Don’t get me wrong. I love my truck. Will buy another Ford whenever I replace this one

I have a 2017 F150 and it's been a solid truck. I'd buy another Ford and this is the first one I've owned.

It does. Tell me more. Soliciting opinions, pros and cons. Still working out some details, so no money has exchanged hands.

It’s depends on the quality of the kit and the installation. I personally do not have a need for a lift kit and prefer stock ride height and tires.

2023 F-150 KR 5.0L
- supported by Luke Combs, Brantley Gilbert, Alan Jackson, and Toby Keith (RIP)
- poor quality

2023 GMC 1500 Denali 6.2L
2022 Ram 1500 Longhorn 5.7L
- bailed out by Obama and
- poor quality

I’d buy the Ford, change the engine oil (Rotella T6) and tranny fluid and rear diff oil regularly and drive it over 200k+ miles, fix it when it breaks, and enjoy the lack of Obama stench.

I’d take the GMC only bc it has the 6.2. Except for the engine I’d pick the Ram.

Ford Motor Company borrowed $5.9 billion from the U.S. government in June 2009, which was part of the broader automotive industry bailout during the financial crisis. Additionally, Ford Credit, the financing arm of Ford, received $15.9 billion in federal aid to ensure loans continued to flow during the economic downturn.

Yet Ford didn’t go through bankruptcy or get bailed out like GM and Chrysler.

You can argue schematics all you want. In short time without the money ford was going to follow. Banks were not leading money without excellent credit. Secondly without the bailout vendors would have went under causing supply issues for all makes. Was it right? Nope. Is it something to pound your chest about nope.
