Wow, 5 year old thread.....
And, Ford is still #1 in truck sales. HEHEH. BTW I loved the posts about the Turdra.

Re: 2001 F-150 Super Crew 4wd problems [lionscott]
I am having the same problems with my 2007 f-250. I just called ford customer care because my 4 wheel not engaging caused me to have an accident. They are sending to legal and I was told that before a recall on this issue can be made everyone having this issue needs to call them and complain. Their number is 1-800-392-3673. Hope this helps everyone.

F-150 brakes
I just had the local Ford dealer replace all the brake pads on my 2001 F-150. Now it won't stop right! The front brakes don't seem to be engaging - you can't make it stop quickly in forward (it will in reverse). They said that the front pads will seat in a day or two and it will work right. Should I believe them? Thanks. Bob

Hello all. I would like to know if anyone here owns the 2000 F150 Harley Davidson SuperCab &/or the 2001 F150 Harley Davidson CrewCab. How do they drive? How is the reliability? What is the gas mileage like? I'm looking at the 2002 Ram Quad Cab, but like the Harley Davidson F150's better. But.. after my 96 Contour fiasco, I'm skeptical of buying another Ford product (I've heard the horror stories ... Read More

How do you ID Limited Slip Diffs ???
How can I determine, by looking at the OUTSIDE of the rear differential case, if an F-150 has limited slip ? Are there codes stamped into the housing ? A tag ? Is there a way, using the VIN number, to determine this ? Do I need to contact ford ? The truck is a 2001 F-150 Supercab 2x4 "Sport" XLT. thanks.

They claim Ford doesn't have any service bulletins on it.Any possible solutions can take to them would be appreciated. Thanks

My experience
Ford trucks are the number one selling truck for 25 years, isn't it? That is going back a few years. I know some people don't care about sales volume, stating it has nothing to do with how great a vehicle is. These people tend to drive vehicles that aren't #1. Let us not forget that you should not buy a vehicle because it is the best selling. You should buy the ... Read More

Sales number?
In calander year 2001 F series did sell the most of any brand, but the Superduty is not the same truck as the F-150, so combining them is like combining GMC and Chevrolet. 2001 sale totals rounded to a thousand: 1. Chevrolet Silverado 1500, 465,000, not including 2500 & 3500 or GMC. 2. Ford Superduty_________ 390,000, all F-250 or larger 3. Ford F-150 ____________ 346,000 Source http://forbes.com/2002/02/04/0204flint.html Harry

Pleather seats
Our F150 seat have some areas where the stitching is coming apart. We will have to see what Ford has to say after 2 months of ownership. On the flip side we like how the seats feel and the size of them. With the power drivers seat it's easy to get it where you think the seat needs to be. Fuel mileage has come up to 16 mpg now , with ... Read More

I went to every Ford site around here that had a website and emailed them. Wade Ford, Cherokee and Vernie Jones were the only ones that emailed me back. Cherokee's price was absurd and when I tried to email him back, it bounced - not a good sign. The guy at Wade Ford gave me a great price on a SuperCrew, but I thought I might want the SuperCab instead. I'm ... Read More

Radiators - Tow Pkg
My dealer's parts man found the following message on the Ford dealer parts computer system: "Attention: Radiator Concern: 2001 F150, 5.4L engine with trailer tow pkg (XL3Z-8005-AA) If you have concerns call Ford FCSD reg. office. Bulletin #3556" The dealer was passing this on to his area rep. in my behalf. Does anyone have an opinion on what this means?

Cab pops and spring tip isolators, etc...
This is similar to lilelmo's post's. (By the way lilelmo do you use Akins?) They have mine again! Actually I should say still. They have tightened the cab bolts twice... still pops. They have replaced spring isolators twice...still squeaks. When they "fixed" that they made the front end pop when turned to the right, they replaced the entire drag link set up, spindal to spindal. At least I got a free ... Read More

Almost ready
Leeg3: Here are my thoughts regarding your questions on a new Supercrew. IMHO: 1.I haven't driven one with a 4.6L but mine with the 5.4L rides very nice. As far as the tranny - not sure but I think the 5.4L might have a different tranny than the 4.6L. At any rate, the 5.4L comes with a HD transmission cooler with should improve longevity & transmission performance particularly if towing is ... Read More

F-150 2001 Class III Towing Option
I received an e-mail from the Ford Customer Service people and they informed me that the Option #535 is NOT available with the F-150 series and they are trying to inform the dealerships that this opiton should not be offered. Thus the Class III Towing package is not an option and now I wonder if the stated towing capacity of the F-150 Supercrew is correct or not? The saga continues--don't let ... Read More

Year 2002 Screw
Was informed by a dealer yesterday that it was too late to order a 2001 but could already order a 2002 with a 6 to 8 week delivery. No 2002 yr. literature was available, but an order printout that was given to me for consideration includes retail prices for my requested options that are identical to 2001 prices and the base price is only $30 more. This surprises me because I ... Read More

My truck better 'n your truck wars
Milt you sound like a Ford basher to me. If Cadillac ride is your standard to spend $25K to $35K then so be it. Other folks check out resale, towing capability,reliability,economy,suitability for expected use, consumer reports, and an other dozen or so considerations not the least being Brand loyalty and looks. In some way or another all the current offerings will appeal to somebody. The ongoing discussion here is the Ford ... Read More

Wrong Radiator Indeed
I purchased the Class III towing package on my 2001 Screw Lariat with 5.4 I engine. Indeed I have the 1.02 inch radiator instead of the heavier 1.42 inch one row radiator. I told my service manager about it last week and gave him copies of the discussions going on in the f150.online bulletin board about the subject. I expect to hear back this week from him.

2001 Price Increase....
Seldomseentoo, I'm not exactly sure what happened, but when I went in to order the truck, the dealer and I sat at the computer, configured the truck and came up with the $630/$800 price for the 5.4 option. That was on 3/5. Then, when the dealer entered that same build configuration into the ordering computer on 3/7(to place the order), the 5.4 option showed up as $1300/$1550 along with a $200 ...

2001 SCREW PRICE INCREASE?????
hey wehttam1! Are you sure you got your info right, everything I can see is that it is still +$800 for the 5.4 vs the 4.6 on the screw. If you go to Ford.com and price a "regular f150" then it is, +$1550 but thats if you go from a base v6 (4.2)to a 5.4. On the screws, base engine is a 4.6, so it looks like its still +$800 to ...

price negotiation
Want to arrive at a fair offering price for a 2001 ford f150 xlt 4wd super crew which will be ordered. Is it customary these days for the dealer to fill the fuel tank for no charge? Should a buyer reasonably expect to pay a $260 FDAF Assessment (advertising fee) and $100 over invoice for an ordered vehicle when dealer's hold back would be 100% profit? The first dealer that I ...

good deal on the supercrew
I bought a 2001 F150 supercrew from Klement Ford of Shawnee Oklahoma for $49 over invoice! My retired father is driving it back from OK right now. They will drop ship the truck to a Ford dealer in your area for approximately $200. (My dad wanted to go to Dallas anyway to visit friends). As good a deal as I could find. I got a very well equipped XLT 2WD, 5.4L ... Read More
