  • Beware - 2004 Ford F-150
    By -

    I traded in a 97 Silverado for this truck. It was a serious mistake. I went from a 5.7L engine to the 5.4L and my mileage was 1/2. The power was much greater in the Silverado, and the ride was outstanding. The F-150 shakes at each stop, even with that big V8, the defrost and a/c seriously effect the engine. The plastic in the interior is cheap, and the seats are uncomfortable. My truck has the tow package, and with pulling a small Boy Scout trailer the trucks performance was greatly effected. My truck only has 63,000 miles on it. Best suggestion, look to another manufacturer for a better truck.

  • Junk Truck - 2004 Ford F-150
    By -

    I have 71,000 miles on my truck and it is falling apart. Have gone through 4 sets of tires. Have had to replace both front rotors and calipers, rear also (the right front exploded on me when I had to hit he brakes hard on the freeway) and Ford wouldnt not warranty them with 21,000 miles on the truck. The 4WD part is terrible off road, it might work in the city but stinks in the real world! Plus the motor wont pull anything, and the transmission has been slipping since 40,000 miles. The dealer says it normal and nothing is wrong.

  • BAD BRAKE ROTORS - 2004 Ford F-150
    By -

    I have 3800 miles on 04 f-150 and my brake rotors are scared so bad Im worried about my wife driving the truck. Ford will not honor their warranty, they said thats normal. So every one check your front rotors. Also the truck idles bad, a/c blows hot air until you reset by turning off & on, and my radio/cd player volume raises & lowers by itself while driving. Whats next?

  • Big time LEMON - 2004 Ford F-150
    By -

    All I want to say is that I upgraded from a 2001 Lariat to an 2004 new style in october and I already had the engine,transmission and some fan clutch replaced. A piece of the plasticy silver AC vents fell of. This was a big mistake for me. Ford lost me as a costomer. I plane on getting a Silverado SS January. STICK W/GM!
