  • Great Replacement F150 2014 - 2014 Ford F-150
    By -

    I owned a 1981 F150 for 36 years. I had 337,000 miles and still going strong. It was the three speed on the column shiftier with an inline six engine. I decided to upgrade to 2014 F150 XL Regular Cab V-8 with 5.0 engine. I bought one with a full size bed (8x 4). This vehicle is outstanding. I travel every day and it provides me with dependability as well as comfort. I get 13 -15 miles per gallon in the city and 20-22 on the highway. It has kept me safe and it has been a work horse so far. I am enjoying the features that my former 1981 F150 didnt have available. I choose this over the current F150 (2015 - 2017) as this has a steel bed. It gives me all the features that make my job easy. It has good acceleration and handles good at higher speeds. I plan to keep this one for a while. My family and friends are in shocked that I would upgrade but are proud of me for getting a great newer truck. The ironic part of this upgrade was that I went to a Chevy Dealer and bought this truck for a great price. I would recommend this model to anyone who wants reliability, dependability, stability and comfort in one vehicle.

    I couldn’t be happier with this pickup! The ride, technology, Bluetooth, have performed flawlessly along with the 6.2L. Ownership accquired new in 2015.

  • Left Toyota for Ford - 2014 Ford F-150
    By -

    We have owned several Toyota trucks/cars for over 25 years and it was time to buy a new truck. On a whim I stopped by a Ford dealership and drove a new F150 Supercrew cab. Impressive! I then went to a Toyota dealer and drove a new Tundra. I wanted the 6.5 foot bed which the Toyota dealer said they could order for me, but the salesman lacked any enthusiasm for going thru that process. The Tundra is a very nice truck, but I liked the interior layout of the F150 better, plus the gas mileage on the Toyota was not as good as the Ford. Yes, gas mileage is important even though gas prices have been comparatively low for well over a year. That will likely change. So, I went back to the Ford dealer, picked out the truck I wanted and drove out of their dealership a happy camper! The V6 twin turbo engine has PLENTY of power and is very quiet. The ride is extremely comfortable and I love the rear camera for backing as I sometimes pull trailers. My wife has a Toyota Highlander and wants to sell it and get an F150! I have had excellent service with Toyota trucks, so Ill have to wait and see if Ford is their equal in build quality, but so far, I love my F150! Have now had my F150 for almost 10 months and have almost 23,000 miles on it and have had absolutely no problems. I periodically tow a 2 axle flatbed trailer loaded with a tractor or a single axle trailer for my Harley and the V6 engine does a great job with no evidence of engine labor, and the backup camera is terrific! Ford advertises this engine (3.5L V6) at 24 MPG highway, and I suppose you could get that, but youd have to drive 50 MPH on flat ground at sea level to achieve achieve 24 MPG. I think all of the manufacturers have a very mysterious way of calculating mileage, so judging mileage by the window sticker is, as they say, "for comparison, as your actual mileage may vary". My only negative comment would be with the air conditioner; I wish it were a bit colder. Vehicle air conditioners were much better when they used Freon R-12, but under the governments false premise that R-12 depletes the ozone layer, were stuck with the vastly inferior R-134. The Ford A/C is probably no worse than any other, however. All that said, I still love my F150! Update: I now have almost 40,000 miles on my F150 and have had no real issues. Now that the engine is broken in, the gas mileage has improved. Every so often I have trouble pairing with my cell phone and it takes over an hour before it finally pairs. Strange. Because I bought the long bed version of my Super Crew cab, it is a bit more difficult to park in marked parking lots, but thats a decision I made based on stuff that I haul, so I accept that. My wife, not so much. Do I still love my F150? Yep!

  • Too much cab room in this XLT plus model - 2014 Ford F-150
    By -

    Ford could shorten the wheel base on this 6.5 ft bed by 12 inches if the interior length was 6 inches shorter and the bed was only 6 foot. I am 6 ft tall and cannot reach the pedals with the seat back as far as it can go! I love this truck except for the lack of interior storage (incredibly small glove box) and because of lousy gas mileage. My Tacoma had better interior storage. The hands free is very easy to use; there is no need for a premium stereo. I go off road through major bumps and ruts on BLM roads to go dirt-biking. I pulled 7,000 pound auto hauler with an Outback on it and got 16.5 MPG over 1400 miles and barely noticed a trailer being pulled. My model has a 3.5 L turbo, which I could not find on the review selections with a 6.5 ft bed. Also, I wish for made a narrower model for off-road, as I do that regularly here in the mountains. Fuel economy on the 3.5 L turbo is really bad unless the truck is on the interstate. Although most of my driving is off road, I average only 12 MPG with 10% small town driving, 50 % country roads and 40% 55 to 65 mph roads. The accelerator is extremely touchy; Rear tires regularly screech even with the traction control. Because of bad fuel economy, I am l looking for a mid-size truck.

    Other manufacturers my have a better transmission, but the reliability and performance out weigh the difference. Still running strong.

  • Great Ride - 2014 Ford F-150

    A buyer will get a lot of pickup for a very reasonable price. I purchased my STX at the end of the 2014 season so it was very well equipped with an excellent purchase price for a new vehicle.

  • Wanna love it - 2014 Ford F-150
    By -

    Leased a 2014 F150 STX supercab in white with sharp rims, I like the look and I do love driving it. Was considering buying it at the end of the lease due to the low miles I have on it but have had some issues which concerns me with the reliability. The first happened around 7K miles. Intermittent noise, sounded likes marbles in a jar. There is apparently an issue with these truckswhere the vacuum line or the solenoid fails (moisture related) and it tries to pull the hub in while the truck is moving basically shredding the gear teeth. Fixed and ran fine until 2 days ago when driving began hearing a grinding hum coming from the front. Was worried driving would cause more damage or the truck would stop running. Had to have a truck with 13K towed. They believe it is a bearing in the front drive train. All I know 2 days without a vehicle, not happy.
