1999 Ford F150 Work Series review from North America
"Don't buy the V6!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
500 miles: Broken plastic hub cap.
16000 miles: Transmission is leaking.
General comments?
For the most part this truck is OK.
Do not buy the V6, it's unrefined and weak.
The automatic transmission finds overdrive too soon causing the engine to lug at speeds below 55 mph.
Bench seats offer no lumbar support.
