Everyday I wake up just so happy with the Antimatter Blue with BAP. Looks so good in every lighting and weather. Washed and waxed, so the beading of water looks cool imo

We picked up this gorgeous 2019 F150 last Friday for my husband. We love it! We traded his 2014 Mustang due to health issues resulting in him being unable to drive a manual anymore.

What's our take on the 2.7L? What should I be watching out for, and what should I pay extra attention to, aside from typical maintenance?

2023 Ford F-150 Tremor 401a

This is my brother’s truck, wondering what you guys think the damage is?

2016 XLT 2.7l w/ 150k miles. I've been having this issue for awhile now. The first part of the video is the 3rd gear issue and the second part is driving uphill, with no change to how I am pressing the gas pedal. I have replaced and tried these so far:

• throttle body
• all sensors for the air intake
• driver side turbo (trying to fix limp mode on highway)
• a new turbo pressure solenoid (which I swapped back because the new one gave me a P1015 code)
• new spark plugs
• PCM re-learn for throttle body
• gas pedal position calibrate

I have aftermarket intake and exhaust, but this was going on before I changed those. It is also going into limp mode with P0299 (turbo underboost) when on the highway randomly which I think may be related to this. I haven't replaced the passenger side turbo.

If I try and gas it through the rpm drop the truck lags and goes into limp mode with the same code, and will sometimes go into limp mode going up big hills. While in 5th gear my RPMs will jump up quickly when I barely press down on the gas pedal like at the start of the second clip.

It seems to do it more often when it is hot out, and almost never went into limp mode this past winter.

I was wondering if anyone has seen this before, or knows what might be wrong? I have scoured f150 forums for the past 2 years off and on and nothing seems to be doing it.

Picked this up the other day, I don’t think I got the best deal but definitely not a bad one other, feel free to shame.

2021 F-150 Platinum Powerboost
76k original sticker, 95k miles
I paid 38,500 for the truck, 3k registration fees, and carried 3k negative equity from previous car which was mechanically totaled or I would have kept it longer.
Total all in is 44,500 which is steep for me but still within budget. My goal is to tackle it 1k at a time until it’s gone besides that this is the nicest vehicle I have ever owned.

I'm trying to track down a noise on my 2018 F-150 XLT 5.0L (2WD) with about 170,000 miles.

Here are the symptoms.

-Only happens when the engine is cold. Completely goes away once the truck is fully warmed up.

-Most noticeable around 2,000 RPM.

Happens during acceleration through that RPM range

-Sounds like a metallic rapid chatter. Almost like a zip tie or baseball card hitting bicycle spokes.

-I can reproduce it by lightly holding the throttle around 2,000 RPM while in Drive. It doesn't seem to do it at all when just revving in Park.

No noticeable engine vibration, no check engine light, and the truck otherwise runs great.

So far I've considered a loose heat shield or exhaust bracket. (couldn't find anything)

I came across a few posts mentioning spark knock, but since it only happens cold and disappears once everything is hot, I'm not convinced that's it.

Has anyone with a high-mileage 5.0 experienced something similar? If so, what ended up being the cause?

Thanks in advance.

2019 F150 2.7 ecoboost STX - 201k miles

Hi guys, my 2019 has started the death spiral of the torque converter rumbles that has advanced to very poor shifting. The truck has been maintained well and this is the only mechanical issue. I know transmission rebuild or replacement is going to run me 7-9k which is most of the worth of the vehicle. I do not want to buy a new truck, but I don’t want to pay 9 grand for something else to fail and now I’m out 9k with a truck that’s worth nothing. Has anyone been in a similar situation- if so what decision did you make/do you regret it? Thank you.

I recently discovered a StartX installed on my used 2017 F-150 (wasn’t listed equipment from the national used retailer I purchased through). Lock-unlock-lock does start the engine & the cluster pops the “to drive, turn key on” notification so the truck knows it’s been started remotely - however I don’t have the remote start settings & no accessories cut on.

I don’t have a Windows laptop so FORscan isn’t an option & my dealer understandably declined to mess with it given the remote start is 3rd party.

Figuring I’m out of luck unless I can find an independent shop with FORscan, but might be cheaper to just buy a used laptop. Any other solutions I’m missing?

2017 XLT 3.6L Ecoboost, 136k

Hey guys - I recently purchased a 2025 F150 and installed Eibach 2” coilovers with 285 65r20 Ridge Grapplers tires - after the install I am now getting vibration in the accelerator pedal when driving - doesn’t matter if I am accelerating or not and I am not feeling any vibration in seat, steering wheel, floorboard, etc.

The tires were road force balanced and full alignment has been completed after coilover and tires were installed - anyone else have this issue or have any other ideas on what to check?

Thanks all!

I have a 2016 f150 with the 6r80. Last time the transmission’s oil was changed was 69k miles ago. I’ve read that it needs to be changed at 150k according to Ford, the transmission shop says every 100k and a lot of owners say 60k or 30k. Would it be “bad” to change it since people say changing out old oil isn’t good and will cause the transmission to slip?

