Driving the 2017 Ford F150 5.0 V8! POV | AutoVlog

[KewlGuy]

I watched this video almost* every day and I finally got my 17' XLT special edition V8. Dream achieved!

[YourLocalFireAlarmTech]

Got a 16 5.0 myself, she's an absolute dream, and I never get tired of driving her! The sound it makes never gets old!

[linhunnicutt]

There's nothing like the sound of that 5.0 v-8.

[jordanburchett]

Even if you are not a ford guy your channel is awesome to watch the way you put out your videos so calm and collected another great vid mike keep it up!

[Metalbass]

I totally agree with you that the V8 cannot be replaced. That magical roar is what dreams are made of. People can praise the Ecoboost all they want, but put the turbos on the V8 and there is nothing the V6 can do to keep up. Excellent video.

I'm glad to see the 5.0L is still an option. I'm not a big fan of the little, baby V6 motors. They get better milage, but in the long term I'm not sure how long those little motors will last without expensive repair. I prefer column shift.

Just bought a 2016 platinum with the 5.0L V8. Crew cab standard bed 4x4. Very happy with it

You asked why anyone would want a light-colored cloth tell you why. It is because a dark interior shows every speck of dust and in a 100 degree day a dark interior soaks up the Sun and burns. Light color Interiors reflect the heat and doesn't show dirt hardly as much. It is also far prettier. I have a 2013 F-150 XLT with the taupe interior in cloth and it still looks brand-new to this day.

Recently got a 2017 F-150 XLT supercab 4x2 with 5.0... the sound is great when accelerating, and with only 4050 LBS curb weight, the 5.0 makes it *move.* I would bet the 0 to 60 is sub 6 seconds. No 'XTR', "FX4' or ' Sport' graphics, just a sleeper.
After 2, 600 miles, the average city / highway MPG is 19.9 ... awesome for a full size V8 pickup with close to 400 HP.

I have a 2015 F150 V8 crew cab and I love it. The gas milage is no bad at all.

[bernadindice]

that's insane how Ford F-150 has freaking 10 speed transmission. I hope that transmission control module is calibrated in a way to adjust instantaneously to different road conditions. A simple example could be like a hill, an automatic transmission worst enemy when it comes to hunting for Gears.

Just bought a '16 F150 Lariat FX4 sport with a 5L today... I asolutely LOVE this truck! Got a few bucks off for year end, so bonus. Bed liner gets sprayed in tomorrow, then it's all mine. Good videos!

[smokan]

How about a 5.0 Ecoboost V8! A boosted engine is king. the torque curve is just so nice...

[TacticsTechniquesandProcedures]

If you want a truck that's affordable the STX usually is the best choice. Ive owned two. Just bought a 2017 5.0 4x4 STX. It's great in the winter. We're about to have our third snow storm. I towed a trailer while we were moving and you could barely tell it was back there. Great truck. Ram 1500 had less space and cost more in the model comparable to F150 Supercrew.

[chadmason]

I have watched this video several times now... It is excellent therapy while I wait to purchase mine! 2-3 months to go.

Love this truck and the 5.0 sound only reason I didn't get it is because now that I've driven an ecoboost, i prefer the way it feels. Don't get why people are always going back and fourth with this shit I respect both

[itsjosuenotjose_]

I watched this review 3 times. After the third time I knew this was the truck I wanted. Thanks!

[topdawgentlv]

I bought a used 2016 with 5k miles on it and boy is it fun to drive I love flooring it to hear that v8 push

[mrdaviddesertfire]

Every time I hear that acceleration it sounds just like the crown Victoria

[joeg]

i still got my 2013 ford f150 5.0 xlt crew cab i love it
