Ford trucks have always had it right, thats why every 3rd car on the road is a F-seriers truck....one look out of the corner of my eye driving down the road is a Ford truck. People buy them all over the place, why? becuase they are the best truck, period.

I think that's about all that needs to be said about the 2009. Agree 100%. Too many people are whining and moaning about the new design.

Don't mistake quantity for quality.

To be the sales leader, of course they are. That doesn't make Ford the best.

Well I would assume that if they have been the best selling for 31yrs they are definatley doing something right, Dodge would make great truck if they had the quailty.

Hmmmmm let see, best selling truck for 31 years...... a lot of repeat buyers.... lot of new buyers which came from other brands...... So im assuming this means that the F150 is very dependable, safe, and capable.... If the truck wasnt any of these that I mentioned then it wouldnt be the best selling truck....... So yeah id say it has been the best

Okay, Pro ford website, so Ford is going to be number one, even if your F-150 is not, this is a great place to come to to feel good abought your Ford.

Thiers a lot of out side sources that right Ford as not so great, and some that do, I must admit Dodge has not resolved thier automatic issues and every one who owns a 5.4 3v bitch and whine abought the lack of H/P and how bad mileage is.


I'm surprised to admit I like the 09 F-150, but Fords been a high horse for so long now, The buck off is going to hurt.

To win a sales game is ok, but a lot of those sales numbers for all the brands are leases, not long term owners who drive em till they drop.

Umm, spell check is there for a reason. One more thing - Why are you even here if Dodge is so great??

Well... that explains who is buying dudges.... Oh... and I have no complaints about power. My 5.4 does just fine. Anybody would want more. But lets be real.. what you want and what you need are often two different things.

I own and am very happy with my 2005 Screw but feel the new 2009 is just boring. Yeah there are some new additions to the interior but meh. I was expecting a new truck not a facelifted truck. With the new Dodge and tundra and chevys I feel change is a coming ford.
