I don't watch click bait. But my current truck is the only Ford truck that needed to go in the shop under warranty out of the last three I owned. So can only go on my own personal experience which says no to any increase in quality.
However my wife's 2017 Expedition has 72K on it and has zero repairs to date other than replacing the battery twice. Original brakes as well.

I never buy the first 2 years of a design but this one I am glad I waited until 4th year of the design, between the lack of clarify if the transmission issues were fixed by 23 model year, the one side dummy hub of much of '24 model year, and the AC issue that 24-25 MY units, as well as the required driver nannies that were mandatory on STX up to '25 MY. '26 as it is checks all my boxes and first time I ordered a truck in the fall.

Now I will probably eat crow come this summer with my AC, LOL.
