I own 2 F150’s from 2011 with 5.

I own 2 F150’s from 2011 with 5.0. Bought new. Lariat has 53,000 miles, XL has 118,000 miles. Basic maintenance and have had NO issues. The XL is a work truck and I’ve been rough with it. They are very dependable. The low tire pressure sensor stay lit up on the gauges. Nothing wrong, but I refuse to pay $145. to turn off the display icon on the instrument cluster. Those trucks were worth it.

As a high school student who will be graduating in 2029,

As a high school student who will be graduating in 2029, I can say that having a 2011 F-150 is definitely a perfect fit for my personal liking. I have a short bed, crew cab, ecoboost, Texas edition, 2011 F-150 with 175K miles, and the only problems I had with the truck were its dim factory halogen headlights and a blinker casing that broke about 25k miles ago. I recently got new headlights, and they work like a dream. If I had to choose between my parents' family cars or my truck for a long-distance drive, my truck would absolutely take the win for comfort. She rides like a catilac, and stings like a beaver. You can never beat that leather interior. The exterior of my truck is pretty alright; it has a little rust, but I live in northeastern Iowa, so that's regular. Not only is my truck reliable, but it's quick. That ecoboost is not messing around, and I haven't been late to anything yet. The truck is really solid with its mechanics, but if you have an Ecoboost, you ought to be on top of your oil changes. And gas ain't the cheapest, considering that you have to buy premium, but other than that, 18mpg is pretty solid for a full-sized truck, especially. I got my truck for around 11k, and I'm absolutely delighted with my purchase. My overall rating would be 9.4 if I had the option.

I did not receive any recall notices at all.

I did not receive any recall notices at all. I am currently having problems with some of the items in recalls and have already paid for two of them (over $ 1300). Will Ford reimburse me?

Love the truck looks cool and rides like a limo.

Bought my truck used in 2016 with 69k miles one owner vehicle currently pushing 122k. Only major issue has been the replacement of the break pump, great on gas plenty of torque have hauled a Bob Cat in the past with no issues. Love my truck!

Great deal

Grey deal heated mirrors 11k tow package, custom Ford rims, remote start, and much more that makes this a deal of a lifetime. Can't believe Rick(salesperson) Michael (owner) did awesome with the sale. 5k below bluebook, and I am happy as ever.

awesome power

The ecoboost motor has more power than it needs, towed up 10,000 lbs at over 11000 ft. elevation the truck has plenty of power. The truck has a few needs when purchased used, spark plugs, weep hole mod (look it up). once sorted the vehicle is very reliably and economical. 18-19 on the hwy at 70-75, average 14.2 over the last 8k miles thats city heavy towing and HWY.

Exactly what we needed

Love our truck. It is a great vehicle with spacious interior and it is strong enough to haul a trailer which is one of the reasons we purchased it.

Most comfortable, stylish, and reliable Ford I've

We bought this 2011 f150 5.0l v8 Fx4 truck two month's ago and it just gets better every day. I guess the first thing would be be the 5.0l v8 and 6spd trans. This motor totally surpasses any of my wants in a truck motor..As well, it also Grace's the Ford Mustang..That's what I feel like, with the power I'm sitting on I Should be in a Mustang..The throttle response is awesome to say the least. And the transmission, working with this motor is just Great. It really just shifts up and down thru the gears, and when you leave your foot on the gas it'll really grab your attention. I am totally satisfied with the mpg, as I can handle 17 in town and 21 or so highway..The truck with the beautiful chrome running boards and front grill..Chrome wheels with 275/65R18 Cooper Discoverer A/T tires..The whole truck inside and out is just an attention grabber..One thing I wish it would have came with was a Nav/Bluetooth Stereo System, but that'll be on my Christmas list..lol..Wish I could post a pic, but don't know how.. Thanks for letting me drone on..
