  Small things make a truck - 2008 Ford F-150
  By go99 - May 30 - 3:35 pm

  I have owned my limited 60th edition now for almost a year. I do really enjoy the truck but have a few complaints. First is the "clicking" that comes from the steering column when letting go of the brake. Truck is super quiet and they put in something like this! I would not purchase another truck with this noise. Second is the 60th does not come with the simple windshield wash low warning indicator. Just does not have one. Good truck but I might consider the decision to go 60th again and stick to the regular edition.

  My best Truck 4.6 v8 stx supercrew 4x4 - 2008 Ford F-150
  By chris short - April 2 - 11:22 pm

  I got this truck last august from my father for never getting in trouble with the law. I drive gravel everyday because my driveway is 1 mile straight gravel. The suspension handles very well on the gravel as well as on the road. My rear glass shakes a little when i hit a sharp bump though. I am glad i got the 4.6 because i picked up fuel economy compared to my dads 5.4. It has plenty of power to pull my supercrew 4x4. I have had no problems in my first 9000 miles. I hope it keeps up the only thing im doing is lifting the front end to level and adding dual exaust and maybe a cold air intake.

  Back to Ford Again - 2008 Ford F-150
  By Casper - March 29 - 12:21 pm

  My 2008 F150 Supercrew is a a joy to drive. I owned a 2006 Infiniti G35 and to be honest with you I am glad to have my F150. The seats are excellent and the cabin layout. Would not buy any other truck but a Ford. The Ford looks better than any other truck on the market.

  Most Reliable 1/2 ton V8 out there - 2008 Ford F-150
  By Reginhild - March 2 - 3:07 am

  Very pleased with my F-150 FX4 Crew Cab. The dealer was great to work with and provided a great deal in addition to Fords great rebates. I picked the F-150 in part because Consumer Reports rates the F-150 with V8 engine as number one of all the 1/2 ton trucks with V8 for reliability. (with the V6, Toyota edges out Ford for number 1 and Ford number 2)

  Built Ford Tough - 2008 Ford F-150
  By Lee L. - February 25 - 7:50 pm

  Ive owned Dodge trucks all my life. Theyve been great but I wanted a change. I looked at Dodge, Ford and Chevy. Im glad I chose the Ford. I pull an 8000lb. trailer and it handles it surprisingly well for a 1/2 ton truck. The Dodge and Chevy definitely have more "get up" but the Ford pulls very well. Interior is definitely plush and the exterior is very sharp, especially with the 20" wheels and two-tone paint. Im very happy with the truck.

  Ford owner-cars and trucks - 2008 Ford F-150
  By Stoney - February 21 - 11:52 am

  My family and sons only use Fords and that goes back more than 40 years. The F150 seems to ride better and gets better gas mileage than the posted numbers. Could be the light foot to get more miles per gallon and no major repairs I recall.

  New but liking it - 2008 Ford F-150
  By dunc - February 7 - 7:25 am

  Still new but I like the look and feel of this truck. Towed the snowmobiles and hauled them fine. Doesnt have the get up and go like my old Titan, but the Titan was proving to be a repair nightmare and seemed like something was always wrong with it.

  Pleasantly surprised - 2008 Ford F-150
  By TXRUNFX4 - February 2 - 10:27 am

  After having exceptional luck with my first F150 (98 4x4 that is still going strong), as well as after test driving a Tundra, Silverado, and Dodge, I decided to get another F150. I went with a fully loaded, every option (minus sunroof) 08 FX4 as I didnt see enough difference in 09 to warrant the extra $ for the 09. Ive read some reviews about poor power, and Ive always felt the F150 lacked the "get up and go" of the Chevy, but Ive been very surprised that this truck has loads of power and very nice throttle response. The interior (black leather) is really nice and the truck is super quiet. Very comfortable, great power, very solid! Other trucks were nice, but Im glad I got the FX4.
