  Good machine - 2006 Ford F-150
  By Coloradoguy - January 20 - 3:03 am

  Though I have extremely low mileage on my truck, I have been very pleased with it overall. Suspension is very stiff, but that adds to payload capacity and handling, therefore worth it. The rack and pinion steering does require driving proficiency, so not for everyone (I like it). Mileage is better than average in real world use. Mostly city is about 18 and highway I have gotten 21.5 (in mountains), using 85 octane. The five speed manual is a bit on the stiff side, but feels very stout as one would expect for a truck transmission. CD Stereo has amazing sound quality.

  Dont buy this truck! - 2006 Ford F-150
  By steve - November 22 - 5:30 pm

  I bought this truck new last year. I travel alot for my job, so I need something comfortable and reliable. When I was in Mississippi, I was driving about 30 mph on a back road when it sounded like I hit a roadside bomb. My truck stopped. I got out only to find a huge puddle of coolant, pieces of metal and what I later discovered was transmission fluid. they towed the truck to a Ford dealership in Memphis Tennessee, and found out that my transmission blew up. The force cracked the engine block, broke the suspension, broke the radiator, and cracked the trucks frame! So I was stuck 7 hrs away from home with a totaled truck, trying to find a new car, and I missed my daughters birthday!

  My F-150 - 2006 Ford F-150
  By LUIS - October 14 - 11:09 am

  I used to drive a Silverado and its performance was OK, but its interior design cannot compare with the one from the F-150. Now I can pull more weight as my boat and work requirements demand. Its engine is quiet and powerful, so I recognize that I have to maintain it properly.

  I farm and the truck pulls a double axle trailer easily--quiet--smooth riding. Ive had Ford trucks for thirty years--has been my favorite

  Unload both barrels - 2006 Ford F-150
  By possum - September 23 - 10:37 pm

  The steering is too light. The rack/pinion-power assisted steering is way overboard. Its almost unsafe to a point where I only drive this truck on out of town trips when I have to go. I drive class 8 trucks about 6000 miles a week, with my wife. Neither her or I choose to drive the Ford to work. It just sits in the garage waiting to be sold when it gets about 2 yrs old, so as we wont loose money on todays market. Our main means of transportation is still my old 2000 model Sonoma 4x4 with 74000 miles on it. Our next pick-up will be another Chevy or GMC.

  FX4... BEST 4X4... - 2006 Ford F-150
  By Great - August 16 - 2:43 am

  I was in the market for a new truck for some time. I test drove GMC 1500-AND 2500. I was not impressed. Then I looked into the FX4 crew fully loaded and I have to say it is a blast to drive. With the 20 inch rims the truck sits up high and the interior is great. Solid workmanship and the ride is solid.

  Great F-150 - 2006 Ford F-150
  By gus - August 5 - 9:35 pm

  The design inside and outside is great. The space in the supercrew backseat is great. The only fault is the 4.6 feels underpowered.

  Need some power - look elsewhere! - 2006 Ford F-150
  By Mike Keating - August 3 - 9:35 pm

  I bought my 06 F150 Supercrew 4.6 litre in October of 2006. This was the 1st new truck I had ever owned, man have I been disapointed. Under normal driving conditions I suppose for most the power of the 4.6 litre is adequete. As soon as I hooked my 19 ft boat up to it man whered the power go Ford? With my Chevy I never even knew the boat was back there, not with this motor. If you plan to haul even the smallest camper/boat do not get an F150 with the 4.6 litre, its awful! If you are looking for a pickup that drives like a car, buy it. If you need a truck with some power for work/play dont buy an F150 w/ this motor. Overall as soon as I can financially trade this Ford F150 in its gone!

  Copper Ranch - 2006 Ford F-150
  By MDI - July 10 - 10:47 am

  Great vehicle. Only hiccup was the transmission console shifter had an interior switch that went out. This caused the transmission to go haywire and could not get it into proper gear. This required a tow and was in warranty. Same problem happened on my 2004 FX4, but that one was out of warranty. Sounds like a defective switch. Best ride of any pick-up that Ive riden in. Gas mileage is not great however. The Ethonal blends that I use seem to get much worse gas mileage ... more than offsetting their slightly lower cost per gallon. So E- 85 may not be an option.

  Glad to be rid of this one - 2006 Ford F-150
  By justaguy - June 26 - 3:46 pm

  My F150 spends way to much time in the shop. In one year, less than 17,000 miles, the following items have failed: Steering rack, ABS sensors(2), 4wd locking hub relay, AC/Heat fan. Each failure required two trips to the shop, one to diagnose the problem and order the parts, a second for the actual repair. In addition, I had check engine light problems twice.
