i own a 2005 ford f150, crew cab 4x4... i love it..only thing is the truck will go into engine failure at times truck will die, no power steering. nothing....i just simply restart the truck and problem fixed till next time... its very scary and yall should have a recall on that problem.. truck has under 93k miles. This is a saftey issue for the truck owners and may cause an accident if not fixed. other than that problem i would recomend a ford to a truck owner.
thanks!
