beavis0076 Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Here is another quote.... http://www.core77.com/blog/object_culture/...d_uhoh_9225.asp according to Top Gear, the best-selling car in the world is the Ford F-150 pickup truck. They are sold at an astonishing rate of 107 every hour of every day of the year, which means two or three went while I was composing this paragraph. Getting only 14/20 mpg, that's not good news for anyone except Exxon and several dozen lucky Sheiks. Cheers Kingman WA state residents are just plain smarter.......

My dad owns one, an '01 Lariat 5.4L 4x4. It's given us 115k of completely reliable service. One coil pack and a cruise control recall. I believe the Titan and Pathfinder Armada got a black dot for reliability a few years on the Consumer Reports list...

SC88Pathy Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 My dad has a 99 F150 2WD with the 4.something V8 (I think). His only problems have been the gas mileage and a lack of traction when the bed is empty (of course we have helper springs on the back so that doesn't help with the traction issue) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
