I guess we have forums for Boo Birds to come out of the wood work.....LOOK OUT HERE COMES ONE.......on the subject of Ford doesn't care about it's customers....it did for me.
Back in the 1988 time line, Detroit (namesake) got into the water based paint business. I bought a new F150 XLT. Drove it 2 years or so...forget the year exactly....out of warranty for what I am about to say, and "scuttle-butt" at work was that Ford was repainting vehicles that had the paint peeling. Test was a piece of 2" wide duct tape, in several places on the vehicle. Press it on and pull it off. If any paint was removed you got a new paint job.
I took the truck to a dealer and failed the test. He set me up to have the work done....caveat was that it would be done when they had time. He asked me if I had any repairs I needed done. I had an emission issue, a rear fuel tank sending unit out and something else...forget what. He scheduled for me to leave the truck with him. He asked if I had transportation and I said no. He set me up in a rental car. Over all it took about a month before I got my truck back. Looked like new. Repairs completed.
Total price, TTL....................Zero!
I haven't had a Ford since, but one good thing I can say about the truck is that it had velour upholstery and captain's chairs. I smoked about a pack a day back then and had been smoking for some 30 years. When I bought it, I decided I didn't want to stink up my nice new truck so, cold turkey, I just quit smoking. Haven't touched one since.

Today's Featured Article - The Day Mom Drove the 8N - by Brian Browning. My Dad was wanting to put in a garden but couldn't operate the 8N and handle the old horse drawn plow he had found and rigged up to use with the tractor. Well, he decided to go get Mom out of the house and have her drive the tractor while he walked behind the plow. You got to understand that while my Mom is a hard worker who will always help whenever she can... she had never operated farm machinery before that day. Dad got her out there, explained how the clutch was the same as in our o
