New Truck Buyer Disappointment

There are several things I would like to cover here of all aspects of this truck. But let me begin with my purchasing process. I was so excited when I test drove this truck. It was so spacious and comfortable and the price was right so I got it. I am now about 2 months into buying it and I wish I would have got a Dodge. For one, the electronics are as low as can be in a modern vehicle. There is no heat seater, the backup camera is smaller than my hand, no Sirius XM, etc. The electronics are basic, so don't expect anything wonderful there. The AutoStart/AutoStop that Ford is putting in so many of their vehicles today SUCKS. I can not complain enough about this freaking thing. The vehicle will not remember that I turned AutoStart off, so by default, Ford has it on. So every time I start my truck I have to turn it off so I don't destroy the starter every 10 months. Another thing: I just changed my oil for the first time and the drain plug and filter could not have been designed in a more stupid place. They drain plug has some stabilizer bar 2 inches in front of it so good luck getting your hand in there. And when you do finally get the plug loose, oil shoots out and hits the bar and splatters all over the place so make sure you have plenty of rags and paper towels handy. The filter sits right on top of some metal body work and has tubes hanging right around it so it is hard to turn and oil falls all over the metal piece there. I just had the service engine light come on and plugged in a handy code tool to see what the error was. Turns out there is a misfire in one of my cylinders and some other problem with the cam shaft. Overall this truck has been a nightmare and am possibly thinking about selling. Sad thing is, this was my first truck and I had such high expectations. So disappointed

Don’t waste your money! The engine and ten speed transmission are completely awful. I’ve owned the truck four months and it’s been in the shop twice!

Like the title says I got 25,000 km on my 2018 F-150 xlt 5.0l and have had no issues with it asides from all the recalls from doors freezing to the block heater and the seatbelt thing I do love my truck I have had no issues transmission is great motor has power like no tomorrow the only thing I do have to say is when auto starting the truck it has a clunk been almost 2 years and I haven’t been stranded or had been to the dealer for anything other then oil change and the recalls love this truck All that being said would I buy another? nope.... I’d get a 2500 duramax Buddy of mine got his the exact same day has a little over 30,000 on it and it’s only been in for oil changes gets better fuel economy and all then I do pulls a tandem enclosed trailer all day long max loaded gets 19L/100 my F-150 is sitting at 23!

2018 Platinum has more than I ever imagined

This truck is loaded with features I didn't know existed. The 3.5 L V6 with the Eco boost is hands-down the best pick up truck in the world. Featuring the best highway mileage plus the ability to tow 12,000 lbs with more torque than anything except for a deisel. Its the best of both worlds and a truck for the future.
