Used 2000 Ford F-150 Extended Cab Consumer Reviews
A Long White Elephant!
I purchased this truck in Dec 2006- my old 93 Suburban totally blew out it's transmission and I needed a vehicle as my wife is in a wheelchair & she got in and out if the Suburban easily, as well as loading her chair. This truck was a spur-of-the-moment thing as I didn't think I'd get credit. I did and my wife hates this truck! She cannot get into it! - The passenger seat is almost 2 inches higher than the driver seat- seat top is a full 36 inches from teh ground! - The Odometer keeps coming on & off due to a crack in the soldering (a problem noted on F150.net) - Fuel economy stinks! My Suburban with that big 350 got an average of 16 to 18! This small-block V8 gets 12 mpg. - The ABS died
Ford needs to do better

all around good pickup
I have a Lariat with the 5.4 in it and am really impressed with the pickup, but would really like to see one with a five speed, I think it would be more fun to drive. I get too bored driving an automatic. plus the performance would be a lot better with a five speed. I really like the ride and handling of the pickup and it does everything I want it to do. We are selling it because of the automatic, we would probably keep it if it had a stick.
Good Truck
Good light work truck... good towing and hauling. Solid on long trips. Minor repairs neccessary on ignition and some seals... all covered by warranty. A/C could be better.
2000 Ford F-150 XLT Ext. Cab - 2WD
Power door locks failed at 37,000 miles, dealer would not do anything about this (I have since discovered that this is a very common problem). Seat belts are uncomfortable and difficult to use! Seats provide good support, but fabric is uncomfortable. Center armrest is very uncomfortable. Ride and noise is not nearly as good as my son's 2000 Dodge Ram!
