Seems like all or most of the posts are people bitching about problems with their trucks. Anyone problem free and happy?

I did, 6,000 miles so far. Same with my 2010 115,000 miles and my 2015 168,000 miles when I traded them in. A lot of real issues are posted and I feel for those guys, but on the other hand lot of truck issues posted seem to be “user” issues.

Other than the windshield recall, the screen flickering 2 or 3 times, and some Android Auto troubles it's been great. I disagree with their lawyer's view on the camera usage but that was a design, not a problem with my truck. Have around 2,500 miles on it.

Despite the need for a battery replacement due to unknown problem, I am happy with my truck. This after 6+ months of ownership.

The reality is, problems are going to arise after the launch of any new gen vehicle. Factor in the COVID issue and that just adds to it.

Almost 1400 miles and not one problem. Well, maybe one. I have a tiny bubble on the clear bra.

I only have a few hundred kilometers on mine, but I am very pleased, especially with the fuel mileage. It rode very rough on a country rode, but then I discovered that there was 45psi in the tires. I dropped the pressure to 38psi, and it rides much better.

Man I haven’t had one issue besides a lug nut that fell off at about the 380 mile mark. Dealer mailed me a new one and all is good. It has some rust on the rear diff and no dead battery, the air blows ice cold and will set you free.

And today i had a tailwind coming home from the coast and averaged 28.3 for a stretch of highway towing a Gheenoe.

All of the “problems” I had were centered around the radio and dash
All of which went away on their own…or the over the air update

this is my first Ford and my first new truck. I am very pleased with my truck. I am even pleased with the dealership experience if you can believe that.

the truck functions perfectly.

Just had to go in for a faulty Brake Booster Assembly. Dealer hooked me up with a loaner and will have the repairs done in 2-3 days.

4K miles and nothing major. Just the alarm issue that needed to be addressed at the dealer, and the undercarriage rust. Mechanically it’s been good and a pleasure to drive.

I love mine. No issues. Still under 1k miles which makes me sad because I absolutely love driving it. But, Covid telework limits my need to drive.

I do often go to the store when there is no real need just to drive it.

I don't get close to 24mpg. But, I drive it like I stole it. Just like my Mustang years ago.

My only issue is not a truck issue. It is a short garage issue. I have been asking all of my family for a garage extender for Christmas so I can get the last foot and a half inside ?

This thing is freaking huge!
