Just replaced my positive trerminal on a 2010 F150. Local dealer said I needed a new terminal harness $ 250 and to install was $275. Went to another Ford dealership and picked up the Edge battery terminal replacement (BT4Z-14450-AA) clamping the wires was a chore but I just kept using bigger Vise Grips until it was secured.

I used a bolt cutter for the final crimp. As you discovered, that lug is hardened steel.
