  not bad but could do better - 2001 Ford F-150
  By motogirl - March 16 - 4:09 pm

  I bought this truck to haul the bikes, camping and some off roading (after owning a Jeep Wrangler a truck cant off road) I was looking for a Tacoma or Titan, my friends dad owned a lot and got me a great deal on this F150. i havent had to major of issues but every time i give it a good wash a spark plug blows, then every time i get the front brakes done a bolt backs out when Im in motion thank god its a quick catch and nothing bad has truly happened while i have been driving. the gas mileage is ridiculously horrible Im lucky to get 10 miles to the gallon. The stereo volume will go up when you turn it down and down when you turn it up.

  Not the best Ive driven - 2001 Ford F-150
  By blueroom - December 26 - 10:00 am

  Truck was great for first 15,000 miles - now I am considering trading it in since I am not convinced that mechanical problems from 15K-26Kmiles are solved. Prefer to take chances with another car/truck/SUV before the warranty expires. Probably will never buy a Ford Truck again.

  SuperCrew Lariat - 2001 Ford F-150
  By fastlane - November 10 - 8:13 pm

  Bought this truck used and loaded with every option except power sliding rear window. Quality seems pretty good with the exception of the COP system. I have replaced every coil on the truck and it keeps burning them out. $400 repair at the dealer minimum and this was for 1 coil. Truck has 8. All in all I have been fairly happy with the truck but I wish I would have waited until I found a Dodge Ram Quad Cab with similar options.

  Lacking - 2001 Ford F-150
  By billco - August 7 - 10:00 am

  If all you are interested in is high performance, I guess this is fine. Special oil, air filter only sold by ford and has to be ordered. Paint quality is terrible, and what is that 1 inch gap on either side of the dash about? Also the brakes are lousy.

  Seats on 2001 F-150 XLT Extended Cab - 2001 Ford F-150
  By Birdie - July 3 - 1:06 pm

  Since I purchased my 2001 Ford F-150 XLT Extended Cab, I have been totally dissatisfied with the comfort of the cloth captain seats and low position of floor console.

  More time in shop than on road - 2001 Ford F-150
  By Ruthy - October 4 - 2:00 am

  We have owned this vehicle for 3 months now and have had to take it in for repair six times. Seems like it has been in the shop more than we have driven it. I dont feel it is reliable at all! Hope to get it off our hands ASAP!

  My first (and last) Ford - 2001 Ford F-150
  By mgrnpd - October 27 - 2:00 am

  We bought this mainly as a family vacation vehicle. Plenty of back seat room for the kids, plenty of luggage room in the bed (with a cap), and can still tow the boat. The problem is it stranded us for a couple days on our first long vacation (Ford was no help at all) and broke down right before leaving on another long vacation. Now several unidentafiable rattles have begun. Id like to get rid of it for a more reliable vehicle, but the incentives on the new ones have really killed the resale value of mine. I thought I was buying one of the most reliable trucks to keep for a long time and now Im looking for a way out.
