My F-150 review
I had my F-150 for about 18 months now so here is my short review.
I bought brand new F-150 SuperCab 4x4 in summer of 2005. I only drive it only when I need it so its not a surprise that it have only 3,500 miles. Overall, I'm very satisfied with my truck. Positive: -Space. Even though its not CrewCab, it can easily fit 7 people. -Cargo Capacity. Although its rated at 1,500 pounds, I drove as much as 2,000 pounds in the truck's bed. -4x4 doesn't show any weaknesses on the snow. Negative: -Fuel economy. I know its a truck, but during the winter with 4x4 I can't get more than 10 mpg. -4.6L is very underpowered and it doesn't feel as 231 hp. -Brakes sucks. I hate them. -Standard equipment sucks. Compared to my Mustang, I don't have anything power, CD player or cruise control. http://i133.photobucket.com/albums/q...5/IMG_0404.jpg http://i133.photobucket.com/albums/q...5/IMG_0262.jpg http://i133.photobucket.com/albums/q...5/IMG_0263.jpg http://i133.photobucket.com/albums/q..._045/F1501.jpg http://i133.photobucket.com/albums/q...5/IMG_0266.jpg |
That's one of the many reasons I got my Mustang. I went to the dealer that day to buy an F150. After 10 years in my 96 F150 with the bench seat and crank windows, I wanted one that was loaded. Those end up coming in at 36K and up, or you can get a slightly used one for $25K, or....brand new GT for $25K!

I got mine for $21,000. MSRP was $29,000, so I think I got really good deal.
I often think that I made a mistake of buying F-150 instead of new Mustang, but when winter and snow come - I'm glad I bought F-150. |

I usually don't, but I did few times. My cousing is coming over for a visit from Serbia and six of us went to the airport to pick him up.
I only use seatbelt if I'm driving, but in F-150 there is that annoying sound even when passenger in front didn't use seat belt. |
