend about 30k on a used daycab tractor if you have a cdl. Save your pick up trucks life.
david anthony that’s what my boss and I were talking about the other day, you can buy a GREAT condition day cab semi truck and trailer for less than you can buy any new 1-ton or 45-500 series truck for. And hit shot guys are suppose to have their CDL anyways. They last longer and are made to withstand million+ miles not 2-300k max.
@@chevyon37s yes definitely. Depending on your hauling needs, and $ situation. If I was this guy, I'd get a 2016 Kenworth T880 daycab. Sell that truck. Or trade it in.
@@goldentrucker7921 and DEFINITELY DON'T TELL THE GUY WHO BUYS IT HE POSTS HIS RUNS ON CZcams. ROTGLMAO!!!

Nah f.450 or 550 will do it
I’ve been on an 18% downgrade with a fully loaded semi. No problem, you know why, right truck for the right job. Wisen up. Hills aren’t the problem, ignorant driver is.
[][][]MANN Head south out of Dushore, PA on rt 487. There is a big bill board size sign mapping out the grade with an 18% grade marking on it. Its nothing to come across 12% + grades in West Virginia on the back roads. I do a lot of work with the pipelines, and its just part of the job.
Run from Elkins to Seneca Rocks, WV. Thats some nice running there.
Bro you’re comparing a pick up to a semi💀 ofc it’s gonna do it no problem
Jr Ismaelツ Thats exactly my point. He’s got the wrong piece of equipment for the job.
@@2006pete379 but to be honest i give the ford props lol amazing truck
I love how he says never doing that again then a week later he’s towing something heavier on the same road
LMFAO 😂
45000 lbs is semi truck level weight.
And? He doesn't have the stopping power or the pulling power as a semi there's a reason why maximum weight is a thing.
And that considered a heavy load for a semi. It will pull it no problem, but due mpg and wear and tear I choose not to.
I pull food grade tank trailers. in our trailers are loads are typically around 48,000 pounds. Truck with trailer empty is 30100. And I’m sorry but I would never trust any truck. Whether it’s a 350 450 550... 3500 4500 5500. To ever haul anything near 40,000 pounds. That is insanity it is illegal and this guy should have his license permanently revoked for the remainder of his life. Because all I’ve seen from his videos of him acting stupid pulling over loaded trailers and he is going to kill someone sooner rather than later.
@@LJT7907 all his videos is just proof for his ignorance behavior I get it putting his life in risk but he's also putting a mom with 4 kids in a minivan at risk brakes burn up looses control trailer jack knife kills the minivan he's in jail for life all because he thinks a $60,000 truck is compatible of pulling heavy loads you want to pull heavy loads instead of being a little boy go buy a older heavy haul truck and join the club
$60,000 would actually get him a really decent used big rig. Hell half that would still get an okay for what he does. CVSE here in B.C would murder this dude with fines ahahaha
"We are burning the transmission right now"
*keeps it floored*
That's the fun part keep flooring it until it gets up hill😂
LOL
What was he supposed to do
That's why I love this guy
So when is Ford going to buy this truck back and do a teardown and study and examine the shit out of every component to see what they did right!!!!
you mean so they can do it wrong the next time? cause that seems to be what happens with them at times(atleast certain bits of their history thats exactly what they did)

