Very Good Truck!

My truck is a regular cab, 6 foot bed, 4wheel drive, with the 4.2L V6. And it's an XL with the appearance group so I get the chrome bumpers and fog lights and radio. This truck has 132,000 miles and has never failed to get me where I want to go. I've got a 5-inch lift, Dual Flowmaster Exhausts, and I'm running 20" rims on there with 35" tires. I had a universal joint go out at 128,000 miles but that is the only thing I've had go wrong with it. The check engine light has been on for 6,000 miles but no problems. I change the oil every 3,500 miles. The truck doesn't have too many features to talk about. I like the 5-speed manual transmission. I prefer driving manuals and nowadays you can't even get a manual heavy-duty truck anymore. :( For such a small V6, the power is great. It's rated at 202 horsepower, but I feel like this truck is putting out 350 hp! FYI - no tuning, but I pulled a 4.7L V8 Dodge Ram in a tug-of-war the other day. It's got high gears (3.55) and I stall it a good bit when I'm in reverse. That is about my only complaint. It has minimal rust. The driver's side cab-corner is the only thing rusting, and it's not that bad. I just put some putty on it and painted over it. I'll wait until it gets really bad before I replace it. These model years might just be the most-dependable and best Ford F-150s ever built! But yeah, the new 2011 F-150 with the EcoBoost and all, yeah, they are still cool! :)

Best fun I've ever had

bought this car from a dealer I found via cars.com in mission kansas. Love the truck and salesman was fantastic, he stayed late in 5inches of snow til I could make the 3 hour trip. Fast and efficent. I spent 75.00 dollars and drove this truck to MO and back 800 miles, topped off 3 times and this baby didn't miss lick in the ozarks. Thank you to my salesman for making my 4x4 dream come true.

I'm extremely pleased with this truck.

Comfort is great, road noise is suprisingly low for a four door truck. Mine is a full optioned Supercrew XLT Lariat 4X4, with plenty of power, with good looks and styling. I'm super impressed.

Nicest truck I've ever owned

I bought my F150 and few months back and I love it! It's smooth riding, and looks good inside and out! I was lucky to find this truck with such low miles, I will keep it for as long as it keeps on trucking! I get many compliments on this truck from strangers. Couldn't be happier with any other truck. It pulls my 25 ft travel trailer with ease! Yes, I would recommend this truck to anyone!

The best truck I have ever hade

I bought this truck new in 2002 and have since put 140,000 plus miles on it and the only problems I have had was replacing the oxygen sensors! The only other things I have done are routine maint. brakes, oil, plugs and tires. I will drive this truck til one of us (me or the truck)dies! The only down side to this truck is the gas milage, I get just over 14 MPG city or highway. Wish I had bought two!

Great all around pickup for everyday use.

Good power with 5.4 V8. Reliable and comfortable to drive on short or long trips. SuperCrew is great for up to six average size people and FX4 package offers sweet styling.
