Last Ford for me

Not enough room here to write all the problems with these Fords Trucks and for that matter all the Ford cars in the world. Last 2 Ford trucks I had were nothing but trouble and I'll never have another. See ya everybody on the Chevy side of the tracks.

Won't see me on the Chevy site. We might see you back after you get F'ed by Chevy. Or wouldyou prefer to be done over by Dodge before coming back? Just though I'd ask. BTW enjoy your Chevy. I'll be sure to wave when I pass you by. Tip: invest in a cell phone or get thier Onstar option. Saves you a long walk to phone a tow truck.

Sorry to hear. You definitely will be taking a step down in quality. I owned a 2000 GMC Sierra for about 5 months and had all kinds of problems with the dependability of the Sierra. QC issues were a headache.

Good luck, you're going to need it.....

You're preaching to a Construction Manager who has worked construction for 15 years. Look around any construction jobsite and count the number of Ford Pickups vs. Chevy Pickups.

I'm outta here.

I repair all makes and models at my garage.

I make more $$$ with the Chevy trucks hands down.

And the Dodges???? Don't even ask....they are terrible.

All I have to say is...."Don't let the Door hit you in the a$$ on the way out".

Dear BSP , ur from Canada, did you know all Chevy trucks are made in Mexico? And Canada is a major parts supplier for Ford Trucks, by buying a Chevy ur taking jobs away from ur fellow Canadians.

I drive my machines not like some of you people. Fords cant take the daily driving let alone the abuse I put it through. I own a camaro, had it for years, never failed me. These F150's may be OK for women to go shopping in but not for men doing men work!
I guarentee you don't beat on your FORD truck anywhere near the extent JMC and I do and that's on a daily basis. Going over 6 years now on my F-150 and I hav'nt had any real MAJOR problems. I have destroyed a 4R70-W but I didn't expect it to survive with the H.P/TQ I'm making.

Both my boss's both own CHEVY trucks (2002). They are major POS. They are always in the shop. The one boss's is currently getting two new heads, cats and some other smaller things due to the poor PCM programming causing him to burn several valves. CHEVY = JUNK

I'll be sure to wave to you as I pass you on the side of the road or through my back sliding window as I blow your rusted doors off.

BYE, BYE!!!!!!

My next door neighbor bought a new GMC Envoy. It had to be towed to the dealer twice the first year of ownership.

My 2000F150Scab4x4 that I bought new now has 96k on it and hasn't been to a garage yet except for the installation of a new free larger radiator.