@@nickconrad94 same, my 05 has 224k on it, never skipped a beat except the starter went out last winter. But at 200k thats gonna happen xD (its all stock but a exhaust, coolant scrubber, and rims)
@@nickconrad94 your luck is running out.
I had a 2011 F550. I towed several 30k+ loaded trailers no problem.. Not quite as bad of road conditions but similar grades. also used an H&S Mini Maxx programmer.. Awesome video keep up the sketchy work!!
Peter Cole his is a 350 though. You’re comparing apples to oranges.
Joe Gosselin No sir he comparing an apple to an apple with a more rigid suspension setup
Jesse Taylor NO a 550 and 350 are completely different trucks. Pulling 45k with and f350 and pulling 30k with a f550 is nothing alike.
My point was to agree with his comment of making an upgrade..yes a 550 is much more rigid than a 250/350 .. I hope to see him upgrade to the next one sooner than later..
Peter Cole as do I! He’s beating the shit out of that truck.
That poor truck. Hope you made big money to torture your truck like that.
Yea, hope he charged a new transmission as part of the base expenses, not a smart job to take
trans was fine, good temp. it's those diffs you need to worry about
It was only that hot for a couple hill climbs after that she was fine
@@logdon17 He would have to charge for: a new trans, labor to for the trans, and the same amount of money he would have made in a week (probably 200 dollars) for expenses. Many parts on the truck and the trailer are probably shot to hell as well and will need to be changed soon so, he might as well charge for that too. In conclusion, no it was not worth it. This is a job for a semi.
@@xinferischief1570 just explain to me what you think is fucked up? please and thankyou
I have an anxiety attack every time I watch his videos
YOU HAVE RIGHT TO HE IS GOING TO BLOW SOMETHING APART THE TRUCK IS BEING STRESSED TO MUCH
Who gives a shit about the truck. It's the other lives on the road. Trust me I move drinking rigs in Northern Alberta and BC and regularly haul 80 000lbs to 120 000lbs + on 24 to 48 wheel or more trailer combinations and the thoughts that trump everything else when we are scaling loads, doing load securement, dealing with mechanics making sure nothing is half assed and trucks, trailers, jeeps and boosters are all in their best working order is the thoughts of everyone else on the roads.
A full size pickup could slam into our winch tractors or big bed trucks and they could pass away, we may get whiplash. If we run into a 4 wheeler be it car, truck, SUV, whatever the case, it will likely be a fatality especially if on highways.
That's why we do extensive "pre trip" inspections/walk around, always check slack adjusters on our brake, most of us a properly certified and trained in load securement, and so much more. If one doesn't care about their own life they damn well need to care about others.
BTW that shudder you felt near the top of the grade when hauling a heavy load is the wheels slipping and the limited slip trying to keep up. When hauling a heavy load up a steep grade or a gravel hill I always use 4 wheel full time drive.
If I were hauling that heavy truck that 12 percent grade I would have started at the bottom in 4 wheel low and took my time. In any given situation the faster you try to go up a hill the more energy it takes per second or minute. When you stopped and put the Ford into 4 low the transmission temperatures went down. That's because it takes less energy to pull at a slower rate but more time. Basically: "Work Done" = Time x Energy.
more Time = less Energy.
That’s 228 Fahrenheit. That’s nothing yet. People get them in the 240s with no problem. Send it
Kyle 6.7 that’s hot. Trans clutches are gonna be sweating
We know they heat them up, they keep us automatic trans. rebuilders in business.
Ford gauges are way off.
@@pawtasticdadof532 Trans temp gauge is spot on in all 6.7 Trans doesnt even commands the fan clutch until 245F. Colling reduction mode (extreme lockup all the time) at 260. Ford engineering deems everything up to 255/260 safe. Mercon LV is a champ.
@@joshuarespecki1883 they not accurate at all. Take a temp gun and shoot the coolers, the lines coming out, etc. And good luck running a transmission at 255 degrees.... that's so laughable.
Im a truck guy, and this video is painful to watch.
No worries brand new truck probably under warranty
Bi Nguyen it should have broken
Dot would just love you lol
They wouldnt have enough paper in their units. Resort to emailing the violations to him and hope the judge doesnt have a heart attack when seeingnthe violations hit his desk for processing.
he would fund new tahoe cruisers for every dot cop in the state he got stopped in
I believe hes in canada.
@@irishn8 Canada has many the same rules as the US. Especially weights, how the truck is registered and so forth. The only major differences are the hours of service.
He would be their cash cow.
A long awaited video from my favorite snow Mexican and an even wilder load
Mike Baker
LOL!
🤣😂
in the usa the dot would throw you in jail for hauling that much weight
No they wouldn't if tire weight capacity wasn't exceeded, axles scaled correct, and he runs IFTA, along with being registered for enough weight.
Class a cdl is good for 80,000 this isnt anything as long as the tires arent exceeded
Caleb Lamley it’s still over the weight rating for that truck, still illegal. He definitely wouldn’t go to jail though
Derrick Moyer nope you are wrong there is something call permits
B M have you ever bought a permit the axles still have to be rated for the wight no way he could axle that
This illustrates exactly why i laugh when my diesel friends think there h d equal what I drive with my class A.this is still 30 k lb lighter .
I believe once you get the water or trans up to a certain temp every manufacturer de-rates the power to save the engine and driveline from damage. May be why it felt so good until the monster 12% mountain
Heating a Ford trans. that uses Mercon LV Fluid to 220F* starts forming varnish & LV ATF is very sensitive to fluid breakdown. The PCM will put a vehicle into "limp mode" if it detects excessive ATF temps. on certain models. Machines can be replaced, but you're really playing 'Russian Roulette' with your life and others on the roads. I would trade it in before serious repairs are needed.
skippys shop I’d just do a prompt trans flush personally. Rather than trade it in and lose as much or more than you would spend on a trans rebuild or replacement in that new truck depreciation.
@@bschell1969 Anything above 220s starts clutch burning. Cant change the fluid all you want, but then the clutch is gone in the trans, youre SOL and need a rebuild. Just trade it in and play the stupid card on the dealer before the trans gives out.
Brandon Caldwell like I was saying, I’d just flush it and try not to do that again. The depreciation hit on a new truck will generally hit you harder than a rebuild on the off chance you can’t convince them to do it under warranty. Even on a ford.
@@bschell1969 Again, a flush is useless. He already fucked the clutches. All he would do is flush the grit out of the fluid causing more issues. Leave it be and either trade or let the fucker blow. Personally, trade it in before the thing quits. The lost value is minimal when you can write of gaining the lost value back in taxes.
A 4 or 550 would do you a favor they would be derated but the 488 gear makes a world of difference
Putting that Ford through its paces held up very well very impressed

