I got the most basic of F150s with virtually no options. It's my first automatic, and that's pleasant. The fuel mileage is great. I've had no difficulties with it whatsoever. It rides smooth, and the interior design is much improved from my previous (2000) model.

This is a stock F150, manual transmission, no air, manual windows. The truck has served me well since 1999... no major repairs in that entire time. It's a little light for winter driving, but there are cable "chains" available that are easy to put on and take off. I would buy an F150 again. I am, in fact, in the process of buying another one now.
