The 2020 Ford F-150 is a perfect example of the tough yet modern full-size pickup truck. It has the guts to tow and haul at the top of its class, and it offers a range of luxury and technology features. The combination makes it one of the most versatile trucks available and justifies its status as the top-selling vehicle on the market.

2020 Ford F-150 Limited 4dr SuperCrew 5.5 ft. SB (3.5L 6cyl Turbo 10A)
I took delivery of a new 2020 on July 3, I started to hear some odd noises & slight vibrations in rear end. Ten days in the shop and no closer to a repair. They turned the rotors, then replaced the rotors, then replaced the axle...it took Ford nearly a week to authorized axle replacement and ship it to the dealer. All this took 3 weeks! The dealer gave me a loaner sedan then finally a … truck. This is not what you'd expect from a new vehicle. I now see 3 recalls, rear camera, powertrain control module, lamp camera. Hope this is not the beginning of a long list or issues due to poor manufacturing (lack of quality control).
