Bought the truck brand new back in 2012. Been an excellent vehicle. Prior to this truck, I owned two Silverado’s that were great trucks as well. Bought the Ford because they didn’t take the govt bailout. Truck currently has 255k, original front end, motor, trans. Had to replace a $300 water pump and a $1200 clutch pack in the rear differential, that’s it. Oh, maybe a $60 electric motor seat switch. Great truck, pulled a lot of stuff across the country and actually used like a truck. 5.0 is the way to go.

Nice Truck, Very Poor Fuel Economy

The Ecoboost has great power for a V6. But the drawback is fuel mileage. We average about 11.5 city/ and a whooping 17 hwy if we stay in the right lane. The supercab 4 door is a terrible design. You need ALOT of room on both sides to get in/out. Front doors do not have a "catch" point when you open. Be ready to hold the door if you don't want to hit the vehicle next to you. If you have back seat riders, you have to undo your seat belt and open the front door in order to let them in or out, since the seat belt is attached to the back door. Prior years had the seat belt attached to the front seat, which at least kept you from having to undo your seat belt. The ride is great though. Very smooth at all speeds. The locking rear diff is very nice when pulling boat out of the water, or driving through mud. Overall, we like the truck, but don't use it much do to the very, very poor fuel economy. We purchased brand new and have had it 8 years now, with only 42k. Update: As of 08/2019, not much has changed. We took a trip to Daytona Beach pulling a trailer with 2 motorcycles on it, and averaged 10.6 mpg. Terrible fuel economy. The truck still performs very well though. It looks very nice sitting in the garage for most of it's life. We almost feel guilty driving it due to it's combined 13.1 mpg (lack of) fuel economy.

I've owned Chevys, Dodges and two F-150's. The F-150 tops them all. I am getting better than window sticker mileage out of the 5.0L engine which is surprising. I expected the mileage to be close, maybe less, but was pleasantly surprised. The seats in the XLT are cloth, but are very comfortable. All controls are within easy reach and the Sync Blue Tooth system is fantastic.
5.0 Platinum is the way to go

Bought my 2012 Platinum 5.0 V8 2 wheel drive in 2015 (and I’m still driving it daily today). Bought it with 124,000 miles and as of 1/4/21 I have 264,000 miles on it. Pros- more options on this truck then most Cadillac’s and all of the options are still functioning as they did in 2012 with the exception of 1 power running board as of this review. With regular maintenance I have had no big repairs other then normal wear and tear (tires, brakes, hoses and ironically 3 batteries). I am currently replacing the front hubs. Cons - The truck had a ticking sound coming from the motor since purchase, still does today. The transmission has been re programmed due to a recall and still has the same problem. You cannot update the Navagation after 2017 and parts for the power deployment running boards are not available, but you can replace the whole side for $1300.00. I strongly recommend yearly maintenance on the power running boards specifically lubricating all of the brackets. The truck still averages 18 miles per gallon city/hwy with premium fuel, full synthetic oil and I use the recommended antifreeze. I have owned a lot of Ford vehicles and this one is by far the best one. I’ve enjoyed this Ford so much, I have purchased stock in the company. The only complaint I have is that my truck is not in the drop down box under “model” for this review.
