I'm a Ford truck man...

This is my 4th Ford truck, but first F-150. I had three Rangers previously and finally worked my way up to the F-150 Supercrew. I bought it new in DEC 2004 and have logged almost 25k miles. Mine has the 4.6 liter V-8 and gets an average of 17 mpg (actual) but I have recorded as much as 21 mpg on highway trips. I'm probably a little obsessive about calculating my mpg on every tank, but I'm the same way with maintenance so I suppose it's a good trade-off. It could use a little more pep, but that OK with me I have a motorcycle if I want to go fast.

The only problems that I've had are small. The biggest one is the trim panels and outside mirrors rattle a bit. It just irritating. The other problem was water pouring in the truck when it rains. I am fortunate to have a neighbor that works for the local Ford dealer. He immediately identified it as the gasket around the 3rd brake light mounted on the roof. The fix was a $3 tube of sealant. I did it myself to save a days hassle by going all the way to the dealer.

Other then that I've had no complaints and only compliments on how good it looks and how roomy/comfortable it is. Plus it tows my boat like it's not even back there.
