Total cost was $55 including the application solution/squeegee/cutter kit ($15), and it wasn't too hard but you will definitely need 2 people to do that back window. I've done the windows on both my Eclipse and S10, so with my experience it wasn't too difficult. Definitely going to want to watch some videos explaining the process before attempting by yourself. Your patience and carefulness are just about all you need to do this effectively if you do it the right way. 4/10 difficulty for the sides, and 7/10 for the back.

Grabbed the tint film at O'Reilly's, used 1 roll of 35% non-reflective on the driver/passenger, one roll of 5% reflective on the back, and half a roll of 5% non-reflective on the rear side windows.

Yep! My Eclipse lasted with no problems whatsoever (though I had the back done professionally because the curved hatch was beyond my ability, and had to sell the car a month later), the tint never discolored or bubbled. The S10 was the same, only problem there was the tint ended up ripping slightly when the window came off the track, being scratched by the window slider mechanism.
So far in the F150, there have been no problems, but I've only had it tinted for about 1-2 weeks.
Oh a bonus fact, when that dip**** destroyed my parked S10, a rather large chunk of the back window flew from the truck and landed without breaking, so you could agree that yes properly applied tint film will help reduce the shattering/splintering of glass in an accident.
