Ford F-150 reliable?

I have three 150s and five 350s for work. Had a few EGR issues with two of the 350s that were covered under warranty, but (knock on wood) the 150s have been running flawlessly. One of them is about to pass the 300k mile mark. My personal daily driver is a 2022 eco boost 150 and I absolutely love it
 
From watching years of watch Wes work, Fordtechmakuloco, Pine Hollow and South Main Auto diagnose new car issues, my takeaway is if you live in the rust belt avoid Chrysler/jeep, if you live on a bumpy gravel road drive slowly or your new Ford or Chevy dash will go wonky. With any brand distrust the dealer service department, keep moisture of all kinds out of the cab, and don’t drive fast through mud puddles or you’ll be sorry. 🙂

For new Fords, Fordtechmakeuloco has the best long term review of an f150 and talks at great length about the strengths and weaknesses of it.
 
The antithesis is that fleet vehicles typically get routine scheduled maintenance and repairs. The average private owner may not drive the vehicle like a maniac but are also more likely to miss oil changes and neglect basic repairs and preventative maintenance.
I can say this is probably false, as our fleet vehicles don't come no where near scheduled maintenance and repairs lol

maybe other businesses do better, but i wouldnt buy a fleet vehicle from wv at all lol

Yes! Lol
They get treated like rental cars unless the company has one of those tracker gizmos that logs acceleration/deceleration.

We figured out the boss put trackers on all our new trucks, so we loved telling him we were taking a longer route somewhere just to get him worked up, then he’d see on his gps app we were just messing with him and calm down, but he never admitted to the trackers. Maybe all new fleet vehicles come with an app the owner can use to follow employees?
