    Nice in many ways, comfort, style and performance. Very good build quality and paint is smooth. I have the 5.4 liter and there was no selection on this review menu for my configuration. I am getting 16-17 miles on the hwy.

  • Needs More ...Still - 2004 Ford F-150
    By -

    After owning a GM for the past 3 years, this truck does not handle as well. It may be the hieght of the truck or it may be the chassis/suspension. All I know is I cannot corner as well as my old truck. Power wise, even though I have the 5.4L, it just doesnt seem to have the response I am looking for. I seem to be pushing the accelerator more than I am used to. I hope with more break in miles, this will improve.

  • Short on POWER & POOR mileage - 2004 Ford F-150
    By -

    Unit came low in transmission fluid! It has rough shifting up& down! Air is not functioning properly! It starts blowing hot air set on 70 without having cooled unit! If I lower thermostat it cools again for a while! Mileage on road 14.2 @ 70! Has no power! My 97 4.6 was better performing! Owning FORD STOCK, I am very concerned! It could just be "THE ONLY LEMON"! I have been to ford shop & after having it 6 days it was as delivered! NOT FIXED!

  • F-150 FX4 Reg. Cab 6.5 SB - 2004 Ford F-150
    By -

    This truck is very reliable, and very powerful for its size. With the 5.4 Liter V8, towing and off-road capabilities are almost limitless. However, I have encountered shifting problems with the automatic transmission very early on. The interior isnt very comfortable for long trips. The interior build is questionable as well; lots of plastic parts that can break very easily. I am very hard on my vehicles, and change almost every 5 years, and this truck has held up better within the first year of ownership than any other Ford vehicle Ive driven. Overall, it is a reliable vehicle and very fun to drive.

  • Poor Quality - 2004 Ford F-150
    By -

    Quality not there. Had all four wheels replaced. Drivers window replaced. Steering wheel not aligned.Still have vibration in steering column. Windshield reflections drive me nuts, or is the winshield wavy? Should of gotten a GMC. Brakes squeal. Should have known better than to buy a first year truck.

  • Rough idle - 2004 Ford F-150
    By -

    This is a great truck but the 5.4 has a rough idle. This problem is noted in special service massage, 18116 Setember1, 2004 (Fords OASIS) but no fix as yet. We hope for the fix soon.

  • great truck - 2004 Ford F-150
    By -

    I love the way this truck handles and the power, but the front bumpers seem to be too fragile.

  • f150 - 2004 Ford F-150
    By -

    I have had this truck for approximately a month. I drove it from Georgia to Wyoming right after I bought it. It rides exceptionally well. Much better than some I have owned. No wind noise.
