Default New to Me 19 Lariat

I recently purchased a 2019 F150 Lariat with the max tow packages and more bells and whistles then I’ve ever seen on a vehicle. This truck has the V6 3.5L EcoBoost engine.

Are there any issues I should keep an eye out for? Any weak points I should address before they go bad? All input is welcome and thanks in advance.

Depends on the color. Birds will crap on blues and black more so than white. Or maybe I just don't see it as well.
Bout all the help I can give you. Best of luck with new truck.

Make sure it’s had the cam-phaser update! Check with your nearest dealer! Enjoy sounds like a NICE truck! If you can afford the gas, drive the heck out of it!

Congrats on the new truck, and it sounds well equipped.

I would stop by your local dealer and ask for a printout of the window sticker and all warranty work and recalls that have been performed.

If the cam phasers were not already replaced, they likely will need to be sometime in the future. But you should still be under warranty by the time it is needed. After that, my engine is very quiet and runs perfect.

Why is his used vehicle under warranty?

Powertrain warranty is 5 year / 60k miles? This is not for the original owner only.

I suppose as a 2019 a highway commuter could have over 60k miles so that is worth confirming.

Congrats on your new truck. Be careful towing, even tho it has maxtow, you likely will max out payload first. That is printed on a yellow sticker in drivers door. Enjoy the truck, my 2020, 26k miles, never an issue.

Just because it's used doesn't mean it's not under warranty still.

Congratulations! I bought my ‘17 Lariat when it was two years old and still love it. As others have said, be on the lookout for cam phasers, covered under the 5 year/60k powertrain warranty

Thanks for all the responses. I checked with my local Ford dealer and they said all recalls were taken care of.

I put the 78,000th mile on it this morning!
