quality of the new trucks
hey everyone
so i got a 2009 ford f250 crew cab long box 4x4 5.4l
iv been really happy with the truck but with only 33000km on it the interior is falling apart.
it does see allot of logging roads.
the cloth that the seats are made of seem to be veary light
i got rips tears and looks beat up even after cleaning it up.
the plastic cover around the front seat keeps breaking cant tell yea how many times iv glued it.
its bad when you have a 09 and considered trading it in for a older better quality truck.
any one els having quality issues?

I would have to agree that the quality of my old 2000 f150's seats seemed to be a lot better than my 2009. I bought off the lot, wish I would have ordered an xl with vinyl seats. Ford also replaced my steering wheel at about 20,000 miles because it was worn more than my old 2000 with 160,000. I guess I would still rather replace seat covers and steering wheels than trannys and motors like the off brand trucks.