I bought my 2016 new and I just rolled over 327,000 miles. No major repairs (most serious was like a throttle body or something )gotta replace a coil pack about every time I get on it to pass someone (it took many coil packs for me to stop doing that). Leaks a little out of the valve cover gasket...Check engine light has been on for 150k+ miles, last I checked maybe 10k miles ago it was still only the catalytic converter (ignorance is bliss)...been running amsoil extended life since I can remember. I think I've hit 4 deer in it. I've never been a brand loyalty guy when it comes to trucks but im sold for life. I'm sure it's a ticking time bomb now, but it's never left me stranded. Anyone else tack on the miles on these newer ones?

Hi all hope you’re well. I’m looking at a 2023 f150 xlt 300a super crew with a 6.5 bed, I went to see the car yesterday, it was a lot more base model than what I’ve seen online since mostly online I’ve seen 302a and those numbers didn’t mean anything to me until yesterday 😭. If anybody had the same model, if you’ve done any upgrades / mods let me know ! Thank you

I’m a little distraught, I had my hopes set on a 2020 king ranch however I didn’t like the size of the screen, but I’m in love with the seats. I looked at a 2021 and the screen is premium! However I am disappointed that they changed the seats, they don’t have that orange leather look as before, they seem darker. Wtf Ford.

2014 F150 with the 5.0 at 170k. Having a hard time diagnosing the source of the leak. Heater core hose broke the other day and replaced it but there is still a leak. From underneath, I can’t see where it’s coming from but it’s running down the passenger side, tracking back under approximately the seats and dripping consistently from there.

Passed pressure test and only leaks when running but when I turn the truck off I can smell burning coolant. Suspected spot was water pump but don’t have the ability to confirm and want to troubleshoot as much as possible before taking it to a dealership

Designed some brackets to mount a 1UP bike rack up against the bed rails. They’re flush with the top of the bed and have room to adjust mounting positions left and right. The brackets get sandwiched between the bed sides and box link plates, maintaining full box link functionality. They are high clearance enough for my decked drawer to easily fit underneath.

Though I designed it around a 1UP roof rack, most any other similar rack should work or be easily adapted to work. I’m also thinking about putting a second set on the passenger side in order to mount a roof top tent to be as low profile as possible. Either way, I’ve got options for the future of these.

I’d love to hear any suggestions or questions that y’all may have. Might be doing a V2 in the future.

2019 2.7 with 80k miles. Purchased with 63k and thanks to input here and another places I paid $4k for a 3 year 36k miles ford service plan.

Was lurching into 4th and 5th, not terrible but noticeable.

They first rebuilt valve body before doing a complete rebuild with new cdf and all sorts of other parts. 24 hours of shop time plus parts, the service plan was a good buy for me.

Only issue yet and hopefully ever! Love my f150; love my service plan.

Been searching for a while and today I found my exact speck with every single option I want!
1958 miles away, in New Jersey… the search continues.

2014 F-150 XL 4x4, 184,000 miles that I got to replace my 13’ F-150 Supercrew 6.5’ 3.5 ecoboost 4x4 I lost to an accident.

1 Owner, PA

7 Lug hubs, 9.75” Axle in rear

Heavy duty suspension (4 thick leaf springs in rear, beffier shocks all around, heavier springs in front)

No accidents

Frame is absolutely MINT not a spot of rust anywhere on it.

Needed a water pump which I’ve already done myself (with thermostat)

Vinyl floors

Communications package (SYNC, Bluetooth, Etc)

I own a growing excavation business and I own some equipment (1.5 ton mini excavator, compactors, tools etc) and pretty regularly haul a dump trailer with my equipment or supplies, so when I lost my old truck I was considering jumping into an F-250 but really liked the size of the F-150. After a few weeks looking I found this on market place and saw the specs on the window sticker, saw the HDPP (which i never heard of) and did some research on it and realized it was kinda perfect for what I need. Once I went to go see it and confirmed it was as clean in person as it was online, I shelled out 9,000 cash and brought it home. Been happy with it so far.

How rare is this thing?

Looking at a 2026 F150 Lariat. Just wondering how many inches is it from the backseat bench up to the bottom of the window sill? Asking for my dog.

This is my truck. It’s a completely stock 2015 f-150 XLT. It has the 5.0 with currently 65,000 miles. I’m planning to keep it for a long time so I’m thinking through some modifications. Any ideas!?

Over never worked on vehicles and know very little about truck mods. I don’t necessarily have a budget but don’t want to spend a ton right off the bat. My current thoughts are a level and new tires, but I’m really not sure. I’d love some broad and specific recommendations. If you have links to specific parts, even better!! Thank you!

I just bought these puppies for my 2015. Do I need anything else (besides an alignment)?

Has anyone ever tried to insulate the screen to help reduce the hot house effect?
Whenever, I park in the sun my truck gets so hot.
