Sounds like you won't be happy with a ford. Thanks for stopping by.

bobkyle2, well i am still looking forward to it but I need a reliable truck from Ford. I am not yet in this position (not a F-150 owner at this time), I just cant imagine how many people here are happy and not happy with all this issues.

And you think the complaints in an online forum are somehow representative of Ford's quality?

For every poster that complains there's likely 1000 Ford owners that are happy and don't log in here to complain. If you are letting an online forum shape your view of a brand, then you are... misguided.

How many f150s does ford sell? Probably more in a month or two than there are active members here.

People on forums post to bitch or look for help.

Hardly a representative amount of people to form a real conclusion regarding dependability.

Now, do I need to buy a Ford F-150? or this forum is leading me to NO choice at all.


I think this should be the right meaning for FORD (Fix Or Repair Daily) this is what FORD to me now.
Pity.

Not sure how many the sell, but IIRC: approx. 1,200 per day 6 days per week roll out of the Dearborn Truck Plant alone.

You're right...you couldn't imagine so move on over to the import lot!
There are millions (imagine that) of truck owners...just like me who are extremely happy with our trucks (imagine that) who have had no problems with them (imagine that) even with the ecoboost (imagine that).

Seriously dude....I had an 04 Nissan Titan for 10 yrs. And I was proud of that truck (sunk like $8500 bucks in aftermarket parts!) it too was not perfect...it had issues during its run that I'm sure some did and others did not.
But I will tell you that the F150 is definitely a much better truck than the Titan ever was!
So stop worrying about what other people are experiencing!
Go test drive one -the F150 rocks! And I've got a 14 F150 4x4 and it is a beast of a truck with 0 issues!

Hey I'm not completely bashing imports...
It was a figure of speech...I own two Nissan SUVs and they have been the best vehicles I have ever owned...serious.
When it comes to full sized trucks however I'm afraid the window of choice is limited. That's why I bought my FX4.


Cheers!

1. Transit bus = Hell yeah.
2. Import lot = too sexy.

Well, I still need an F-150.
