Post F-150 Door Crack Survey ('97-2000)

Since I have heard about lots of problems with body cracks on late model F-150's, I am trying to figure out just how common it is. If everyone that owns a 1997-2000 F-150 be so kind as to list if you have any door cracks and what year your vehicle is. Please post if you have NO door cracks at all. This way we can figure out just how common it is.

Thanks

Holy God.. Out of over 1500 people surveyes, OVER 60% have door cracks of some kind.
That's rediculous for a 1997 or newer vehicle.

Driver side door crack on '97. I've been waiting since the first of the year to get it fix with the hopes that a permanent fix would be found! No luck.. Warranty is up in June, will get it in the dealer by then.

I was reading the post about the door cracks and thought I will go check my 1997 F-150 I just bought used. And sure enough the cracks are on both sides. Not so much on the passenger side door.
