2018 Ford F-150 consumer reviews

Traded in a '15 Suburban 5.3L for a '18 F150 Platinum 3.5L EcoBoost. Drive 40k miles/yr mainly commuting, but also for all around family use, and occasional towing a car hauler. I had handed down my pickup to a family member and kids are grown, so I didn't need 3rd row seat anymore. I was at 175k miles on the Suburban, so I decided to go with a dressed up pickup to fill both needs with one vehicle. I've had it 3 months and put 10k miles on it. Not as quiet as the Suburban but that's expected because it IS a pickup. The F150 seats are more comfortable for travel. The Ford 3.5L V6 is NOTICEABLY peppier than the Chevy 5.3L V8. Gas mileage is about the same. I was getting a 20+ MPG on the Suburban and I get 19+ on the F150 with the same driving routes, conditions, and speeds. However, the F150 is a 4X4, so that accounts for the slight dip in economy. I love the styling of both vehicles. The Platinum package has all the bells and whistles, so I'm happy on the features. Sound system is decent for a factory system. Voice command and phone bluetooth connection is quicker on the F150, but in fairness, it IS a newer vehicle than the Suburban. The Platinums are pricey but not out of line with other manufacturer's prices for premium vehicles. If you want to optimize value, you can get an XLT and get 85% of the truck for 60% of the price of a Platinum or King Ranch. Overall, very happy about my purchase. I look forward to driving again.

I bought this truck in May... using oil.. i take this Ford to the dealerships to have the TSB done... after owning an 2005 F350 6.0.. I'm a Ford truck guy... but... this xxxx... not again... nope... not going to happen again

Drives great. Very quiet for a truck and plenty of power from the turbocharged 2.7L. Interior is nicely finished and comfortable. Plenty of tech - it is basically a truck built around electronics. Nice level of luxury for the money.

Only had it for a few days but totally satisfied. Looked around at lots of trucks (replacing horrible Dodge Ram 1500 crew cab). Awesome truck value and just what we wanted for less money than comparable trucks that were older with more miles

It has 23,000 mi and is in the shop again with electrical and or transmission problems. It is less than 2 yrs old and has broken down 3 times. First and last Ford I will ever have.

Truck is a blast to drive. Sporty, fast, but extremely soft riding. Those fox shocks really have a nice ride on the road! Truck has so many features that you find new things it does randomly. Reliable, fun, but not a gas saver. If this thing had 20' wheels with street tires, it would be a race car!

Love the room, very comfortable, I wish I had had HD radio, I miss my touch screen radio. But overall, like the truck. Nice drive and heavier than my Tacoma.

Plenty of space inside the truck. the Best part is the EcoBoost. The performance is the best. Won't be regret if anyone bought Ford 150 XLT truck.

Had not done much reading on the new re-designs of F150....engines and transmissions, etc. Test drove the F150 / 2.7 ecoboost / 10 speed trans and knew immediately that this was a best in class performer. Excellent responsiveness, great interior and lots of technology. And...this truck has geat eye appeal....sharp looking vehicle. Before completing purchase, did the research (online)...and no doubts. Completed purchase next day...

Best truck I have owned out of 3 fords and 1 toyota. Already had all the bells and whistles I would have done to it plus some amazing features. Not to mention the salesman that helped me, Joe, was amazing. Anything I asked for was “yes” or “I’ll see what I can do” which all ended up being yes. They even did an alignment in about 20 minutes while we were finishing up. Best and quickest car buying experience I have ever had out of 4-5 vehicles. From the time I walked in and drove it off the lot it had only been about 50 minutes an hour max and I test drove it for 15-20 minutes. They were so accommodating that I have already recommended it to my older brother who needs a new car soon. I’ll just end this saying there wasn’t one thing that could have made the experience better other then them giving me the truck for free. I give Grapevine Ford and Joe at Grapevine Ford a 10/10 and already have recommended to a family member. If I ever need anything I know exactly where to go and who I’m going to to see. Check it out for yourself and you’ll see it’s an amazing vehicle buying experience.
