I have a 2005 Super Crew and after driving home from work, which is all city driving, I get a terrible smell, almost a burning type smell. Took it to the dealer and they said it is new and it is just burning off some of the chemicals that Ford uses. I only have 1100 miles on the truck, so I wasn't sure if the dealer was telling the truth or didn't want to bother with it. Has anyone else had this problem?

 

sounds right. I have noticed this on a lot of new trucks, and cars I have owned. just the paint and everything setting up from the heat that it has not been introduced to yet. (or at least that is what I fig it is)

 

Brand new trucks do need time to burn off. It shouldnt concern you.

 

the smell is from the exhuast system. it will go away very soon
