Default Well Done Ford!

What a fantastic truck!
I just came back from a 1500km trip with the Lariat. I can't say enough about the comfortable seats and ride, the 2.7 was flawless! It delivered 10.4L/100km efficiency. Thats 27+miles/Imperiel Gallon!!!
I also had occasion to test the collision avoidance after traffic abruptly halted at 100km/hr. My foot was going on the brake as the truck was already applying the brakes to avoid a rear-ender. All safe and sound!.
I've owned 16 F150's and this is hands down the best I've ever had.
The wait and the delays are forgotten!

I will agree with you on the comfort and ride. This truck is much tighter quieter than my 2018. First time Lariat owner
and still figuring out all the technology this truck offers. It's a pleasure to drive.

And for anyone needing the yanky conversion, that should be about 21.6 MPG.

Tracks with my Lariat PB SC 4x4 economy, in Imperial.

Blame the ******* across the pond for sinking our copy of Le Grande K, back in 1793. Reason enough to take the Monarch off of currency.

That's great to hear! I agree, this truck is an easy highway cruiser. Between the intelligent adaptive cruise and quiet cabin, it makes long trips even with two young kids far less stressful. Our longest one way drive so far was a little over 5 hours, but it was a fairly easy one thanks to the truck.

Also nice to see 2.7L Lariat owners, still my favorite engine overall, that engine can do anything and is built like a diesel. I think in ten more years when the earliest 2.7L trucks are on average over 200k miles and still going, it will be seen as an even more incredible engine than it's already considered.

Because 1 out of a 100 might not be? People come here to complain waaaay more often than to post a feel good thread like this one.

Rather refreshing. Thanks for posting OP. Nice truck!!

we're on the same page here...just like reviews of anything, not very often an un-prompted person goes to leave a positive one

I often omit reading the one and five star ratings. The 5 stars are often about got it, looks great, fast delivery but haven’t used it yet… and the one star are often about a broken this or that from shipping or late arriving. The ones in the middle are typically from people who have had the product for a decent amount of time and more of a review of the product use /quality. Here I often wonder why people come to complain or find comfort in others having the same problem, before considering talking to the dealer. Yes yes, I KNOW, there are many exceptions to all the above, just my personal preference and observations.
