I gotta hand it to Ford, this truck of mine (in sig) will never stop amazing me with its quality and comfort. The wife and I along with four other adults went out for dinner last night, the drive alone was 51 miles one way. Dark country roads, snow everywhere, heat on music piped in from a flash drive, etc., but get this,........... the outside temps was at -17* (below zero w/a 10 mph wind). It was so comfortable inside the truck that no one wanted to get out, lol. But I'm constantly reminded of my old truck that I owned for 18 yrs (also in sig) and how it would have performed, well we wouldn't have made the trip............period. It was loud, heater could not keep up, poor insulation and rode like a dump truck. I hope others enjoy their trucks like I do, I believe Ford went over the top with this new design. Oh btw, on the way home one of my passengers said "what a nice truck".

 

Yep, that is until the windshield keeps cracking, the pinch welds and cab lights keep leaking, oh I forgot the broken sunroof tracks and the corrosion on the battery hold down and tow hooks...lets not even discuss the frozen door locks and latches and almost forgot the water pump that went at 27K and the newly occurring death wobble. Thank god all these issues are not affecting my truck but some are and I was really happy with the build quality at first... but now starting to question some things, BTY I took delivery Dec 2017. Keep reading the posts and you will see some reoccuring complaints.

 

This is the Internet, you will find 10 complaints (or more) for every positive comment about any product or service it seems. You may see some "reoccuring" complaints on this forum, but what percentage of trucks are we really talking about here!? Depends on what complaint we are talking about as each is vastly different, but I would guess a pretty low percentage for most. You said yourself, your truck isn't affected by all of them.

 

I'm glad your happy with your truck. So am I with mine. Nothing is perfect but my 2017 F350 ccsb 6.7 is close.
Best truck out there.

 

My personal experience and not just internet talk...

frozen door lock mechanism
mice nest in cabin air filter
paint swirl marks from dealer
Water intrusion into rear wire harness

but otherwise it's great. Lol

 

So you think Ford or the dealer put the mice in there.

 

 

12,000 miles so far, my Truck's been perfect ..

 

My reason for posting about my truck...........mainly because my last truck ('97 F-350) was my ride for 18 years and before that I owned a 1975 F-100, had that for 19 yrs. Needless to say what a difference, thats all. Not trying to stir the pot for the unhappy owners. My first new vehicle purchase in my entire life, and at the age of 59, I'm impressed with it.

 

Would you have a link? I searched but only found the universal and the older SD's.

 

Cracks me up when somebody starts rattling off problems some of the Ford trucks have had because we all know that every other auto maker builds perfect vehicles with zero problems.

 

 

 

 

Had the same experience with my truck. I bought it on a Friday. Spent from about 10am to about 4pm getting the deal done and waiting for the truck to be delivered from the dealers "other" location 3 hours away. Then hit the road and towed about 4 hours before stopping for the night. The next morning I did 12 hours. Truck was awesome.

A month later, my wife and I and my daughter and her husband all drove 14 hours to western Florida. In complete comfort. Everybody loved using the truck for the trip. We had choices of my wife's mid sized SUV, my sedan or the truck. The truck was by far the best choice.

It has held up well too. 16 months of ownership and I am just as happy.
