I have had my F-150 supercrew since January 2010. One issue-at 30,000 miles the torque converter would leak fluid once every 3 days (weird). Ford fixed it under warranty. Otherwise, absolutely perfect in all areas. This truck saved me from an Alabama snowageddon last year. It tool 10 hours to go 20 miles but the 2 of us made it. 75000 miles and the brakes are still 80% pads. The truck is so quiet on the road. Yesterday I got 22 miles per gallon going 65 mph on the interstate. If you have kids the back seat area is like a large sitting room. If you can find a 2010 with good mileage buy it. I am 65 years old and have had lots and lots and lots of vehicles. Best of the bunch! Just keep it serviced and clean and you will have a winner. It is a truck but Ford F-150s are the best selling truck for a reason!

2010 4Dr XLT F150 5.4L 3.31GR 145WB So far this has been a fair ride. Had issues with the tranny shifting. Had to argue with the dealer about it. They finally re-loaded the software for the tranny and it is working good now. No cost to fix. At 60,000 miles the exhaust manifold crack. Out of warranty. $1000 to fix. Appears to be a known issue. Had to put silicone around the cargo light. Water stained the liner. This also a known issue. Basic model. No fancy electronics. Just a radio and CD player. Manual temp controls. Currently pull a 6500 lb travel trailer. Have not had any issues with that. Over all pleased. Basic issues. No show stoppers. Just maintain and should be good. As my Dad always told me "If you can't maintain the vehicle you have, you can't afford a new one" Replace gears 3.73 now. Pulls trailer much better. After almost 10 years starting to see Clear coat rot on hood & drv side fender. No major issues. Still does exactly what I want it to. 07/25/20 Serious clear coat rot on hood other than that been running like a champ 01/27/21 Over 114,000 miles Truck is still running great. Have not done much with it this year because of the pandemic. The clear coat cancer looks awful but that is typical Ford paint job. 08/04/2021 120,000 miles. Heater Core went out last week. $1200 to fix. 02/20/2023 There is clear coat rot now but other than that it is running as expected. Considering how much a new F150 costs probably get it painted and keep it for another 12 years. 129,xxx miles.

2010 F-150 King Ranch 4X4

This is my 2nd King Ranch & 4th F-Series truck since 1997. They just keep getting better. Replaced my 2005 model with this 2010; wow, what a difference. Re-worked 5.4 liter engine barely labors to move this truck around. More fuel efficient, much, much roomier cab front & back, quiet as a Lexus, significantly better brakes. Love the styling inside & out. Opted for all the toys including 20" wheels, limited-slip 3.55 rear gear ratio, Navi with 700 watt Sony sound system (including subwoofer under the rear seat), sliding rear window, moonroof, and Platinum white tri- coat metallic paint. I find myself looking back for a second glance at the truck every time I drive it.

I purchased this truck new on May 31, 2010. It now has 31600 miles. I have not had any issues with it in terms of mechanical or electrical. I love how the truck feels when I drive it, it is very comfortable, and roomy. The mileage sucks, but if I was concerned about mileage I would not have bought it. In Mar 2015, I noticed moisture on the inside of the windshield, and since my windshield had been replaced I thought the new one had a leak... so had the windshield replaced again.. but again months later I had moisture on the inside of the windshield. I finally started doing some research online and found out that Ford has known for years that the sat antenna, and third brake lights leak into the cab. According to TSB 10-4-7 Ford F150's made before Jan 18, 2010, have the antenna problem. The technical bulletin calls for a bead of silicone around the gasket of the sat antenna. Once the brake light leaks, the only fix is a bead of silicone or replacement since Ford decided not to make a separate gasket for the lens. The cost of fixing both problems is $740.00 if you take it to a Ford dealer. My dealer refused to follow the guidelines of the TSB for the antenna since when they removed the old one, it had a bead of silicone around the gasket direct from the factory ( my vehicle was made in Mar 2010) so it appears that once Ford discovered the problems and published the TB, they decided to use the same antennas on all the vehicles that came out after the publication of the TB, and following the TB, just placed silicone on the gaskets as the trucks were being built. This fix does not work, as I can attest by my repair bill of $440.00 just for replacement of the antenna. I replaced the third brake light for $100. but an after marked brake light can be purchased for $35.00. I don't mind spending money on my truck due to fail wear and tear or normal maintenance, but I am really pissed about the cost of these repairs. If these problems showed up prior to the basic 3 year, 36000 mile warranty, Ford would be required to fix them under the basic warranty, even if you purchased the Extended warranty you are not covered for these problems. Ford used faulty parts on this truck and many others, they should have issued a recall and paid to fix all the problems. This is as much a health and safety hazard as it is an inconvenience. When water enters the truck over time mold and mildew will grow. The water also gets into the channels and door thresholds were the wiring is run for lights, windows etc., causing a safety and fire hazard. And the leaks are going to stain your rear seats, and headlined , and destroy your carpet. Ford has known of these problems back to 1998, based on the information I have found on the internet. I contacted Ford about this problem and they did listen and give me a case number, telling me they would contact my dealer and see if there was a program to help pay for cost of the repairs.. I don't expect Ford to do anything. I would not recommend any one buy a Ford F150 new or used until Ford can prove the problems are solved.

Great Truck

My 2010 F150 Supercrew FX4 Silver 5.4L. This truck has been a very reliable truck since purchasing it. My truck has 155382 on it and it is on its 3rd set of tires (BF Goodrich TAKO Great Tire) My Truck had 48656 on it when i purchased it with all the maintenance records. No Issues other than normal maintenance. This truck was a CPO with 7 years or 125000 mile warranty. The only maintenance i have had done to my truck is 1. Front Rotors at 115000 only because i let one side of my brake shoe get to low and it damaged one rotor and i went and had both front put on by ford. 365.00. Had a 4X4 ABS Unit ground out at 118000 miles warranty covered it 850.00. Had a Fuel level sensor on the fuel pump to go bad at 121000 miles however it was covered under warranty 980.00. Changed my spark plugs at 124000 no issues, I just wanted to put new ones in. 112.00. I run Penzoil Full Synthetic 5w-20. I change my oil every 5000 miles. I have had to change all of my TPMS on each tire cost 320.00 over the past year and half. Since my warranty has ran out my truck has ran pretty much flawless. I have been looking for a newer or a new truck for over 8 months. Im considering the 2017 Nissan Titan Pro-4X half ton or Ford F150 in either XLT or Lariat FX4 Package. I have had them all Tacoma is a good truck but the tundra is just outdated and the frame is extremely to flexable. I work on mining property and the tundra has a good engine and transmission but the frame is not good. When loaded and going across not level ground you can see the back of the cab get dents and holes punched into by the truck bed where it is flexing to much. You do not see that from a Ford, Dodge, Chevy and even a Nissan Titan. All trucks have there issues however for me Ford has always been good to me in about all aspects of performance, reliability, wear and tear and especially comfort. Ford has probably the best ride of all the trucks in my opinion. Hope this review helps someone make a good decision on a great truck. One more point Ford has been the best selling truck for almost 40 years straight.
