2020 Ford Super Duty First Drive | Road Trip Time! 

Your first drive is more thorough than most other channel’s full reviews.

The best reviews on RU-vid, most thorough, camera angles are the best also. Let’s see the Tremor with the 7.3 gas

The trailer brake controller is "standard" as part of the trailer towing package. Every time you say "should be standard" means the base price of the vehicle goes up and then you have a whole lot of people complaining about "costing too much."

Said it before and will say it again, no reviews is as in depth and technical as AoA.

First time viewer, and, I gotta say, "You're the best!" Really like the on-camera comparison between the Big 3, showing the similarities AND the differences in ONE video. The balance is GREAT! Y'all Be Safe!

My test drive of the 2020 6.7 diesel is best described as 'smooth'. It rides and drives better than my 2017 Superduty.

Very well done. This review, like many others, was very informative. My pick for what would be my fourth heavy duty pickup would hands down be the super duty. Ram is lagging behind with the power output and the extremely annoying two versions of the cummins. GMC is just way extra, and the tailgate seems to me like a hassle. Chevy is just FUGLY. And i will have to agree with you alex when you talk about the silly backup assist on the ford. Thats the one feature they could’ve left off. Overall, just my opinion, but ford is just the best all around heavy duty pickup package.

The GM's tailgate step is pretty neat except that it cannot be deployed if you have a drawbar with a hitch ball installed.

I’d pick the ram 3500 gas even though it’s got slightly lower numbers. I always want a nice interior because that’s what I have to look at when using the truck, the most.

There is no competition with the Ford F-450.

Excellent job, Alex ! Love your reviews. I watch most of it even tho I have no intention of buying a NEW vehicle any time soon . . . but I like to stay up to the latest on the auto and truck worlds. I'm one of those few weirdos that like the front end of the 3/4 and 1 Ton Silverados. Looks very truckish and industrial. But overall I like them all aesthetically. Used to drive an F-350 dually crew cab at work, I love that 6.7L Diesel V8 but makes for a VERY nose heavy truck, In high speed long sweepers you could feel how that mass wants to keep going straight instead of going with the curve.

The front of that blue truck looks awesome.

I’m pretty sure you can use the camera while it’s in motion. I think you have to disable the safety feature in the settings. I’ve seen other reviews such as *Rati rides* use the cameras in full acceleration.

My first pick is GMC duramax. Best looking by far. Second pick is the F 250 with the 6.2 gas. Plenty for my 9000 lbs travel trailer. You didn't mention rear end ratio on the trucks

10 speed come with 6.2 as well on f350. max payload is a package with late availability DRW F350 XL 2wd with 6.2 and 6 speed trans 2 seater with mini floor console

I ordered the F350 XLT Crew Cab long bed with the 7.3 and the 3.77 rear end. I am in the hurry up and wait portion of the process now.

Best reviewer. Thanks Alex. Really appreciate the Super-duty reviews.

I have been a cummins guy for years. As I’m looking at these, I will probably move towards a Ford because the rams don’t offer the higher power numbers comparable to the fords in a 3/4 ton. Great review Alex!

Alex, I am relieved to see you do most of your highway driving in the right lane ;)

Damn that new 7.3L V8 is so fast. I'm starting to like that engine.

Nothing says America like recreational max towing up a mountain at 75 MPH once or twice a year. So stupid it hurts. Adding together all the costs of ownership over ten years, unless you are an OTR trucker, the gasser is the best option.

Radar sensor behind the windshield also means the cost of replacing the windshield goes up because you now have to pay for re-calibrating the sensor if the windshield is replaced - that adds at least another $100 to the cost of a windshield. So, no matter where you put the radar - there's going to be a downside.

I noticed he did not mention the price so I jumped over to the Ford website and configured one like this one. Turned out to be in the low $70K -$75K range. That's a lot of money. I would venture to say that is why the majority of trucks I see around where I live are XLT models.

You mean the lock for the spare tire...not the tailgate.

Phenomenal review, thank you Alex 🙏!

