Nice but pricey.
Update (8/14/19). Recently sold my F150 for reasons not due to the trucks. Owned it about 14 months and put almost 16,000 miles on it. Not one problem. Drove like a brand new truck when I sold it even at 4 years old and 45,000 miles on the odometer. I liked most everything about the truck except: #1 not having a conventional transmission dipstick to check/change the fluid. Ford (and my dealer) say's lifetime fluid but don't you believe it. #2 I'm not 100% sold on the aluminum body panels. Can get very noisy while driving in the rain. They say the aircraft quality aluminum is stronger than the steel but when you tap on the panels it feels & sounds like plastic. My neighbors Silverado panels sound like metal. Kudos to Ford for being cutting edge but if I had a choice I'd choose steel over aluminum. Have you seen those youtube videos when a newer (2015+) F150 catches fire? They melt. Anyway, I loved my F150 and would buy another one in a second if needed. 2015 XLT, 5.0, V8, 4x4, 301A Pkg, FX4, 5.5 bed. Purchased used w/28k miles. Now has 40k. I am the 2nd owner. Was a certified pre-owned from our local dealer. Wife and I saw this Ruby Red beauty on the lot and fell for it instantly. It had everything we wanted except leather but better grade Katzkin leather can be installed later on. I replaced the half worn Goodyear tires with new Michelin's and so far we have driven it 12k miles without a problem. Been on several long trips. Very comfortable to drive. Love the V8 (not a ecoboost fan) and the gas mileage isn't too bad. The HVAC works great, stereo sounds good and the bluetooth works perfectly. Overall we are very pleased. I can only think of two things I don't like, first is the 5th to 4th downshift harshness everyone else talks about but it only happens every so often, not worth taking a chance the dealer would make things worse. Second is the price of these trucks. I settled for an XLT. The Lariats, King Ranches and Limited's are going for crazy money. I'm hoping it last 10 years or longer to justify the cost.

Overrated
The milage ratings are overstated. 19.5 mpg is the best it gets. The lightness of the aluminum body lends to instability, both in the wind and during towing, along with being easier to dent. I was a Ford person for most of my life (owned more than 10) but owned a Dodge and a Honda since my last one. After owning my current F150, I am reminded that poor quality and unreliability is why I switched and today's poor quality is why I shan't own another. There are just too many good vehicles made today to put up with Ford's petty and persistent failings. At less than 23,000 miles, the speedometer quit working. Cruise control same story. The Dodge had almost 200K miles and the Honda 268K and none of the chicken s#@+ things happened like this Ford has had. Uncomfortable and hard to maintain the cleanliness of the cab (the fabric stains easily) is also annoying. All in all, (as you can see) I am not happy with Ford.) Updated 12/2017.....Sold it because I was so disappointed. POOR resale value.

Solid and dependable
Purchased the truck used with 32k. My supercab (extended cab) has the 5.0 with the FX4 package. The FX4 makes for a stiff ride sometimes, but I have no serious complaints about that. The 5.0 has been no trouble whatsoever and delivers plenty of power. Gas mileage is about what I'd expect with a truck this size -about 18mpg combined. Looking forward to many more miles!

This truck is well blended for comfort and utility
It has a lot of torque and it goes when you put your foot down. I am still learning a lot of tech options. The first few fill ups have been averaging 17-18 mpg which I think is great for a 5 liter V8. The supercab is comfortable for four people. We have had five for short trips without an issue. We went for the supercab so the truck would fit in the garage with a 6.5' box. So far I am very happy with our decision to buy this truck.

Hits and misses
I actually have an XLT Supercrew 2.7L Ecoboost FX4. Love the quiet ride, smooth and powerful acceleration from the 2.7L Ecoboost and the interior is pleasing. The FX4 package definitely has a stiffer busy ride on an empty bed - would have preferred regular 4X4 but they only had FX4s in the configuration I was looking for. Although still in break in phase, fuel economy is disappointing so far - averaging about 16.2 mpg on very gentle mixed driving. Read the Edmunds review on the fuel economy on the 2.7L which they have found to be well short of the EPA rating. I think it ends up being maybe 1 mpg better than the V8. Given the negligible price difference between the 2.7 V6 vs the V8, I would have purchased the V8 instead had I know about the poor real world fuel economy. Also, when just purchased, I already noticed surface rust on the rear differential housing and a couple of other small areas. Worried about how well the rust issue will hold up in the long tem.
