I can't believe this thread has turned into 28 pages and 280 posts, only 5 from the OP.

BTW why would a 2015 only have 21k miles on it? Not saying it didn't only that's pretty unusual for a 3 year old truck.

My 13 only has 24K on it.....

My 2015 was put in service in Late March of '15...... It has 23,000 on it.

I do have 2 other Fords I drive....and I'm retired....What does that mean?

It means I don't get up every morning and have to beat the vehicle back and forth to work every day.

So you see.....It's Not that unusual.

You guys need to give cthusker a break. I am sure that by now everyone is aware that he really does not know it all.

Retired here too. Got a pristine '11 3.5 FX4 SCAB with 43,000. ESP extended warranty out to 2020. It's had the limp-mode issues and now has "the hole. and an AFE dual filter cold air intake. Also has a competition catch can that collects a lot of bad stuff before it gets to the intake manifold, Just ran injector cleaner through it and it's running great. No tune. Will break the tires loose on a WOT downshift to 1st gear from 15 mph but while that surprises folks, it's tough on the tires. Pretty happy with the truck now.