"Horsepower sells cars. Torque wins races"

You do NOT need a commercial drivers license for trailers over 10k or a GVCW over 26001 if the vehicle is not a commercial vehicle, or used for commercial uses. People have straight up tractor trailers with race trailers, and they don't need a CDL or DOT numbers. That said, it seems more often than not that small business owners will tow 10k+ trailers on their pickup trucks without the CDL, completely oblivious to the law.

A few corrections: 1) The front grill is ONLY different on the 2020 F450 as Ford wanted increased air flow on that model. The 2020 F250 & F250 will have the same new style front grill. 2) The 2020 F250 & F250 SHORT BOX now all have a 3 INCH receiver upgraded from the 2 1/2 inch receiver that came on the short box 2019 F250 or F350. The 2019 F350 LONG BOX came with a 3 INCH receiver. Important to noter that the 3 INCH receivers have larger hole opening for the chain hooks which were problematic on the 2019 2019 F250 or F350 short box trucks as most people had to add a 3/4 shackle to accept their chain hooks

I used to be a ford guy after owning several Super Duties a 2002,2011,2013,2016,2018 and a 2019 King Ranch Ultimate dually that caught fire inside the cab on driver side almost trapping me inside . Was hit on passenger side and it caught fire on driver side. Lucky i was able to get out but something to think if you have children in a car seat or baby carrier.. What then... good luck... Called FORD Corporate to report it and they could care less..

LOL king of the short trip.

4000 lb payload,damn,that tractor trailer type numbers.

I wonder how long the manufacturers will keep playing leap frog with their torque numbers. I'm hoping that eventually someone will stop slightly raising the max torque and do something radical like finding a way to cram an engine brake under the hood.

Oh man the new Chevy HDs are hideous

I have been driving Ford trucks to tow trailers with for years. I love Ford towing mirrors especially the remote control upper mirror. Lately you testers have been complaining about the wide angle mirror not being power. I find that I adjust mine the day I buy the truck and never have to touch it again. It would be a waste to power it. In fact at work we all share trucks and I have never had to change the wide angle mirror on them either. How does that GMC jack knife tailgate work for you when you have your hitch in the receiver??

I'm here for the Powerstoke. Hopefully, you'll have one in the Tremor that you review.

Hope they fixed the blinding halogen headlights from the previous model

CDL is only required if you are getting paid to drive it. for personal use there is no limit except CA otherwise you wouldnt be able to driva an RV anywhere. you wern't allowed to dive ford's bbecause ford was getting paid for the trailer they showcased and teh kobota equipment.

Hi Alex Thank you for all your nice videos Also you really deserve to be one of the leaders in this work with your channel and I wish you cross the 1M subscriber soon May I request you to review the mitsubishi montero sport 2020 If you can put your hands on it, it would be great

what about the F550 or the F650 or the F750

I’ll buy F250 Tremor 😈

Super duty please

Very good review. Thank you. I have one question. What is the rear end gear ratio on your F-250 7.3?

FORD💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾

Well done Alex! Love all your reviews. Have you reviewed 2020 6.7L Powerstroke? I'd love to see it. i'm having trouble deciding on the 2020 F350 6.7 or the Ram 3500 6.7L Any suggestions ?? I'd be using them for towing mainly.

One should never directly compare a Chev/GM to the equivalent Ford. It is insulting to the Ford and completely humiliating for the Chev.

Where's the European folks in the comment section? Oh wait...they can't drive land yachts in Europe.

What was the axle ratio on this truck?

Cant wait to get minds

Alex on Autos - Why haven't I never seen you do a report on regular cab trucks ever ? Why only crew cab 4 doors , I never seen you advertise a 2 door F-150 , Ram- 1500 or Toyota tundra they do have then in regular cabs .. They dont make luxury regular cab Chevy , Ford , toyota & dodge trucks ? Unless you font regular cab trucks that why you dont do advertising on them ? Just saying all I've seen on your RU-vid Channel ..

Does the tremor have 4wd auto? If it doesn't, I feel it might give you some problems if you were to go through i70 in Colorado during a snow storm as you will have to switch it back 2wd every time you take a curve (the front axle will spin faster).

