One of the best vehicles I've ever owned

Having been a lifelong Ford fan and a retired senior master Ford tech and service manager, I can atest to the greatness of this vehicle. Mine was special ordered for a specific purpose, pulling my 12,000 lb 5th wheel camper. The 3.5 ecoboost is VERY capable for this purpose. Mine is a supercrew, 6.5 bed, 10 speed auto, max tow, max payload with the 20" wheel option. Averaged 10.5 mpg pulling the trailer and overall average of 21.4 mpg. As an example of its ability, we went up Fancy Gap at 60 mph with tons of throttle left with the trailer in tow. We bought it new in 2018 and as of 2/18/21, it has 83,000 trouble free miles on it. The key is keep the maintainence up and sit back and enjoy.

Comfortable and Great Performance

The vehicle has met all my expectations. The cabin is quiet, the vehicle has every option I could want and fuel economy is good for this size vehicle. Great towing capacity.

2018 Ford F150 XLT SuperCrew Sport Edition

I cannot say enough good things about this truck. Perfect size for me. Great ride and tons of power. Feels like I am riding down the road in my living room. Real big inside. Comfortable, smooth ride, looks cool and has plenty of power. I would highly recommend, you will not be dissapointed!

No longer a Ford fan

Ride is rough. Undeserved punishment. Seat foam like sitting on a brick. Not something to take on a road trip. Loaded with most options. Don't need most of them but they came with the truck. Has automatic engine shut off feature. Hate that. Have 2 wheel drive. Gets stuck in 4" of snow. Has 50k miles on it, getting either a rear end differential gear noise starting or rear wheel bearing starting to go. Heat/ a-c controls too close to radio and styled the same so you have to take your eyes off the road to be sure of what you are reaching for. Lotsa plastic. Feels cheap. Body is aluminum, dents easy. Good gas mileage. around 20 mpg (6 cyl). I also own a 55 year old F100. it's a 4x4. Manual shift. Has heater and am radio. Would much rather drive that.

Ownership review

I’ve had my 2018 Ford F150 super cab 4 x 4 for three years now and it has performed flawlessly the only problem I had once was that it wouldn’t start and it turned out to be a bad Battery that Ford came and picked up the truck put a new battery and it came back with a courtesy vehicle and pick me up within one hour awesome

A Beast Among Trucks

I recently purchased a Ford F-150 Raptor and couldn't be happier. The one I got has the beadlock rims and the 802A package. This vehicle is definitely a beast to be reckoned with.

2018 Ford 150 Crew Cab

Overall very nice truck. Still too expensive for a new one so I purchased used with 27,000 miles. Pros: comfortable, easy layout of of buttons on steering wheel and center control console, nice that it can seat 6, happy with shifter on column, a LOT of space in back seat of crew cab, 6 cylinder can tow boat easily Cons: when truck is cold 10 speed transmission will occasionally jerk between 3-5th gear - this is a common problem with Fords 10 speed transmission, needs more cub holders.

My first F150

I have been very pleased with the performance and the design of the F150. Very roomy and all controls are user friendly. I traded my Ram for the F150. Best decision.

I love it, but.....

Its hard to believe for such a "newer" vehicle, it has so many recalls already! I'm glad there is a Ford Co. here in Orange, Texas.

Plan on another one in 2021

Awesome, comfortable, good looking great diesel mileage, pulls my 25 ft center console boat with ease and averages 16 miles to the gallon when pulling a 8,000 lb boat. HWY mileage best was 30 miles to gallon
