I'm looking for my first vehicle and I'm torn between an f150 or a jeep wrangler. I love both and I wanna know why you guys like your f150s and how they are offroad, I know they don't compare to a jeep but I don't do and heavy off-roading. So maybe you guys can help me in my decision.

Honestly ... I love everything about my F150. Keep in mind that NOTHING exists that is perfect, and yes, there are some little things I would have done differently if I were the one designing the truck. But by and large, I absolutely love my truck from top to bottom.

Couldn't have said it any better.

As for offroading... all I do is have fun in a huge open sand/mud field so I'm not much help.

that's all I would be doing too haha and some light trails

pretty much everything about my good one.

lots of people mud F-150s, take them down trails, etc. I don't go any worse than solid fields and dirt roads, if I do I take my quad. jeeps are cool but they're not worth the room of the truck, nor the hauling capability.

Being retired I use mine for everyday use and for picking up material for project's usually from the lumber yard. Great for pulling boat's or my utility trailer too. Living out in the country we have to go through wet pastures or muddy cane fields every now and then plus riding on the beach. The 4x4 system work's fine and never had to get pulled out. Long trip's are a pleasure in these Supercrews and I usually average over 18 mpg so that's not too bad. Having a bed cover help's to keep thing's dry also!

Jeeps are cool and are fun to own. F150s make better everyday vehicles with more capabilities than a jeep. If you do a lot of driving, go with the truck. Only way I'd own a jeep is if I drove less than 30 miles a day. Ride is to rough for me.

Yeah I went to look at a jeep yestersay, I don't know if it would be a good daily driver, my uncle may be able to give me a 2012 ecoboost supercrew fully loaded with a lot of miles though since it is one of his company cars.

Being retired, in the country, with a lane up to my house that needs 4 wheel drive in the winter, it is the perfect vehicle for me.

I do a lot of traveling, drove from Ohio to Alaska, far south Texas, Washington State, and a 300 mile round trip nearly every week to visit grandkids. My Ecoboost on long trips gets over 20 mpg. With a cap on the back, you can haul all the luggage you need. I think it rides better then my Buick LeSabre.

I have towed a bulldozer on a trailer and didn't even know it was back there. Super power if you need it and decent mileage if you are light on the gas pedal.

I put 25 to 35 thousand miles a year on my 4 F-150's I have had since my first one I bought in 2008. Had absolutely no trouble with them.
