Only 2k on my first F150, I’m coming out of a Tacoma.
No issues so far other than deciding which stuff to get for it first.

See my latest thread, horrible vibrations when switching between 4H and 2H, air leak drivers door (I fixed my self), rear clunk on uneven pavement and low speeds coming from rear end. Other than that is fine. 4wd issue is getting addressed at first oil change this weekend...
Ive owned all Chevys before this, really loved the interior space and value I felt I was getting with F150. I'm not going to rush to quick judgement just yet, but I never had to do anything other than oil changes to my Chevys...just saying..

How did you fix the air leak, I have had my truck for just about a month now and I keep hearing what sounds like an air leak near the top of my driver side door.

But went to autozone and ran another piece of weather stripping above the factory stripping. Click the link and scroll down and look at Eric Edwards posts. This worked perfectly for me!

Don't just look at Ford issues, also look at Ram issues. Most important, who takes better care of you when issues arise.
Where you buy is also important. I bought more local and had a few issues. The first question asked was did I buy it here when I brought it in to the service dept. When I said yes they looked at it right away. I have no doubt if I did not buy it their they would have scheduled it at a later time.

I have always been a Chevy man but this time I'm gogin to either get an F-150 or a Ram 1500. I think in todays hi tech manufacturing world there are no real "dogs" but some have more small issues than others.
On the Ram forum there are many complaints on the engine going from 8 cylinders to 4 at crusing speed.Are ther any real things about the F-150 that bugs you???

1) It shifts to a LOWER gear anytime you go from D to M. automatically does it. I hate it.
2) When put in ECO mode, it resets to normal when it gets shut off and you have to put it back in ECO.
3) Will stay in 6th gear when it can go to 7th and sometimes, even 8th gear.
Have seen it in 6th @ 33mph, cruising. Ill go to manual, and put it in to 8th. RPM go from 2k to 1k.
I think it was a deliberate attempt by Ford to appease the gas & oil giants as you cannot tell me that their engineers did not foresee consumers wanting it to STAY in whichever mode they last selected.
Also the EB's seems to hate 85 & under and especially hate any ethanol mix whatsoever. No ethanol & minimum 87 octane always.
