What is the best year/engine F-150? I am buying a pickup truck

>>17007460
The 4.6l is the most reliable. The 5.4 is still good but has problems sometimes

>>17007460
10th Gen is my favorite aesthetically, but they're prone to rust. 11th gens are fuck-huge and built like tanks.

You want that 5.0 all day long. Reliable as gas truck engines go outside Toyota, and the parts are cheap and produced in the millions. Fuck Ecoboost.

There's no such thing as a good F150. Get a 7.2L.

For what it's worth I have the 4.2l and I'm at 201k with no real issues besides a small oil leak

Something that isn't a Ford.

> Something new
> 1997-current
What????
Also this >>17007576
I'd get another truck, but if you absolutely HAVE to get a Ford, get a 2004 and up only

78-79 with a 400, NP205 and 4 speed

A truck is a tool. Why would get rid of the old one? As long as it works it's good enough.

>>17007663
I never said it worked. I said my last truck was a 1993 F-150.

It's totaled, Someone rear ended me at a stop light

>Everything GM
>lacks reading comprehension
Like pottery

>recommends 2004+ F150
2004-2011 are fucking garbage

OP, stick with the 97-03. They are worlds better than the generation immediately following.

Ok will do, Thanks

I am happy with both the 13 and 16 that I have, both 5.0s.

Both are just XLs so nothing fancy. Prefer the 16 to the 13 but it is personal taste. The 13 stuttered at a stop and it felt like you had diarreah on the way, the 16 is smooth as a sheet of glass.

Very little road noise, both are pretty quiet overall as well. Piston slap is pretty common since '10, my 16 does not have it.

I like the aluminum because I already caught the 13 starting to rust (I sanded/primed/no longer an issue). As long as you arent retarded the alum bed is fine.

The 16 has a fuckhuge frame compared to the 13, really easy to jack up and work on

The 16 has a fuckin horizontal oil filter so it dumps everywhere when being changed