@@lloydhorn5450 nope. Preferably not.
Big Truck Big RV this guy is unsafe please tell me you don’t think he’s doing an awesome job, he’s being an idiot and is risking not only his life but the others that drive along side him.
IF you want to lock the trans in 1st gear. You should put the shifter in 1st. Not tell the electronics to do it.
The new transmissions have a manual mode that is electronically selected. You can’t physically put the lever down in 1st gear (as far as I know); it’s either D (drive) or M(manual mode).Works great til the computer decides to override it.
@@joelschermerhorn5447 if you look when he shows the dash, the PRNDL has PRND21. So he can manually lock the trans in low. Using manual low will allow the TCM to override the selection and upshift.
Great editing and soundtrack on this one. Wow keep it up. 👍👍👍
Do your truck have exhaust brake? I switched from a 2011 one ton ford to a 2019 one ton DRW RAM and it had an exhaust break which is awesome when hauling heavy load down hills
FORD give this man a discount code on an F450 lol ,,, nice video man!

Giving hotshots a bad name 1 load at a time. Cmon man smh 🥴
Definitely need a 450 or 550
the 350’s actually are rated to tow more in 99% of configurations
@@brendan747 the 450-550 has extra weight due to upgrades thus reduced rated tow capacity. You have access to better gear ratios for towing. It has larger brakes, larger axles, stiffer springs, higher payloads per config extra frame reinforcements, wide track front axle for more stability and better turning radius. Among other little tweaks. The truck might weigh a couple hundred lbs more. Steeping up up in gear ratio will more then compensate for that. He's already over rated limits so makes no difference. A 450 will pull more and stop more. It's safer overall for heavier loads regardless of ratings.
SlowcarsInc i know the differences, i was just stating that legally, he is less over weight with his 350. he needs a 650+ for the weights he pulls
@@brendan747 even a 650 is not rated for what he tows. He honestly needs a class 8 truck for the weight he's towing. No class 3-7 truck that I know of is rated for a 45k trailer. Although the need for 4wd etc he'd def overall benifit from the haviest frame largest brake 4wd he can get which I think is typically a 650/6500 series truck. He'll be down on power but have an extra 3k of truck to tame the load and prolly twice the brakes. I know 4wd is available in all classes of trucks classes but the higher the class the more costly and less common it becomes. As well as practicality and maintenance etc. I do believe it's legal for him to tow the weight where he's from but I'm not sure on that.
@Yar Nunya is that the law in his Provence? In my state you can exceed gvwr and tow ratings if you've paid for the weight via your registration as long as your within what you paid you're good.
Instal an aftermarket trans cooler of you dont have one already
Its stock he hasn't done anything to it...
NO BUY A 550 OR 650
CROBINSON I was just going to comment this but I would also do a aftermarket radiator and a nice mild tune just to open it up a bit but I am saying like go to a legit tuner and Dyno.

Speaking as someone who haul's 200k plus daily here in the states the reason you had such a hard pull after you unloaded the little shack and snowmobile was your load was uncentered had to much weight on your trailer and not enough on your drives and believe it or not this does make a difference not saying that you don't know that just passing a little info on to the next generation.

you pour def the same as you pour doggie snax! :) Always wondered about a 20 gallon water tank with a windshield washer pump to add some cooling to the cooling pack by spraying it into the grille under maximum effort.
I just want to know how many miles where on the truck when he traded it in and did he have any major repair bills along the way.
Love all the fussing. Glad you take it all well, and dont let it keep you from wanting to share with the rest of us. Impressive rig. I long for people who are willing to push equipment to the limit. I gotta say, these new trucks are no joke. Good luck to you
I've only towed a small load in comparison (7,000) but I would think the worst thing to do would be stop on a hill. Even if the trans is suffering, getting it moving would be a lot more difficult.
I have a f250 and as I watch this video, I look down at my truck and think to myself sorry tranny but I’m not stopping bc stopping on the steep hill then start again would seem to cause more damage getting 43 thousand pounds moving again
Good video. BTBRV put the link in for me. That’s an immense amount of weight. Hope it paid really well. These moments are why I miss granny gear.. lol.
its a miracle that drive shaft doesn't twist like a straw
