Bye Bye Power Wagon

God that f150 is an ugly truck...prob saw 10 of em today...good luck tho...people like em

The wheels were terrible. I'd agree with that. It's why they are gone now. To each their own. Peace out.

Way to think like a leader!

Well I might be back in one. Momentary lapse in judgement. Haven't owned a 1/2 ton for a while. I feel like I change trucks like I change underwear. Trying to get back into an 18 with full leather.

I had a FERD for 18mo, with all of the 10 speed joint venture W/GM what a POS, having it flashed several times to a new valve body, never again!!!
Welcome back!!!

Lol, I have a 2016 F150 5.0 fleet vehicle.

-Check oil- never.
-Change oil every 8k with the cheapest oil the quick lube puts in it.
-150k and all they have done is brakes, tires and oil change.

It goes through hell in the rust belt and no corrosion issues. It sees off road conditions as much as pavement.

They don’t like to be lifted, watch the torque converter as they have issues. Transmission makes a weird groan noise every time it down shifts.

As far as the Power Wagons, bought mine in 2020 before the prices went crazy. No way I would buy one now, they are stupid $$$.

Well everything just went to hell on the F-150. Just started oil consumption at 1/2 quart every fill up. All the 10 speeds in the fleet are needing rebuilt at 120k. 6 speed is holding up well.

Lost out on the 18. It was a sweet setup too. 37's and carli commuter system. Wife was a bit angry so I balked and missed it. I did find a 17 with lower miles with leather and luxury as well. Ordered with no decals which sucks so I'm trying to track those down. Has a compressor setup on it with air bags which is nice too. Will need the Thuren treatment at some point. Rambox just like my 18. In a way the 17 is better though because you don't have to worry about the bypass harness with Alpha OBD.

Ever think about a Prius, maybe a minivan, Honda Fit?

Have you looked at the 2500 rebel as well. Looks like there are many on dealers lots these days and maybe some deals to be had
