Anybody out there Own a 2010 Raptor with the 6.2? Maybe a very late build 2010? All the Ford literature I have read says this engine is new for 2011.

Here's a write-up on a 2010 6.2 Raptor.

This is some info from the Ford site.

The only "major" issue is the EPS. I have had two steering racks replaced on my '11 XLT truck has 16000 miles on it now. Other than that I very happy with it.

I couldn't help but notice another member on here who just had steering problems with his truck. Has Ford issued any TSB's on any of these issues?

Well I won't be keeping the factory grill looking too stock for a while so o big loss there.

2010 SCrew 4.6 3v, 23,000 miles and it's been great. Really good on gas too. I have the 3:55's.

2014 goes on a diet. Possibly aluminum fenders and doors. We now have just the aluminum hood. F150 slated to lose 700 pounds by 2019.

2011's will not fare as well regarding fewer repairs, compared to earlier (and later) years. NEW engines, NEW electrical system, NEW Electronic steering (rack too), NEW modifications on 6 speed clutches.

BUT.................I'll bet they (2011 Ford F150) are still more reliable than most brands. They didn't sell 515,000 trucks this past year on pretty commercials alone.
