Pros: Solid and well built, Comfortable, Great sound system, Sharp Looking.
Cons: Full Sized trucks Cost a lot and Drink gas! Ouch
The Bottom Line: Highly recommend the truck for its quality and its feel.
A few years back (2002) I went in to a Ford dealer looking for a truck. After seeing the prices of the F-150 I had to settle for a Ranger. After saving some money and the Ranger holding its value fairly well, I was finally in position to buy my F-150. ...

Pros: Roomy, quiet, acceptable fuel mileage and very reasonable price.
Cons: Shoulder harness a little tight.
The Bottom Line: Possibly the most satisfying purchase I have ever made. Ford has always treated me very, very well.
Let me say up front that I am a loyal Ford owner. I didn't spend a whole lot of time checking out other brands. Plus I loved the styling and engineering of the new model Ford F-150. I didn't really need to buy this vehicle but I was ready after five ...

Pros: Power, in-town handling, comfort, current price
Cons: Nasty steering shudder at highway speeds
The Bottom Line: Nice truck - if it's one that doesn't shudder. Test the EXACT truck you're buying.
Shopping around to replace our minivan with some form of pickup. Looked at the very attractive deals now offered by Ford. I'd driven a 4.6L Supercab months ago. The engine was little weak, but the dealer had no 5.4L version available to try. Quite ...

Pros: I love the interior. I think its one of the sharpest looking trucks to date
Cons: Unfixable shudder, boxs shakes uncontrollably, 5.4L Pings under mild load. Seat uganomics are wrong.
The Bottom Line: Don't buy this truck. Inhearant box vibration. Weak 5.4L engine
Ok I am frustrated with Ford, but I think anyone thinking of buying the new F150 Super Crew FX4 should go in with their eyes open. 05 body styling is by far one of the best. I love the lines, the body fit and finish. I am a little disapointed with ...

HI, I had for many years a Toyota and switching back and forth between that truck and a GMC. A few years ago, I bought a used Ford Ranger, a 1999 for my wife. I hated it. At that time, I also traded my GMC in for (this was a mistake...) for a Nissan ...

Pros: Quiet Quiet Quiet! Very good light to mid-weight tow vehicle.
Cons: EPA estimate is optimistic.
The Bottom Line: Excellent value for a capable quiet hauler.
We've had our F150 4WD Supercrew Lariat for 9 months now and the only complaint we have about it is that the interior smells a little 'off'. We aren't quite sure what we are smelling, but it's obviously nothing organic, and frequently imperceptible with ...

Pros: Nice truck to look at
Cons: not so nice to drive in
The Bottom Line: Once Ford figures out what is causing the problem that has been plaquing these vehicles, I would recommend everyone get one
not sure how to post to 2005, but as far as comfort, this truck is my dream. It has everything a women wants in a truck, without sacraficing. Lots of room for both passengers, front and back, as well as the driver. Everything is within reach, and the set ...

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: Yes
Pros: Nice looking, value for $, feels well put together
Cons: Very annoying A/C, very thirsty engine (13 MPG, 4.6L)
The Bottom Line: Yes, I'd recommend it if you can get past the clicking and hissing A/C sounds!
This truck has a lot of positives about it but a few negatives kind of kill the buzz. After doing a month of research on the various fullsize trucks available I finally settled on the F150. It provided, in my opinion, the most value for the money. I ...

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: Yes
Pros: No problems. $15,000 for basic truck w/V8 was a bargain.
Cons: Unusual for me but I can't think of any. Maybe the brakes.
The Bottom Line: Surprisingly I have had NO problems with this truck. It drives great and is afFORDable. I seldom rate anything 5-star, but the Basic F-150 is worth it.
I have had NO problems to speak of with my 2005 F-150. I took it back in 2006 for a new gas cap because the inspector said it failed the pressure test. The only other slight problem is when starting in cool weather (below 40 deg), the fan belt idler ...

The Bottom Line: Buy with caution, make sure your vehicle doesn't have the engine problems
Have had Fords all my life , so when I finally wanted to reward myself for a hard fought promotion at work, A new F150 crew cab was a logical choice. I have never had a new truck before so I sold my 97 F350 and bought a new 2005 F150 XLT crew cab ( full ...

Pros: Build quality. materials, cabin design including the quietness, layout 3 valve 5.4 engine and ride.
Cons: Gas consumption, possibly a 5 speed automatic would help here. Nothing else.
The Bottom Line: I would recommend this truck for safety, quality, design, quietness and ride comfort.
I previously leased a 2003 F150 SuperCrew. My lease was coming due and the big decision was what to do? Should I get a new truck or buy out the existing lease. With only 30K'S on my current truck and no real problems except for the 6 disc cd giving me ...

I had a 1988 F-150 that finally passed away and needed a new truck for work so I bought a brand new 2005 F-150 XLT 4WD 4.6L and hope I didn't make a mistake. Pros: nice style, comfortable inside cab and seats, nice stereo, rear cab space, lighter tail ...

Pros: Aesthetics,price,quiet interior,the right balance of useful extras, and Ford's high quality of construction.
Cons: 4.6 liter has less low-end speed than I expected.
The Bottom Line: Buy it. Style, roominess, utility, quality, price.
I recently traded my 2002 Tacoma for an 05 F150. The Tacoma was my 1st small truck and was reliable, economical transportation - but I needed more room and towing power sufficient to pull my 19' runabout. I considered GM first because of the "GM ...

Pros: A solid well built truck.
Cons: None.
The Bottom Line: Buy the F150, it really is the best 3/4 ton on the road.
I have been a GM man my entire life, but I recently purchased a 2005 Ford F150 Supercrew FX4 off-road. I have a friend that works as a salesman at the Ford dealership close to were I live. I needed a new truck so I asked him what they had in maybe a ...