Am trying to determine the best Ford truck (F-250) for a travel trailer (abt 7K GVWR) or 5W (about 9.5K GVWR). Which eng (gas: 6.2 or 7.3, which or diesel 7.3)? Prob going to do some boon-docking, so, leaning to 4WD. Y'all Be Safe!

Beware of the infamous super duty death wobble. Thousands upon thousands of complaints and lawsuits. Buyer beware.

Will this fit 3 carseats across the back?

Before I even get into which truck I buy, if it was a Class 2B (3/4 ton) it would be a gasser and if a Class 3 (1 ton) it would be a diesel. My reasoning behind this either I can get away with the capabilities of the gas engine in a 3/4 ton and not have the 10k investment into a diesel that will cost more to maintain, or I am pushing the SRW trucks to their limit and need the 1 ton diesel grunt. I wouldn't want to be the guy with a 3/4 ton with 18k gooseneck and loading the truck like right up to its payload limit of around 3k. Just me as the driver would legally max out the truck and anything like tools would just be overloading the truck. But if I am towing a 14k trailer with that 3/4 ton then I would only have about 2.1k pin weight and have a good 900lbs of payload to spare for occupants, gear and tools, and that I can tow with a gasser. I would most definitely get a Sierra HD. The High Country Silverado looks nice but I can't stand the bold brown and black interior. The Sierra also offers the multipro tailgate in all trims of the 2500 and 3500, so you can get a base trim with it. I seem to be the only person on the planet who likes the GM interiors more than the Ram and Ford. I find ford's interior to be overly cheap when going beyond an XLT. There is just something about it that screams fleet vehicle, even in a limited. Ram took their 1500 interior and designed it for the limited, then scaled it down to make the tradesman. This is why the ram has such a nice interior and all the luxuries just seem to flow naturally. But I like the raw functionality of the GM interiors over the other two. I like the button locations, the HUD, the cameras, and I even like the plastics on non commonly touched areas to increase durability, since at the end of the day a pickup is a work tool, whether its a fleet vehicle on a construction site or towing a horse trailer off a ranch. And with that refreshed powerstroke, I am worried about its longevity with just how much torque they are pushing through it. The commercial version is still rated for 850ft-lbs, which is significantly less. The 7.3 on the other hand seems to be a much more serious contender. Just as usual ford is hunting those best in class numbers as you said .1% of trucks actually have. I think GM's max tow numbers (excluding the 3500 dually reg cab) are a lot more realistic to what people will actually buy whereas ford and ram both take major hits as you climb the ladder. Also the silverado being able to tow 35,500 in that max tow with over 100ft-lbs of torque different vs the 37,500 of the purpose built towing f450, and especially the f350 with 35,750. So we are really are limited by tires, bakes and suspension. The reason the f450 gets the towing it does is the wheels, tires and rear axle. Also I may be wrong but the ram 2500 with or without airbags should have coil rear suspension.

Duty Doody Doodie

Just so you know you can't drive a trailer, you pull it, it gets towed where to go. Also if you can't back a trailer straight, you probably shouldn't be pulling a trailer.

I wonder if one could install the F450's Wide front end to get the best maneuverability?

What color is that?

Is the 7.3 Flex Fuel ?

I thinks it's silly to have to have a CDL for the f450 ... it's still a pickup ... I think anything over 40k lbs u should be required to have CDL's

I'll bet you can barely notice a difference between the 6.2 and the 7.3.

Niceeee

What's with the chin spoiler...can it get any lower.

I like seat massage.

I was actually thinking, the torque isn't that high for such a high capacity engine... 7.3 and only making 475!

F250 ok

Gas in this truck is a never for me. Diesel is my favorite.

Codeit yellow

Price comparison?

You need a CDL to tow over 26000.

Awesome

anylevellift

The most inflated price on the planet !

Good review. I still prefer the ram pick ups to this.

Tundra who?

🛻 The new Silverado is the ugliest truck ever made!

Say a bit less - speak a bit slower ánd BREATHE from time to time : you almost sound like a horse racing commentator - very tiresome

Please stop say in the comment section below. We know where the comment section is located. It’s annoying and redundant....

Trash interior needs to look at RAM and make things better+bigger FORD IS STUCK IN 1999 interior

The 2020 Super Duty seams “gayer”.
