What's the reliability like on these?

What are they like to live with?

Cost/availability for wear and tear parts?

I have had a 1998 since 01. Good truck. Every odd problem I've ever had with it I have diagnosed on www.f150online.com.

It is a 4x4 extended cab with a 4.6. I have never had better mileage than 16 mpg U.S.

Hello Chaps

Apologies for my user name, but after 4 attempts to join using more traditional name choices I gave up and chose something I knew nobody else would want.....

I have put 6000 miles on a 2008 F150 with zero problems. MPG.......(what everyone asks!) 100 miles to £30 seems to be about average.

The Ford badge didn't do much for me originally, but very pleased so far. If my last decent motor a 993 C2S was placed as an either/or choice I'd have the truck every time!

Thinking of a Raptor to replace in a year or two.

Thanks for the welcome V8mate.

The best thing about getting a pick up this time of year is that with a taurpaulin on the back you've go a pool as well!
