Actually, I believe that the recall did include 03s F150s. I'm looking for a thorough site for you all.

It appears that the recall includes some '03 and '04 F-series super duty pickups, as well as Excursion SUV's for a bad battery cable connection. It is the cable issue which would lead to a fire.

Ok, here is the article site from the Detroit News, originally found by Jeff Schira, with the news article dated yesterday July 8th:

Luke, this article is still a little vague. It doesn't give F150 the mark, it's stating F-series. I believe that when they mentioned the f-series and excursion that would be because those models (F-250, 350 & Excursion) both share the same front end and engine styles and that would explain why they are both having problems with the ground cable, same mounting characteristics. If you do find another article that specify F150 please post. Thanx for the info too. :-X22
