2001 Ford F-150 consumer reviews

Weak aluminum heads that pop the plugs out stripped head threads as the result. This puts a large amount of money to be put on the owner they don’t know about when purchasing it.

Bought-2001 F-150 King Ranch Crew Cab, 5.4, 4x4, 4 seat Sport interior, with every option available that year. Today, has 317,632 miles and never worked on exept for normal maintenance items, and runs perfect, getting around 14 mpg. Pull my boat, 9 tons from Fla, to NC including it's 310 gallons of fuel at 52 mph the whole trip. Do I love this truck? You better believe it, not another truck anywhere could preform like this, and it had, 270,000 miles on it when I bought it!!!!

The truck is a rust magnet and every truck made at same time that i see has exact same spots rusted my running boards are completely gone and i live ford trucks and vehicles only brand I’ve owned my 1990 ranger had zero rust on it and was older so if buy 99 to 03 f150 check for rusty frame

The 2001 SVT Build # 4341 Ford Lightning are still amazing looking trucks and a blast to drive. Can't be disappointed with Lightning they will always leave you smiling and always fun to just drive. Mines highly modified 752hp and there Value just keeps jumping up.

This bar none is the best truck I ever owned when I got it new in 2000 I thought I didn’t get a great deal I just wanted the truck badly anyway I got all and of my money worth I have over 270000 miles on it still running strong and a/c blows cold It still my everyday driver it’s retired from work like me so we will keep going slow and easy

This truck met all my needs and is so reliable. It never left me stranded. Runs true and smooth. Best color on the market. Traveled throughout the US with confidence. Has been maintained always with recent parts and accessories. Great for every day driver or that teen that just started driving.

The truck I purchased is fantastic. I really enjoy driving it. The people at this dealer ship really care that you are HAPPY customer, from the GM to the service are fantastic

I pull a 9-ton boat, 10.4 x 36' with ease and have no problems at all, twin 300HP engines, 310 gallons of fuel 80 gallons of water, etc, etc. Hills are no problems either. I keep the speed at 60 mph on the highways and get 7-8 MPG. The boat gets 0.7 MPG. I use 4x4 launching and retrieving, for safety reasons and some of the ramps are extremely steep and it pulls the boat out loaded with 8 friends, gear, 100 lbs of ice and plenty of fish. I I don't think any other truck could come close with the demands I ask of it. My truck has 294,751 miles and runs like the day I bought it. Am I happy? You better believe it. I keep it looking brand new and perform all maintenance without fail. I think meticulous maintenance is the key to longevity and reliability but most importantly, it's a FORD, 5.4, KR. with all towing features by Ford. No aftermarket parts are installed. Ford, 100%.

I bought my 2001 F-150 about 6 months ago. It had around 164k when I got it now it’s over 170k, nothing but reliability since. I bought the truck with a full service history dating back to 2006 and a partial dating the entire life of the truck. And you get what you pay for if you maintain the truck. Since owning it all I’ve done is routine maintenance, namely oil changes. The coils and plugs need to be changed now and I had a AC line develop a leak, but they are the original factory parts. The truck still fires right up and drives where I need to go. She ain’t the prettiest thing on the road but not the ugliest. The interior has held up well over the years and still looks good for its age showing minimal wear. This is my second ford truck with over 150,000 miles and now I’m a ford truck only guy, my first was a 1997 ranger. My last GM developed a tick at 55k and threw 2 rods. Not the case with the fords I’ve had. I would recommend a good used ford truck any day of the week.

This truck has been a great daily driver for my son. It would be a great addition for anyone needing a daily driver or work truck.
