Question for 2000 7700 owners
Aloha gang,
I own a 2000 F150 XL 4wd 7700 56,052 mi. bought it this past Feb. 2004 for $16,800, did a CARFAX and has an excellent rating. No problems yet...knock on wood...proper maintenance and moderate off roading. My question to 7700 owners of the same year and same model. Have you had any minor or major problems with you truck yet? I'm just curious to know. Thanks

Well, my truck isn't a 2000, neither is it a 7700, but......
The only things that are different about the 7700 package are the tranny, the rear axle, and 7-lug hubs. I haven't heard of many major problems with the newer trucks other than some of the usual stuff. The tranny in yours is heavier than those of us who don't have the 7700, and so is the rear axle. With proper care, your truck shouldn't have any major problems until you are well over 100,000 miles.
