2011 Ford 250 Supercab First to go was the windshield. A month old the windshield just shattered while parked overnight. I live in a very rural area so it wasn't vandalism. Second was the chrome peeling off the running boards. Third is the lock on the "cable add on" needed replacement. Fourth was the peeling of the Ford logo on the tailgate. Fifth was the paper thin rear bumper that dents as if it was paper thin. Sixth was the frozen front brake caliper at 30,000 miles. This required caliper replacement, turning the rotors, and replacing all brake pads. It happened after 36 months so Ford refused to cover it. Cost $800+. Dealer was kind enough to refund cost of the caliper. Then I was told I needed a $100 annual brake cleaning and lubing service to prevent this from happening again. Seventh is the malfunction of the passenger side rear view mirror. It stopped folding in automatically when the switch was pressed. Replacement cost of $1738. Eighth, with only 31,287 miles on it, the rear tire pressure sensor malfunctioned and had to be replaced. Cost $149. Last is rust. Everything under the car was rusty after the truck was a few weeks old. It requires constant undercoating and maintenance with somewhat costly Eastwood rust encapsulator. Ford Corporate Customer Service always treated me as though I was the enemy. I had to argue for almost every concession or coverage. By contrast, the dealer was always helpful and worked with me to resolve issues. I've owned Toyota 4Runners and Camrys most of my adult life and never experienced anything as poorly made as my Ford. The only reason I didn't buy a Tundra was because they didn't offer the Supercab configuration with a full 8' bed. Think twice about buying or leasing that Ford. Update 10/18 at 40,000 miles. Brakes started to chatter while coming to a stop. Ford dealership said I need new rotors on all wheels and pads need to be shaved or replaced. This is after 2 annual brake services since new caliper and cutting rotors 10,000 milers earlier. Cost estimate $984.00. Bought higher quality after market slotted rotors and pads and having them installed locally for $756.00 including new pads which were not in the Ford estimate.

Well it's now been 6 months with my new diesel and it's been great! The only thing I took the truck in for was an update to flash the truck to 400 hp, 800 ft. lb of torque. This new diesel has been a major success so far, don't believe some of the negative reviews as they are probably being submitted by competitors. Ford seems to really be on top of this diesel and wants feedback from its customers.

2011 Ford F-250 Super Duty Lariat 4dr Crew Cab SB (6.2L 8cyl 6A)

Driving the "KING" 250 super duty Lariat (loaded version) for 4100 miles with 6.7 power stroke and find the truck solid as a rock. This is my first Ford truck; driven GMC/Chevy products for years. Over 18 mpg around town and over 19 mpg highway. Trailer towing is cake. No smoke and no noise for the new scorpion engine. Power up the whazzoo. Six speed transmission is smooth and not overly busy. It's early but have had other new trucks back many times in less miles.

I've got 1300 miles on the truck. Today I used the manual transmission option and to my surprise pulling my 20 foot boat on a tandem trailer, windy and hilly it really did a nice job. Was able to keep the power and rpm where I wanted them. A very pleasant surprise. Great truck. 12 mpg city. About 9 mpg pulling in ugly conditions so far. Rides nice. Seats are softer. Heat and cooling seats are nice in a Lariat. Will be taking it on a 1,000 mile trip in a month to see what the mileage is.
