Simply put: best vehicle I have ever owned. I bought my '04 FX4 with 50k miles. After owning for 5 years, I sold it with 174k miles on it. Every mile was hard driven. I have a heavy foot, like to floor it, frequently jump curbs with it, drive it like I stole it. Towed a 19' boat from San Diego to Lake Havasu and back on multiple occasions. Previous owner replaced the transmission: he was towing a 26' cabin cruiser with it - something you need an f250 for. Only thing I did was replace alternator and serp belt. Oil changes every 5-7k miles with MobilOne 5-20 full synthetic. I sold the truck to buy a newer model. At 174k miles, excellent resale value. Felt like crying the next day. Best truck.
222,460 miles, and runs and looks new.

this truck is fords f150 11 generation, full box frame huge hd shocks mounted on outside the springs, 5.4 3 valve engine 300 hrs power , [not 281 like the 03 365 pounds of tourq] i had an 07 lincoln mark lt but still own my old ford, they drove the same,the chevy 5.3 has smoother power and better milage,i have an 2011 with 145,655 miles i bought new, i keep the fprd because the undercarage is the same as the 2017, and my truck dose not have 1 SPOT OF RUST, I SPRAY EVERYTING UNDERNEITH AND ENGINE ALL HINGIS WITH REMINGTON GUN OIL , NOT A SINGLE RUST SPOT ON FRONT AXLES -REAR END- SPRINGS, GAS STRAPS, TRANNY COVER -OIL PAN, DOOR HANDLES ,THE ENGINE IS SHOWROOM, and the for has the best half ton breaks. I drove a 2017 f 250 4x4 all aluminum that truck was all over the road, to high way too light, the wind blows all over the place, ford will be sorry, [but I'm picky] all the half tons lookgreat,dodge ram-chevy-gmc-ford-Nissan -Toyota, the consumer has great choices, I don't like v-6 turbo gas motor,

Bought the truck in January 2004 when there weren't many on the road. 120,000 miles later and the only two things on the entire truck that have broke was the passenger side window motor and the grommet on the center shift linkage. Unbelievable low maintenance truck. Been using mobile one full synthetic oil since it was a baby and Fram filters. Two sets of brakes and 3 sets of tires later the truck is perfect. Everything in the truck still works even those back up sensors. Put a leveling kit on it when it was new and thats it. Great truck, not looking forward to changing the plugs though, that maybe a big problem due to the issue with the 5.4 and the spark plugs breaking off.
First amd last Ford!

Truck was ok till it hit about 100,000 four wheel drive went out, engine blew and rear end shuttered during turns. Every mechanic I talked to said this is not uncommon for the 5.4 after 100,000 the oil pumps quit and the engine self destructs, Ford knows they got a problem and wont fix it sounds like Toyota to me.
