Keep in mind the '04 model, was the 1st model year for the new model after the 97-03 version. From looking at TSB's and recalls, the '04 has quite a record for many items, while those all steadily decrease through the '05 and '06 models.

So even though I think it's partly your both got a problematic truck, whether built Mon./Fri., I think a lot has to do with the 1st model year bugs and problems. This is why I waited until '06 to upgrade.

But my truck was built in 6/06. Scary thing I worry about is that it was built on 6/6/06.

Default problems here

i recently traded my 04 f150 supercrew 4x4 lariat i owned it 1yr 1month during which i had cam pazer problems low oil pressure the trans and torqure convertor were done as well as ball joints brakes electrical and many more problems to many to list. i got tired of it even with an exstended warranty not having my truck 1 week out of every month and still paying for it made me very angry. so i bought a mustang gt certified pre owned loved the car but after 1 month of owning the rear developed a noise to make a long story short i lost more than a month use due to ford "rebuilding the rear 5 times" then after it was still making noise louder than ever ford engineers told me no problem found and washed their hands of the car so i guess ford doesnt really care about the customer sounds to me like they would rather brush all the problems under the carpet so next week am trading the mustang back in on a roush mustang that is new and made on a wed then will get another truck same week for myself as the wife will get the stang
