  Upgrade - 2008 Ford F-150
  By RajunCajun - May 13 - 4:34 pm

  I switched from a 2 door Dodge and love my new Ford FX2. It gets a lot of looks and is fun to drive. The ride is quiet even at highway speeds and much smoother than my Dodge. Like the idea of having a 5.4 flex fuel but dont really have to many flex fuel stations.

  Best truck on the market - 2008 Ford F-150
  By Nor-Cal - May 5 - 6:13 pm

  This is my 2nd F-150 and 3rd Ford overall. I have to say that none of my Fords have ever let me down. I only have 2,500 miles on this truck but has had no issues whatsoever. This truck has all the power I need, as well as all the creature comforts. I also love the styling and gas mileage isnt bad for a 4x4 1/2 ton truck with a 3:73 rear end. I looked at all trucks but the Fords value, reputation, and comfort won me over hands down. I would recommend the F-150 to anyone who wants a tough truck which can tackle any job. Definately not my last F-150!

  Replaced my diesel - 2008 Ford F-150
  By JM - April 26 - 11:41 pm

  Bought this truck to replace my 2008 6.4L diesel,which was nice,but did not fit my current needs as a daily driver. Current truck is KR F-150, fully-optioned. I have been impressed. Runs well, a little short on power, but really smooth and still torquey 5.4L engine. Frame and overall build integrity is very strong. Have tested and/or driven most of the competition and still,to me,Ford has the top overall offering for reliability and "truck performance." Still looks good has stayed fresh in styling. Some minor assembly issues which are being remedied at dealer nothing major here. Not a diesel when towing but a great daily driver. Mileage acceptable at 16.5 combined--better than expected.

  Best truck you can buy - 2008 Ford F-150
  By truck - April 20 - 9:16 pm

  I have tested all the trucks on the market even for au ugly Titan and ugly Tundra. GMC truck is overall good, however, I dont like its small mirror. Dodge 4.7L engine has less gas mileage. HEMI engine has more power. Tundra is interesting. It labels 381 hp. However, its real world hp is simmilar to the 4.6L Ford I am buying. Toyota cheats new buyers that way. I am atruck person who only care real world hp, not hp on the paper. I also care smooth ride that only Ford can give. I care tough frame also.

  Outstanding! - 2008 Ford F-150
  By ETexas1000 - April 17 - 6:17 pm

  I wanted a truck to haul building materials over long distances and looks good while doing it. Thats this truck, and I love it. I added some chrome wheels and accessories, and still kept the pricetag under $26k. Fuel economy is great, I took a 500 mi. trip, and rolled into my destination with 1/8 of a tank of fuel left, and this was with a 1000# load up and down mountainsides! Great truck! Thanks FoMoCo!

  Best truck Ive owned - 2008 Ford F-150
  By Blackknight - April 3 - 12:14 am

  Bought this truck as a demo with 5k miles off the showroom floor. It was cleaner than some brand new cars Ive bought in the last 30 yrs. Already had several accessories installed that added to the trucks great looks. This is my 4th truck (3rd Ford) and the best one yet. Looks, ride, build quality are first rate. Rearview camera with the sonar sensing system is unbelievable. Try it - youll like it!

  Fun Truck - 2008 Ford F-150
  By lupal - March 25 - 11:13 pm

  This is a great looking truck, the best I think. That is the main reason I bought the FX4. The interior is great, has so much room in there I compare it to an SUV. Fuel economy cold be much better, and it is costly to drive these days, but as a owner of a single cab 02 V6 F150, then upgrading to this 5.4 V8, I can see that Ford did get better in its fuel economy, but hey, if you drive such a big truck, you better expect the gas to be high. I have noticed some things that i dont like about it, but all Fords at all dealerships had the problems, one being they roll back on a slope, the other being the steering wheel shakes a bit too much for my liking at speeds of about 70mph.

  Great Truck - 2008 Ford F-150
  By Fred - March 20 - 8:28 pm

  This truck has exceeded my expectations in every catagory. I just took a long trip across PA aorund 65 mph and got just over 20 mpg. This truck only has 1200 miles on it. The mileage should only get better. I plan to add an exhaust and cold-air intake and expect even better mileage. Comfort is excellent for long hauls and it is also really quiet. Ive driven a variety of trucks (Chevy and Dodge) in 11 years of contract work. Nothing else compares. I could not ask for a better truck.

  I thought it would be better - 2008 Ford F-150
  By D. Hamblin - March 17 - 12:14 pm

  Bought the truck new. Have not had any actual "problems". The truck drives just fine. Seems like when you go over a bump the bed "moves" no noise and everything feels tight, but you can see movement. On a windy day I have to fight to get to 70 MPH. Feels liks something is pushing against me. Truck feels underpowered. Has a slight rough isle at stoplights. Dealer says its normal, Ford has "leaned out" the motor at idle for imissions regulations. I wish I had bought the V-8. 4300 miles now. Really wish it had more power. My 1997 S-10 had more power.

  Great Truck - 2008 Ford F-150
  By Greg - March 2 - 10:24 pm

  Wonderful ride. King Ranch leather is sharp. Great ride on the highway. Handles easy in the city. Reverse sensors are a big help.
