2017 Ford F-150 review: Our expert's take

Vehicle Overview

What it is: The F-150 is the light-duty version of Ford’s F-Series line of full-size pickup trucks. It became the first large-volume vehicle to have a fully aluminum body when it was redesigned for 2015. The F-150 comes in regular, extended and crew cab body styles and offers three cargo box lengths: 5.5, 6.5 and 8 feet. Competitors include the Chevrolet Silverado, Ram 1500 and Toyota Tundra.
New for 2017
A new available turbocharged 3.5-liter V-6 engine makes more power and works with a new 10-speed automatic transmission. The V-6’s horsepower rating increases by 10 to 375 hp and torque is up 50 pounds-feet to 470 pounds-feet.

The off-road-oriented Raptor model returns to the F-150 lineup for 2017. Available in extended and crew cab body styles, the Raptor features Fox Racing shocks and a Terrain Management System with six preset modes.

MY F150 ECO RUNS GREAT

I have had absolutely no issues with my pickup, F150 Eco. It isn't the greatest on mileage, probably in the area of 17 but I'm not complaining. I'll say this, when I'm driving 65 and have to pass on a 2 lane road and I kick it down, it gets up there immediately. Not one issue with the engine. I just spun 39,000 on it.

From love to ugh

I purchased my 2017 F150 Limited new and loved the vehicle up until the past six months. At 51K miles the transmission has become a big issue (e.g. slipping when moved from park to reverse to drive, hesitating to engage when slowing down and then speeding back up at local or freeway speeds, and rough downshifting approaching a stop). It's in for Ford service now for the third time to address the transmission issues but my confidence in Ford service is low - in past visits, they updated software and tightened a battery cable and expected that to fix the issue. For the money this truck costs, I expected better reliability and definitely a better service experience. The truck is driven mostly freeway and local roads, no offroad, no towing.
