  Love the truck, But shes thirsty. - 2005 Ford F-150

  I have had nothing but fun driving the truck. Is hard on gas. But it might be the sound of the exhaust and the cold air intake you want to hear.

  Good 2wd pickup - 2005 Ford F-150
  By tpiatt150 - April 30 - 1:38 am

  I purchased this truck new and have been very impressed.Its no speed machine nor a powerhouse but does very well for being a 1/2 ton truck. This truck with the 5 speed is very peppy for having a 4.2 liter engine. It has also performed just fine while towing other cars and pulling loaded trailers. On average I get about 22 MPG on the interstate and could not be any happier with it.

  King Ranch Rules - 2005 Ford F-150
  By Seniorchief Ret. - April 27 - 10:00 am

  The ride and handling are like driving are great. This 4X4 rides more like a luxury auto than a truck. I have only owned it for a short period but will really get to test it this fall when I go hunting.

  Great truck at a great price! - 2005 Ford F-150
  By Jamison Turner - April 18 - 5:26 pm

  I have been completely satisfied with this vehicle from the day I bought it. It is a great designed vehicle that drives unlike what you would think something this big would handle like. It is extremely roomy and will hold five to six adults without a problem.

  05 STX 4X4 Apple Inside - 2005 Ford F-150
  By I-Gotta-Mac-Truck - March 19 - 5:11 pm

  Quiet, smooth ride, safe, reliable. As always, it is a Ford truck after all. This is why they are #1. The 4.6L in the 4x4 is not a speed demon, itll get there though. It is a great pulling truck, can handle heavy loads with ease. Last but not least you gotta admit, it is a pretty truck!

  Fun, Sturdy, Safe truck - 2005 Ford F-150
  By Michelle - March 10 - 4:40 pm

  I got my F150 in December and last month I got into a bad accident where my truck was totalled. The truck flipped onto its side and skidded down the road for a bit, but i was not injured at all. I walked away from the accident with one little scratch. Even though my F150 flipped, I got another one because i feel very safe in my truck. If i had not been in my F150 who knows what would have happened. I probably would not have walked away. Thank you Ford for building such a sturdy and safe truck that is fun to drive and enjoyable to look at!

  Love this truck - 2005 Ford F-150
  By Mercedes Owner - December 26 - 3:23 pm

  This is the first American vehicle I have bought since US vehicle quality went down the tubes in the early 80s. I drive my truck on road and off, highway and local, through extremely bad weather (hurricanes) and I have not had a single problem with this truck. Ive hauled lumber in the bed, and pulled single axle trailers with this truck, and it has been great. The sunroof and 6 CD changer has been great, the heated seats are fantastic, and the AC works fine in our 100+ degree summers here. Ford just sent me a letter extending the coverage on the fuel injectors for 10 years....but I have not had any problems. I use premium gas and get oil and tires serviced on time. This is a great truck

  2005 F150 Lariat Supercrew 2WD - 2005 Ford F-150
  By Shaun - December 15 - 3:19 pm

  Overall this is a great truck! Its nice to drive a big truck and have all the luxury options to go with it. I can haul almost anything and everything, and still enjoy all of its interior features. The ride is smooth and quiet. The exterior looks sporty and there are many upgrades and accessories that you can to the style of your choosing.

  Nice Truck - 2005 Ford F-150
  By fordtrkman - December 13 - 8:33 am

  I have the xl v-6 with the work truck pkg. Very nice truck to be basic.It gets better gas milage than my 96 Explorer Sport w/v-6 and 5-speed. I am very impressed with the smooth ride and handleing. The xtra room behind the seats is great. After driving this truck I dont think I could ever drive the other regular cabs.The truck looks good, and because its an XL its easy to keep the interior clean. No carpet to get stained.
