  Excellent for towing and just hard work. The truck is a very attractive unit.

  I hope nothing brakes. - 2005 Ford F-150

  i know semi-metallic pads are to wear differently, but i have had this truck for almost 3 months and the rotors are looking like wash boards already. those things should still be glass smooth. the dealer says "its normal" but i know better. i cannot prove them wrong, but i know im right. other than that, i love this thing. i have never felt a tighter ford truck than this one.

  And I thought my Tundra was good........ - 2005 Ford F-150
  By TJ Vollman - May 2 - 2:10 am

  I bought my "baby" after having a terrible accident with my Tundra (it was totaled). I swore I would never buy anything but a Tundra (it saved my life) but then I saw the new F150 and it was LOVE at first site. WHAT A MACHINE ! Towing my 24 foot SeaRay became a walk in the park. Built like a tank....rides like a Benz....Im a Ford Man now and Im never looking back.

  F150 King Ranch 05 - 2005 Ford F-150

  The ability of this vehicle to please me was easy. I traded a 95 XLT 5.8L. The engine was slightly weaker with the 5.4 but all in all performs well.

  Looks & Value Rocks! - 2005 Ford F-150
  By Mike P - December 15 - 9:43 am

  For value where else can you get a V8, 4WD, auto, cruise, 6 CD changer, manual windows, locks and rubber floor for less than $23K? The 3" factory lift and 17" wheel package completes the look. Although an STX semi base model, this truck has everything I need and almost nothing I dont. An XLT for $10 grand more does not compute.

  Ive bought several new vehicles over the years. This truck is by far the best vehicle ever. I and my family love it. Its so comfortable to ride in that my wife falls asleep every time we go somewhere. We love our F150 SuperCab.

  1 month review - 2005 Ford F-150
  By mharrye - October 26 - 5:23 am

  Although I average 1,500 miles per month, I have put 4,000 miles on this one in the first month because it is fun to drive. Quiet interior and excellent handling have been pleasant surprises - I have never before driven trucks that came close. My other vehicle is a BMW 3 Series so my fun to drive comparison is not against something shabby. The only real reason I now find for using the Bimmer is fuel economy. Sure the F-150 cannot compare with the BMW on acceleration, but I cant say the truck is a real dog, something I had expected from reading reviews. Instead my problem is trying to keep it reined in. High speeds come quickly and unexpectedly due to the quiet and the ride.

  2004 FX4 Great Vehicle - 2005 Ford F-150
  By Matt Vinzant - June 11 - 2:06 pm

  This is a very dependable truck, i love to drive it, and I love the way it looks. It has great handling, and ride quality. It tows a trailer like there is nothing behind it.
