Just wondering what you guys (or girls) think about the 2004 f-150..I just saw one yesterday and I thought it was really sharp. I currently have a 2002, but I may trade in. Ohh man I also just saw a comercial with the dodge ram and a f-150....

I like the new ford. They did a real nice job on it. No matter what anyone says, ford makes good trucks. The new dodge looks good but it's made with toilet paper under those good looks.
Ford's have always looked like they use snap-on parts for the interior - basically it looks cheap. Hopefully the new 2k4's will do them justice.
I'm looking at the '04 myself considering my '00 has 115,000 miles on it and is reliable as fuck, only thing i replaced so far diff seal,O2 senser and one of the coils!
I like the look of the 2004's. If I hadn't already purchased an 03 I'd pick up (pun there) one for sure. Dodge isn't bad, I like the hemi but I'd wait to see if bugs come out of those before buying.
I agree with Juggernaut, if you are going to purchase one, I'd strongly recommend waiting a few months, because they will get the first waves of recalls out of the way and because the truck is such a high volume product, discounts will be available left and right.
I do like the way it looks, and think it's a significant improvement over the last one.
Which coil did you replace..Was it the pass. side middle..Right under the coolent hose?Quote:

I like the new F150 , if I didnt buy my 2002 F250 Super Duty , I'd definatley be getting a 150 how did they get the extra 40 horses out of that engine?? New air intakes or just computer tuning wish I would've waited a couple years.
my baby.....i'm buying my wife a 04 fx4 with a 6" lift
I like the inside of the new 150s. I am not happy however about the fact that they look identical to the 250s and up. I hate the side windows with the drop off by the side mirrors. They should have kept the two trucks somewhat different from each other.
I have both 150 and 450 diesel dually. IMO they are two totally different styles of trucks.
You know, they raised the truckbed two inches solely so they could have the drop down windows. And if i can offer any advice to someone who wants one of these (i work for a Ford dealer), these trucks are nice and reliable, but they are COMPLETELY redone. So...they are new model. You will have all the problems a brand new model has, so don't be surprised if it seems like everything is wrong. Wait a year when they have almost everything perfected.
Nuthin beat a good ole crew cab powerstroke I love it when the chicks get in and go "Man you could have some serious sex in this thing" :cool:
Passenger side right against the firewall, the dealer tried to charge me $120+ for it and i got it from MSD for $60.Quote:
