Steve Butters Posted January 22, 2020 Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 So after the engine blew in my fusion at 80k miles I just didn't trust it anymore with the replacement engine. I traded it in on a new (to me) truck that is so unpractical, but I fucking love it... So oh well. It only gets 13mpg and I can't park it at my job because the garage is too short there; I have to park it a half mile away and pay an extra $30 to use the garage between the stadiums downtown lol. Garages above 6'8" are rare here, or so I found out recently. It's a 2015 F150 with a 5.0. At least she's pretty. Got tired of my father-in-law bitching about scratches on his truck when we take it out to the desert to go shooting. So I got my own lol. His truck is a Platinum edition so he acts like it's too nice to get dirty. This one is a Lariat and seems to have all the same shit as his. Not sure what the difference even is, but this one is gonna get dirty lol. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had way more good than bad. I blame the size of the engine in the fusion more than the brand. It's too hot here and I have too heavy of a foot to drive a 1.5L 200ish hp turbo 4 banger; I really think I just ran it down. The 5.0 NA motor is much better and I don't have to run it to redline to merge onto the freeways lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than some badging, the only thing his truck has that mine is missing is powered running boards and heated rear seats. He also paid 10k more for his and it's a generation older. So far I love the Lariat. I've never had anything but base model trucks before now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My step-dad has had some awful experience with Fords recently so I hear you lol. I left the house to go test drive a Ram and I ended up at a GMC dealer buying a Ford 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBBaron Posted January 22, 2020 Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 It interesting some people are very brand loyal. My parents have only ever driven GM. On the other hand we currently have 3 vehicles, one German, one Japanese and one American, 2 of those are brands we have not owned previously. 🤷♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tpoppa Posted January 22, 2020 Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 I am not particularly brand loyal, but there are some I avoid. I think the reliability and performance of the actual model means more than the brand itself. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always heard bad things about the running boards after two years not working anymore and I didn't care about a sun roof. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My truck has a huge double moon roof but I'll probably never use it... My luck it'd get stuck open or start to leak lol. Never been a sun roof person, if I could snap my fingers and have a solid roof I would do it. However, the glass roof helped sell it to my wife... So 🤷🏻♂️🤣 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
