  • Why rated so negative? - 2015 Ford F-150
    By -

    I just got my truck and I am getting 17mpg in town and can hit 28mpg on flat freeway. It is doing everything I had hoped for. I cannot believe how strong the little V6 is. I think most people will opt for it after trying it out.

  • Overall great truck, some not-so-great points.. - 2015 Ford F-150
    By -

    Just to be clear - I think it is a great truck - XLT supercrew with 5.0 2wd, 6.5 bed. Maybe i would not notice some things but I am coming out of a 2013 that is pretty much exactly the same truck configuration. Ride is rougher, air conditioning seems a little less efficient - The vent arrangement seems a little less controllable as to direction and circulation. Fuel economy - contrary to reports, seems to be averaging right on 15 MPG calculated and on the trip computer, where as the previous truck was averaging 16.7 in the same driving conditions. Side mirrors seem to be a little smaller horizontally.

  • Dont buy the hype - 2015 Ford F-150
    By -

    Nice truck, no doubt there, interior among the best out there. Mine has been back to the dealer for several annoying faults, and a major issue with stalling out. Also not fond of the overly harsh ride and interior rattles. Ecobust performs OK, but theres no eco to be found. Im getting a steady 14mpg mixed highway/city.

  • Fun to drive but very bumpy ride - 2015 Ford F-150
    By -

    Fun to drive. From the onboard computer, I get 13 L/100Km (18 mpg) on the highway, 15 L/100Km (15.6 mpg) in the city.

  • 2015 F150 3.5 ecoboost broken within three months - 2015 Ford F-150
    By -

    I bought a new truck for reliability and to avoid break downs and service department down time. Everything is breaking in this truck. Not a good idea to buy one. Too expensive and problematic. Fuel economy is not that great. Its the same as other pick up trucks, but with more power.

  • owesome truck! others just cant beat it! - 2015 Ford F-150
    By -

    i just got platinum on last month and ran 500iles. the style is absolutely gorgeous and people looked at it or turn around their neck easily. may be because its new model. the review said that it may a bit lighter when empty bed, but it isnt. it felt much stabled when i cornered aggresively. it is a most quietest truck ever i drove and driving comfort is just owesome. i owned 2008 chevy and am so glad to switch with this. only thing that i dont understand is why the ford wasnt inspire this f-150 distinctive looks to brand new navigator. if they apply this f-150 looks to navigator, i will buy that one.

  • 2015 f150 Platinum 3.5L, disappointed... - 2015 Ford F-150
    By -

    Owned the 2015 f150 Platinum 3.5L Ecoboost for 9 months/14,000 miles, 3/2016 sold 11/2016. Being 65" could never get comfortable compared to the previous 10 f150s and 2 f250s owned. Lane departure stopped working 2 months into ownership, front rotors have gouges, right side of windshield had a waviness blemish between plys, engine developed an oil seep, seat backs are thin, you can feel all of the controls, wires etc. for the massaging seats in the back and they squeak. Cooled seats stink, heat works well. Drivers seat leather starting to fade and all seats are so slick that all contents end up on floor under moderate braking. AND the aluminum body, forget it, it actually looks like it has dents/ripples all over IMO, creases around door handles, poor fit and finish and the hood actually bounces going down the road due to min stiffeners. Using adaptive cruise control on the highway, around corners, can be tricky if there is slower traffic in the lane next to you, the FLIR sees the traffic as being in your lane and clamps on the brakes, not a warm and fuzzy feeling. Ride is horrible over rough roads and the back end is so light it feels dangerous but man is she quiet inside if the sun roof rails arent squeaking (requires several opens and closes to "reset" it. When standing in the bed you can hear it bend, moan and groan, I am only 215 lbs. MY BAD for dropping 49k on the POS! live and learn. Traded it in for a 2013 f150 5.0. LOVE the 2013... LEDs are way cool though, thats about it... I am in aviation and pay extreme attention to detail and baby all of my vehicles. Again, Im a Ford guy for life and thought "stepping up" to the Platinum I would be ecstatic, boy was I wrong.

  • Lemonade - 2015 Ford F-150
    By -

    A brief summary: a great looking truck with a lot of technology (that sadly doesnt work) Almost fully loaded Lariat. Performance: Acceleration and braking are average; acceleration being modest except when put into Sport mode. Road holding and steering are quite good for a truck. Shifting is sometimes abrupt and not always intuitive (has failed to shift multiple times) Comfort: Road noise reduction is excellent (3.5L Twin Turbo is quiet and tires are exceptionally quiet). Aside from that, seat comfort is average, though not suitable for long drives. Interior: Lots of room for movement. Lots of storage everywhere. The rear cab is obscenely large, much to the joy of passengers. The logic of controls is poor; there are duplicates of buttons, some of which also have soft keys on the display. There is also no need for 6 buttons to operate the cruise control. Safety Features: Incredibly bright headlights (LEDs), the blind spot monitoring system works very well, and the truck itself does not have terrible blind spots. The traction is sub-par in weather (snow/ice/rain) and gets squirrelly easily (even with 4WD/AWD) Tech: All seems about average. The voice commands load quickly, only minor issues are with the entertainment center; radio occasionally cuts out and the sub-woofer audio package is incredibly underwhelming, along with trouble connecting to devices. All sections of Reliability were given a 1 star, as nothing has been reliable. I have spent more time than I would care to admit driving a loaner Focus, and found that to be incredibly reliable. Repair frequency has been more the 2x a month. Dealership support has been decent, though most issues are unable to be resolved or the dealer simply resets the computer (which does not solve anything other than clearing codes). Engine is incredibly unreliable. It stalls, it doesnt start (often) and it lies about its fuel mileage. Transmission can shift worse than I did when I was learning to drive a Semi. Technicians have said the transmission "learns," but I would say it is "learning" the wrong way (getting worse). Electronics have literally shut off while the engine was running. This included power breaks and steering. Ford said it was nothing to be concerned about. Currently has spent 53 days in repair since purchase for anything from minor defects (radio cutting out, AC on seat getting hot and melting, etc) to completely unacceptable defects (engine stalls/dies while driving or idle-ing, ALL electronics TURN OFF while truck is on, etc). Obviously a lemon, but not according to Ford, which has been very un-helpful concerning their responsibility to consumers, State and Federal laws (yes, lawyers are involved). All in all, 1/10 never buying a Ford again. (1 is for looks)

  • 2015 xlt 2.7 ecoboost . Crewcab 4x4 - 2015 Ford F-150
    By -

    I have a 2.7 ecoboost crew can 4x4 xlt with the 302a package. Everything you need and want. I am currently getting 22.8 high way, the truck really has balls, its very quiet , handles pretty decent , better the. The 2011 that I previously had, not too cray about the auto start auto stop .truck is awesome, good on gas, fast, luxurious. Not sure about some of these negative ratings, must be some Chevy owners bashing the #1 selling truck in America , and theres a reason its number 1. Love the truck.

  • Still the best! - 2015 Ford F-150
    By -

    I have owned three F150s and my 2015 is the best. After 22 thousand miles in all kinds of conditions my truck has not disappointed me. Not once. The handling, comfort, and fuel economy remain excellent. I will repeat what I said in my first review. Ford simply knows how to build pickups. I doubt I will ever drive anything other than a Ford F-150 unless it is a F-250.
