As long as we’re getting into anecdotal evidence. I’ve driven an F150 as a personal vehicle and ran it pretty heavily(80 MPH over steep passes, firewood hauling, heavy trailers, off-road on farm, etc) and haven’t had any problems. I’ve also used ford’s heavy duty trucks in construction and haven’t had problems.

It’s important to remember that Ford is a large company and with enough vechicles you are bound to have cases where they don’t meet standards. Without a statistically significant dataset it’s hard to make a judgement whether one manufacturer is more reliable than another.

I don't mind them having a production issue every now and then. I do expect them to correct those issues free of charge.

x2. My anecdotal evidence is that 0% of the vehicle I have beat the living shit out of have been trouble prone in any way.
