2003 Ford F150 review from North America
"Heritage, Great truck for the name"
General comments?
I have had a good experience with Ford trucks. I purchased a 2003 Heritage Edition four wheel drive truck because the F-150 that I owned had around 120,000 miles and I drive approximately 40000 miles a year and thought I should trade it while I could still get something for the trade in value.
The current Heritage has had very few problems. While still under warranty a hose clamp broke on the bottom radiator hose and was replaced.
I service the truck regularly, but drive it like the wind and would recommend anyone to buy one.
I cannot complain about the gas mileage, although 2 mpg less than the previous truck this one gets around 18 mpg on the highway and is a 4 x 4.
I like this truck so much that I plan on keeping it, hopefully to see the 300,000 mile mark.
