Yes Review Date: 8th May, 2012. The cam phasers are a huge problem and are expensive to replace. My 1993 Ford F-250 has been used, abused, and has about 160,000, still ready to roll. Rear parking brake seized up at 48,000Km. Well about a month ago, I had a whine develop and the vibration got a lot worse. General Comments: This truck has been a disappointment. The transmission shifts are quirky.
General Comments: I want to say first that I am totally unbiased, and have no reason to exaggerate. Still had slight vibration, but I figured it is a truck, they always ride a little rough. Best of all, I got it all at a great price too! Looks big, drives big Does the new F-150 drive like a car? But the exterior in only wrapping over an interior that is radically better than before. General Comments: Not surprisingly, having owned several Fords in the past, I am extremely pleased with this one as well. The cabin has been well kept, and the seats are comfortable.
I have had it overheat before and stop playing. It towed a maximum of 9,900 pounds and had a maximum payload capacity of 3,000 pounds. Yes Review Date: 25th December, 2010 Faults: Uses two quarts of oil between changes. General Comments: It still rides great and has decent power. It seems to go through tires quickly, but that may be my spirited driving.

This engine operates quietly and smoothly if not quite as quietly and smoothly as the smaller, less powerful 4. People buy vehicles with extremely high miles and expect them to perform like new. According to the dealer, Ford loosened them up because of customer complaints about noise. I have a '08 F150 V6 and it too has a rough idle to it, comes and goes. The brakes felt really soft, so I upgraded to slotted rotors; big improvement. It looks bad but doesn't affect the stereos performance.
So now I have the transmission override jammed so I can get out of gear. Passenger front door does not close correctly, but dealer refused to acknowledge. It's hard on fuel it is a truck. Model year 2005 Year of manufacture 2004 First year of ownership 2007 Most recent year of ownership 2009 Engine and transmission 4. The coil packs are a constant problem.
Rated at 300-horsepower the new Triton makes 40 more horsepower than the 2003 two-valve, 5. I wish this truck was as reliable as my 1998 Ford Expedition. I leave it in trans mode. It is a pretty truck, but if you need a truck to do some work, look for something else. My 1998 Ford Expedition with 207,000 has never missed a beat.
If that did not work, it was probably in the differential or transfer case. It's a great design, and makes for lots of cargo room inside. It rides nice and has lots of power. It's strong, fast and has a luxury feel when driving. Model year 2005 Year of manufacture 2005 First year of ownership 2010 Most recent year of ownership 2010 Engine and transmission 4.

General Comments: This truck has been repaired several times. Stereo failure at 1 year old. And that means every pony the engine makes has to tug along a bigger load. Yes Review Date: 4th January, 2011 Faults: I bought this truck around June or July. If you drive 90kph - 55mph, you can get 18-20mpg. Love the 4wd in it. General Comments: Feels slightly underpowered.
Pros: This is a beautiful truck. Added an Edge programmer, and what a difference. But, I got them new, meaning they had 100k fewer miles than your truck for a lot of the driving. But honestly every truck in the full-size, half-ton category is good with something to recommend it. Hey, if someone ever built a nearly three-ton sedan that sits up high on a four-wheel drive system, we could only hope it rode this well. A few years ago 300 horsepower would have been a stunning achievement for a truck engine.
New for the 2005 Ford F150 was the Ford F150 King Ranch with Castano leather interior, a 4. The 2005 Ford F150 offered 5 distinct models, including three different cab choices and box lengths and two different box types. Mine seems underpowered, even with the manual trans it feels like a 4 banger. Cons: It idles rough sometimes. Want a truck that looks like a big rig? Faults: Both power windows broke.
