I've only had good luck with the close quarters plastic ring types. The scissor types suck. I got a full set at harbor freight. Work every time.

Are you sure the 2010 needs the special tool? On my 2005 you just push in on a blue coupler and pull on the line, it comes right off.

I'm not familiar with the 2010s but my 2005 F150 had an inline fuel filter that needed one of these. If this is what youre looking for PM me and I will mail you my set. I dont need them anymore.

Where did you get this set? I have tried various sets, and I can't seem to get the front clip to releasae. These look more durable than what i have been able to find.

I found those on google, but mine are almost identical. I bought them at autozone. They were the second set I bought. The first was plastic as failed miserably at getting the fuel line off. So I went back and got these metal ones and they worked in about 5 seconds.
