It’s been GREAT for the 12 years I’ve owned it

This truck has been outstanding. Both for my work and for my personal use. Great on and off road. New last year, shocks, plugs, injectors.

Frame Rusted Out.

We bought this truck used, with only 87thousend miles. The frame is rusted so bad it is unsafe to drive. I would never recommend a ford to anyone.

Daughters First Vehicle

Good solid vehicle, considering it is 14 years old. Paint is good, bed is solid, mileage was low again considering its age. Came stock with nice wheels

Nightmare that keeps on giving.

5.4 L engine is not built to last. Looks good and has all of the features I was looking for in a truck. However I made a mistake of buying from a less than reputable dealership. My lesson.
