  Transmission - 2003 Ford F-150
  By Transmission - November 13 - 11:12 pm

  This is my 1st time buying an American vehicle and this truck has been only problems since I bought it. (new) I took it in to SVC dept. because it kept loosing power and shutting down and it turned out to be a wiring shortage after spending a whole month in the SVC dept. and changing different parts in it. Now at 51000 the transmission has gone out on it. Besides all the problems my truck ran smooth and I love the space in it but I will not buy another Ford again!

  I love this truck - 2001 Ford F-150
  By hot_temprd - November 13 - 12:06 pm

  I purchased my Lightning about a month ago, trading in my 03 Mustang GT. Needless to say I love this truck. It hauls all necessary cargo and really moves. The poor little import guys around town have no idea what to do when I pull up next to them at a redlight or when I close a 5 or 6 car length gap when the fly past me like Im standing still. My only gripe is the fuel mileage with the price of premium well above 3 dollars a gallon. Other than that, its a great ride. It hugs the curves just as well as it handles the straights. Overall, Ford has a winner with this truck and they need to build a 3rd Gen ASAP.

  By DK - November 12 - 2:00 am

  I have had the truck only 6 mo. But it has been perfect. I average around 18.5 mpg on the highway and 17 in the city.

  By Truck lover - November 12 - 2:00 am

  for a six this F150 has pretty decent performance for my needs and the fuel economy has been acceptable too. Its been reliable and easy to handle in city traffic. Id recommend it for anyone who needs a light duty truck.

  Great 4x4 - 1998 Ford F-150
  By tommy - November 11 - 7:52 pm

  I bought this truck on 1/2002 with 41K miles now 11/07 it has 71K. It has been an awesome 4x4. Repairs have been an alternator replacement, 2 rear axel seals and some O2 sensors plus normal maintenace. Just took a 3k mile road trip and fuel on the 4.6L v-8 w/w automatic trans ranged from 16-20 mpg at nominal 70 mph interstate driving. Ride is very plush compared to my old 89 F250 4x4. Mine also has the off road package w/w limited slip rear axel which is a great option on off road applications. I replaced the OEM battery this year after 9 yrs! The 4.6 liter V8 is more than enough power for my driving

  Truck from Hell - 2001 Ford F-150
  By Distraught and Angry Ford Owner - November 9 - 5:31 am

  This truck model is very unreliable. I am replacing something constantly, the truck manages to leak oil, water, even dot 3 fluid for the transmission. I think the check engine light being on constantly comes standard from the factory. The people responsible for designing and producing this truck in 2001 can be thanked for the incredible rise in Toyota, and other foreign truck sales in the US since its introduction into the market due to such notorious unreliability.

  01 Lightning - 2004 Ford F-150
  By jtk - November 8 - 2:00 am

  Great truck except brakes. I drive hard and have been through many brake components. Rotor warpage has been a problem. The engine and entire drive train is great. I just replaced my 01 with an 03.

  The truck of all trucks! - 2005 Ford F-150
  By Big Nail - November 7 - 7:13 pm

  I traded in my 1999 F250 gasser for this truck and never looked back. This truck is perfect for me inside and out. I love the red exterior with the black interior (Im a Georgia fan, GO DAWGS!).

  Were pleased in Clifton, Virginia! - 2005 Ford F-150
  By Dave and Ann - November 7 - 1:23 am

  Our 2005 Lariat is a well built luxury full size pick up without the Lincoln LT price. We note excellent workmanship with no rattles, loose trim, or mechanical problems after 4,000 miles. We receive lots of positive comments from friends, neighbors, and strangers. The 2005 has improved safety and structural integrity over our two previous F-150s a 1997 and a 2001. The 2005 has more power for towing than our previous 2001 5.4. The 2005 has excellent driveability and is very comfortable on long trips. You are only reminded that you are driving a full size truck when you stop to fill the gas tank (14-19mpg range), but with the need to occasionally pull a horse trailer there is no better option!
