What owners of this build wrote

Power Train Jun 2014
My truck was not involved in an accident. I have 74,000 miles on my truck and the transmission is starting to slip. With this low mileage this should not be happening
Electrical System Jul 2013
Parking our boat trailer at the lake and rolled the window down heard a weird crunching noise so I rolled back up and then it just slid down all by itself and had to leave our f-150 unlocked at the lake and worry the whole time while we were on our boat expensive to repair…
Engine And Engine Cooling Nov 2006
A few days later the engine light came on again and this time it was the catalytic converter, which had to be replaced. When they said the other catalytic converter needed to be replaced. Had this truck in the shop 6 times for engine light
