Lightbulb Forum Section Name Change

Admins, can we get the name of this forum section changed to the 2015 F150 Problem section? Then have a separate forum section for non-problem topics?

Just skimming down the list of topics over the first 8 pages, the majority are complaints, troubleshooting, whines and fixes.

I'm not saying that it's wrong to have all that, but it would be nice to separate the above from other 2015 F150 topics of discussion.

So? Isn't that precisely what a forum is for? I'd rather read all that stuff then see another thread of someone's new truck that looks exactly like everyone else's...

Wow.
If you want to hear only great things about the new F150 then go watch one of Ford's commercials.
Personally, I come to these forums to read about any problems and/or fixes with these trucks. I'm sure potential buyers are interested in these problems/fixes too. I've seen many potential buyers say they're making a list of things to check on when they pick up their truck.

Forum theads like this have a built in popularity index. Hot topics and issues that many are experiencing float to the top. Items that don't get traction or aren't as interesting to the masses fall off the front page.

Seems about as fair a system as any.

My truck is on order so I've been lurking heavily for a few months. To my eyes, it's been an even mix of show-off threads, discussions on wheels/tires, Initial Quality issues, and mods/aftermarket topics on things like tonneau covers.

All really useful stuff so far, even (especially?) the "issues" threads. Just my 2¢.

Keep it like it is. I enjoy reading some whinging about cup holder size , then finding one in praise..I got my 3.5 Eco Lariat screw loaded on April 1 and the only problem I have is not wanting to get out of the truck. 0 problems like probably 95% other owners.

Granted I've only had truck one day shy of a week and just over 200 miles on it and the only problem I have is not being able to drive it enough lol

Or maybe break things up into problems, general discussion, tech questions, mods, etc, like other car forums. Then we could browse topics we want, instead of having to wade through a sea of paint-b!tching and repeat-posts of problems.

I do like how some people immediately assumed my OP was an attack rather than a suggestion.

My only major problem is that I have 3900 miles already on it after two months of ownership

And I have a Mustang that I drive also... although Mia has only seen about 300 miles since I got my F150 lol

Problem vs no problem seems dim to me. I think adding sub-forums for Engines, Suspension, and electronics would be nice.
