Any Ford F150 Owners here?
I picked up a used 2019 F150 Platinum 4x4 with 18k miles on it, a few weeks ago. Wow is it nice!!! It has the 3.5 ecoboost and a 36 gal gas tank. It moves out! I found myself doing 77 in a 55 not too long ago.
This will replace my 4Runner for road trips / longer drives. I already have a Cat Shield / Skid Plate for it and plan to pick up some used Ford Raptor 17 inch wheels, 33 inch All Terrain tires, and a small 2 inch lift kit.

Why on Gods green earth would I want to spell anything backwards. Sometimes Ma and I use pig latin around the great grand kids. BTW, my first Ford truck was a '34. My Dad paid $35.00 back in '57 and it came with a spare 85 engine.

After buying my 2018 days before the plague started (Feb 29, 2020), I have been very satisfied.
The 2.7 EB pulls my boat like its not even there, the acceleration is awesome and it rides nice. Gas mileage is unbelievable. I've spent more at the carwash than the mechanic. Over the 60k I've owned it, it's had the oil changed and a new set of tires.
Your mileage may vary.

1st vehicle 61' Ford Econoline. (3 on the tree.) Next Ford was a 95' Ranger. (Great truck) Owned a modified 99' Mustang GT. (Great car.) Next Ford was a 2000 Ranger. (Lots of problems.)
Nothing really bad to say about Ford's. Just tweakin' Y'all. 😁
Enjoy your new truck. 👍

I have always bought nothing but Fords. We have an Excursion and an Expedition. Last year, I sold my F250 and wanted to buy another pickup. While looking for another F250, I saw a Dodge Ram sitting in a used truck center. Just for the hell of it, We took it for a ride. SOLD. I love this truck. Metallic Brown paint. After driving this for a year, back and forth to the mountain house, I won't ever buy another pickup, except a Dodge.
By the way, even though I am a Ford guy, I will admit, I have had Nothing but problems with every Ford motor we have owned. I think that is why I switched to a Dodge. I definitely will never own a Chevy. I just don't like the looks of them.

Ford lost my business over the 5.4 cam chain phasers. Now driving a '21 Tundra and consider it an excellent driving and riding truck.

As a matter of fact, it was.

Let me guess.. 5.4 .. Right..??
It wasn't just the spark plugs and the phasers. The transmission. The 4X4 system. (Yea, it's vacuum operated) The 4X4 hubs.

I had a couple of Effing 150's and will NEVER own another. I even hate to ride in Son's current work pickup (Ford).

Mpg showing on the dash when bought was 15. I'm getting 17.8 now around town. I think it will improve. I took it over to the local Tire Shop / Oil Change place, to use there lift, and add a Cat Shield / Transmission Skid Plate to it. It prevents a thief from getting a sawsall on the cats:
The owner of the shop was out running errands. His 19 year old helper and I installed the skid. The kid wanted to give up early on trying to install the skid as no instructions came with it and the online instructions weren't very good. I coaxed him along and we both knocked it.
I bought a set of four 17 inch Raptor wheels off facebook market place.
A friend offered to sell me his 285/70R17 Falken Wildpeak AT3W's (5 tires) off his Jeep Gladiator for $500. I'm going to take him up on it. Then I plan to add this leveling kit:
14-20 F150 4WD Rancho QuickLift Stage 2 Package S3M-1418RANCHOSTG2
The item you are trying to purchase is currently out of stock.Please enter your name, email, and phone number below. We will contact you as soon as this product is available.I would also like to add a front hitch receiver bumper. These 2 are in the running.

I've had 4 of these already and think they are the best trucks on the market. I had Eco-Boost engines on the first 2 models but changes to the 5.0 V-* on the last 2 units because of lost gas mileage during winter/ cold weather. The problem is this past month I was going to trade again (every 2 years) but Ford did away with all the major incentive programs, so as to dramatically increase the price of the truck (almost twice the trade cost of my previous vehicle). I have since decided to wait on the purchase due to the trade cost and financing rates. I thought companies were trying to move inventory, but I guess I was WRONG on this one. Plus they told me it would take 4 months for a new delivery on 2023. Carry over 2022 trucks with no mileage was No Deal either. I don't think sales are going to be booming!!

Are ye daft man? Fix or repair daily. Though it has been over 40 years since I owned one. Young and dumb I was.
There's gotta be one in the bunch. We're all talking about how much we love our F-150s (I have a 2014 Lariat with 125k) and he's going to throw shade with his 40 year old (most likely beat up) truck story. Sheesh. Oh well, good to see the forum hasn't changed while I've been gone.

I have a 2017 F-150 XL STX 3.5 4X4 ECO. Has 165,000 miles. Change the oil when the light comes on and never run anything but 87 octane 10% ethanol. I would have traded it due to miles a couple years ago but newer ones are hard to come by.

Thanks for the welcome backs, guys! Glad to see the old names still around!

Ain't nothin' sweeter soundin' than a 239 flathead V-8 with headers through a pair of red Woodpecker glass packs. Well, maybe a Jake Brake on a four and a quarter going down a long grade holdin' back 80,000.

With a few thousandths shaved off the heads and all fed through a Weiand 6 pack... Damn I miss that old car!

My F150 was named “the big red dog” by my kids.
It was retired a few years ago, but solid truck no doubt.
