Used 2001 Ford F-250 Super Duty Consumer Reviews
Even God Would Have a Powerstroke
I love this truck! I have been on several Colorado and New Mexico Ski trips from Fort Worth, and never had a problem, plenty of top end speed and power. I recently moved to Nashville, Tn and two days after I got here it snowed 8inches. I found out the pure power of the Powerstroke. I hooked up to a Nashville city bus that had wrecked and was accros all the lanes of traffic and was over the curb. I put that bad boy in 4wd low and dropped it into low gear and idled away towing a full size city bus out of the middle of traffic.

work-horse
7.3 Power Stroke is a work horse. Truck starts in hot or cold weather, great fuel economy for that size rig
Buy the Dodge or Chevy
At 36,720 miles the transmission gave out leaving me on I-85. Now at 59,014 miles the drivers side front wheel hub is missed up. I call Ford 3-times and finally was told that the repair is not covered under my extended warranty. The service manager at the dealership never called me after FCC said he would. The truck pulled to right from day one and you can't adjust it. My tailgate has alway been hard to open and there is a clunking sound from passenger front that I have never found out what it is. My tires wore out at 30,000 miles and have been rotated every 3,000 miles from day one. Please tell everyone about my experiences.
Spark plug blowouts
The 5.4 Triton V-8 and the V-10 are blowing out spark plugs thru out the USA. If you google this problem you will find out there are only 3 threads for the spark plug to grip to and the heads are aluminum. Sorry no fix as a heli-coil is made of steel and it heats up ar a different temperature than aluminum, then the heli-coil also blows out. This happens on Ford super duty trucks from 1999 thru 2005, Be careful not to purchase this poorly engineered garbage. Dont believe me? Google it! ~!!
