What hasn't gone wrong!?
- Just about every single gasket failed in the engine when I bought it, costing about $700 to fix.
- The speedometer got tired of doing it's job right before I got rid of this truck...didn't bother fixing it.
- A/C didn't ever work... never fixed it.
- Accidentally pressed the "4x4" button on the dash, causing the 4-wheel drive to engage and stay engaged until a new shift motor was put in for about $300.
All these problems in 10k miles! Total crap box.
The one and only thing I liked about this truck was its sporty look and comfotable interior. The rest of the truck was junk and poorly designed. It was pathetically slow on the highway. Just to cruise at 70mph the pedal had to be held all the way to the floorboard... super weak on power! First through 3rd gears had pretty good power.
The paint was extremely well cared for, yet it was "micro-checking" anyway... a common Ford paint problem. Gas mileage was OK for a truck. Around 25mpg on the highway.
Considering I only had the truck for 10k miles and had all the problems mentioned above, this truck was a nice looking junk pile!!!
Maybe you should have fixed it your self and gaskets don't just go bad for no reason did you lubricate them?
