2006 Ford F-150 User Reviews

Comfortable, Safe, Dependable And An Overall Joy To Drive — In deciding which make of truck to buy, I took the oppertunity to drive each of the top selling truck in the Southern California market. These trucks were: Dodge, Chevrolet, GMC, Nissan, Toyota and Ford. I considered the Honda as well, but I eliminated it based on looks alone. It just doesn't do anything for me personally. After driving them all, taking price into consideration, handling, power output and torque as well as overall driving pleasure, I chose the Ford. The Lariat Edition Supercrew was exactly what I was looking for, at the price I was looking to spend. It wasn't the cheapest truck but it wasn't the most expensive either. I've owned it for just over a year now and I couldn't be more pleased. The factory 300hp 365ft/lbs. of torque was easily increased with a MAC high flow intake, custom Flowmaster exhaust, a Superchips Power Programmer and a bed cover. It towed sufficiently stock, but with the bolt ons it has absolutely no problem towing a mid sized boat or car trailer with a '68 Ford Galaxie on it, with the 5.4L V8. It's as luxurious as any truck could be inside, with it's chrome plated A/C registers, quality sound system and soft black leather interior with heated seats. On long trips, the passengers don't feel tired and beat up like you would in another truck. Its a comfortable ride. Overall, it was a great purchase and I appreciate the attention to detail and overall quality of the truck. It drives nice, brakes predictably and can haul or tow just about anything I'd realistically expect it to. The cab of the truck is roomy and easily seats 6. I would recommend this truck to anyone who is in the market for a full sized truck.

Built Ford Tough. — Beautiful styling. Excelent power all around. Brake pads need replacement often. Only replaced one tire (used spare for the other), alternator, brake pads, and one rotor. Don't like that there is only a key hole on driver side. Power window quit working.

Primary Use: Family transportation

Ford Is A Trusted Name In Trucks, I Mean Really They Have Been Around The Longest Of Any Truck Manuf — I really enjoy the look of this truck how it sits up higher off the ground and how it handles very nicely in the turns. It has some nice features with the cup holders. There is a water bottle sized holder in the drivers side door below the window instrument panel. And the cup holders in the back seat are nice beacause they pull out and are flush with the carpet and are all one piece. No more collapsing spring holders to deal with.

Primary Use: Utility (towing boats, transporting cargo, etc.)

I Love My Truck And Hope I Never Have To Get Rid Of It,i Love To See It Shine In The Sun — The Performance of my truck is ok but could be better. Even with a borla exhaust,long tube headers,high flow cats, k&N intake and edge power programmer,4.10 gears, Ford racing cams it could still use a supercharger to make it haul ass. Even with the over sized rim and tires my truck brakes very well. Gas mileage ha what gas mileage, no i get anywhere between 12.5 to 15.5 mpg, its not that bad, i used to get only 10.5 mpg.

Who Needs A Car When You Have This? — The F-150 has one of the most well-laid out interiors of any truck. Fit and finish is excellent, controls are well placed and have good tactile feel. The crew cab offers generous room and comfortable amenities for all passengers. While the engine is certainly less capable than its competitors, this is only noticed when towing heavy loads. Every day driving produces more than acceptable performance.
