Default Things I already miss from my 13

Sirius radio reception sucks.
501A halogens sucks.
Cup holders aren't great.
Steering doesn't seem as good BUT it could be because I'm coming from a 145" 2wd to a 157" 4x4.
Thats all I've noticed so far @ 92.8 miles on dash

Sounds pretty bad. Why did you buy it?

Did you not look at it and test drive it before signing anything?

Less than 100 miles on a new, expensive truck and you're already on here complaining about how bad it is.

Strange...

I have a New 2015 Platinum. Came from a 2014 Lariat.
The Steering on the 2015-2016 are very tight like a Mustang G.T.
I could tell the difference right away. Less forgiving.
Cup holders are subjective.
Sirius Radio works Great for me. Unless in a Car Wash or Canyons.
Can't comment on the Head Lights. Mine were H.I.D. & now L.E.D.
The only 2 wheel drive I ever drove was at work eleven years ago.

If you get real unhappy with your purchase maybe someone near you could do a trade & get another 2013?
Good Luck & enjoy the Ride.

The 4wd and long bed will make up for Ford's flaws. This forum is filled with cup holder and 16 sync 3 XM reception, along with plenty of other complaints. I was just stating the issues I've accounted so far.

I guess that I have to disagree with you. I went from a 13 Lariat 4 wheel drive to a 16 Lariat FX4 and other that the lack of cooling of the seats on my 13 I am very happy with mine. Also my 13 Lariat had HID lights and now my 16 has LED lights and I like the LED over the HID lights. Just my opinion.

I came from a 13 to a 16 and here are the things i dont like about the 16.
Glove compartment looks to be cheaply made, its wobbly.
The bottom cup holder doesnt slide in an out (I had the front bench seat). The seat cloth material is harder. Dont like to cup holders i perfer the 13's ones. The 16 f'en blutooth still disconnectes. The tail gate is bulky. The location of the door looks.

Things i dont miss about the 13.
Stupid ouside window molding, ford cant seem to pick or produce a quality outer window material. The f'en dead battery crap(god i hope i dont that issue withe this 16). The AC sucked on th 13's. The f'en blutooth disconnecting all the time.

This i like better on the 16.
The AC seems to work bettet.
Truck seems more responsive when i hit the gas. The steering l feels better. The outer window material seems better. The flush outside back window. The outside door handles.

These are things i find a little annoying but of course you cant find the perfect truck.
