总的来说，这是我拥有过的最好的卡车
我在中西部长大，和爸爸一起在油田、农场和牧场工作，开各种型号的卡车。1978年买了我的第一辆福特卡车——一辆1973年产的阶梯车。拥有其他几个品牌。接下来是一辆1992年的Ranger XLT，这是一笔大买卖，他拥有了11年。我把它卖给朋友的那天，它就像新的一样牢固。从那以后，我拥有了几辆豪华轿车和suv, 2016年退休时，我买了F-150 XLT Super Cab，后轮驱动，配备V-6 Ecoboost发动机。最好的引擎!这辆卡车开了75000英里后绝对没问题。只有两个非常小的召回修复。一个拨浪鼓也没有(像我女朋友的崭新的讴歌RDX一样坚固)。 I live in Arizona, so I appreciate the awesome A/C output. Finally had a brake job done last month and only needed rear brake pads and rotors turned. One battery change after four years, oil changes every 5K miles and the first set of tires lasted over 40K miles. I feel like I could easily get 200K out of this truck.
这是我开过的问题最多的车
这辆卡车很不错，但是从我买的那天起，我就一直有油底壳漏水的问题。它已经被固定了三次，现在正在进行第四次。我对这个问题非常不满，但最让我不满的是纳维斯和凯尔·巴斯对我的态度。我可以相信农村不是站在我身后，因为这气体是一个问题，因为我买了这辆车的一天。
非常好的购买——有史以来最好的决定
在拥有了一辆07年的福特F-150 XLT后，车架已经生锈了，无法在路上行驶，我想要一模一样的车，只是更新一点。我发现2016年的F-150 XLT正在出售，并研究了它，并在2021年购买了它。对模型的更新还不错。风格:好!他们给身体很多新的边缘和曲线，使它看起来很棒!室内设计:好!他们使一些舒适和功能更容易，更多的“科技”让司机惊叹。功能:除了FORD取消了音频的AUX端口，这让我很沮丧，我不得不花30美元买一个FM发射器，它很棒!你可以用遥控器锁车尾门，这是我在07年从未想过的。我总是用车尾门上的钥匙来锁它，而且只有当我有值钱的东西藏在车盖下面的时候。 Now I don't even have to think about it. There's a sensor that lets you know when the gate is down. So, now I don't have to stop and double check. Value: I got it used at a dealership locally and it was marked down significantly. It was an import from Canada so the strength of the US dollar Vs Canadian dollar helped keep the cost well below Kelly Bluebook. It was the exact truck that I wanted. I found an 8 Cylinder model without the Eco boost. The break pedal doesn't kill the engine. There are 6 gears now, which the dash shows you which one you're in when driving. The 07 only had like 4 Gears. I think the 6th gear makes for a smoother ride at 70-75 MPH on the highway. It also keeps the RPM's down when accelerating and it must have other benefits. I believe lower RPM's means the engine will be stressed out less and will last longer. I just paid $1400 for an aftermarket undercoating service because the 07 rusted out. I bet that if I had undercoated the 07, it would have outlived me. These trucks are made from TOP quality hearty beefy parts that are made to last. I've only had the 2016 F-150 for a few weeks so far so Reliability is still up in the air, but so far, no issues at all. Some times the back up sensor turns itself off and the "miles" switch to "Km" which is a mild annoyance. The performance: The pick up is there when you need it. The smooth acceleration from a stop is nice. Don't hammer it, rather press firmly and let the truck change gears on it's own. Automatic transmissions are meant to let the inertia of the vehicle get up to proper velocity before changing gears. It's a big heavy truck, not a drag racer. The acceleration reflects its function. It can tow a big boat. It won't compete with a Mustang. The Aluminum panels: Non-Magnetic. Don't bother trying to stick a magnet to it, you'll get nothing. Not that I have a ton of Magnet things. Funeral flags. Company decals, stuff like that. Aluminum still corrodes! Take the same care as steel body panels. They're lighter so you've decreased the weight. But it dents easier. But it also fixes easier too. The Jury is still out on how long they last. So, If you're looking for a truck that will meet all expectations of a truck, give the 16' F-150 xlt a shot. For towing, go 8 cylinders. My Uncle bought a 2016' F-150 with 6 Cylinders and turbo for towing his camper and he said that he has to floor it to get it and the camper up and down the mountain roads. SO heads up on towing. They say yes it can, but what they mean is within weight and grade limits. It's comfortable and smooth. It's quick when you need to zip, and can pull and carry a ton of stuff. Ford makes nice trucks. I highly recommend.
