I have the SLT Ext cab 4.7L. It starts right up with a flick of the switch, and Acceleration is excellent, sport car like, with a cool sounding engine growl with the stock exhaust. At 75,000 miles it developed a leak in the rack, and pinion, and the thermostat went bad, as well as the pwr steering pump, and master switch for the power windows. The clear coat went totally bad as well. I think it's unacceptable, but it did sit for long periods as a second vehicle? It was a good deal used, but not a good choice for a work truck considering 12-15 mpg, with It's size?

Love my 5.9 360 ol blue has 4x4 and is dependable. Wish they would come out with a newer 5.9. Gas hog but she makes up for it with the way it purrs.

Not pretty, not overly comfortable but an excellent work truck. Things will break but it will never leave you truly stranded. Parts are cheap and it;s easy to work on. I have (3) 3.9 on the road as fleet trucks. Keep-up with cheap maintenance and the will reward you by making money. Turn signal bulbs and crappy gas mileage are what you should expect.

I''ve had this since new. SLT club cab 4 X 4 4.7L. It has been very reliable, I got stuck only one time, my fault, I''ve been very satisfied with it. Routine maintenance only and one recall that I remember, front suspension issue. Not bad at all.

I had to replace many parts on this truck. The engine would often have to crank for a couple seconds before starting. The shocks wore out, the alternator, the water pump, the routers, and other things I am sure I am forgetting. There oil leaks were common and gas milage was bad. On the other hand it was a comfortable and spacious ride that was even good for long trips. My truck did not have four wheel drive and that was a bit of a drag at times.
