#2 Haven't have any issues with my 2018, except for strange shift patterns going uphill in towing mode. So I turned off towing mode.

#3 This is a 'Blanket' recall and doesn't affect all the vehicles produced. They just expanded the original 2011-2013 to the 2014 model year for the recall issued in 2016 for the transmission solenoid valve assembly. Only affects certain assembly dates from two plants.

Total number of vehicles affected for 2014 will run around 5,000.

#4 Same people who frantically screech Boeing Boeing Boeing don't want to hear that a lot of people think Ford = junk.

#6 I rather have a Ford truck than a Chevy truck. Enuff said.

#7 Seeking Cure For Ignorance the first truck I owned was a 1951 Ford F1 with the flathead V-8. I bought it in 1976. Great truck. I've owned Chevrolets and Fords since then and currently own a 1996 Dodge 2500 that I bought new. It still runs great. I've found as long as they are maintained they generally work very well.

#8 Our 2013 F-150 CrewCab already had the trans recall work done, no issues since. Somehow I think the Burg Hard Hit note is accurate.

In our neck of the woods, rural Carson Valley Nevada, my sense is more than half the locals have either a Pick-Up truck or SUV or both like us, a fit for the horses and cattle throughout most of the valley.

#9 Don't see a lot of Ford 'Lightnings' in that area I'll bet, NoMore.

#11 Not the Drink Up! thread we deserve for the debate, but the tread we need.
