If you own a 2020 F-150, then be very wary of mice. Strangely, Ford uses a soy based wire insulation coating that attracts rodents. They will chew on the wiring and suddenly you will be faced with multiple electrical faults. The Solution is apply rodent repelant tape or pepper spray the wiring...

If you hear a loud grinding noise from your front wheels something I can best describe as 'metal on metal' or marbles in a blender, then the main culprit is the Integrated Wheel End(IWE). A loss of vacuum pressure causes the IWE 4WD hubs to partially engage. It's a very unsettling soud and you...

If there's sweet smelling smoke wafting from your engine bay or you're constantly topping up your coolant, then you may first want to check the water pump housing to see if its leaking coolant. This is a known issue in the F-150. The solution is to replace the plastic housing and that usually...

As the name goes, this is a scary problem. You wake up in the morning, jump into your truck, turn it on and are immediately met by a borne chilling rattle. The best way to describe it is 'full metal on metal'. It may be subtle on some days depending on how warm your engine is. This is caused...

This is an extremely dangerous problem where the truck suddenly drops into 1st while traveling at high speed causing severe/catastrophic deceleration. This is caused by a faulty Output Shaft Speed Sensor(OSS) that sends incorrect speed data to the powertrain control module. The solution is to...

This is a major problem in the F-150 where the display on the instrument cluster shows a different gear than the physical shifter position. This is caused by a loose or broken shift cable clip that does not properly secure the transmission linkage. The solution is to replace the cable clip with...

If your truck is shifting strangely, sometimes hesitating before engaging gears or dropping power entirely during acceleration then you could be facing transmission solenoid problems. When transmission solenoids dont read pressure correctly, they can relay wrong information which causes the...

User Feedback: Everest,.Since! For me is the total package of safety and security and as well as the entertainment too,,..Plus the fact that's also cool to look at So yeah,.My pick! Would definitely be the FORD EVEREST

User Feedback: Terra. Reliability and dependability. Easier and cheaper to maintain. Spareparts are everywhere and cheaper too. The resale value holds better. And NASA zero gravity seats are always comfortable. Everest's center console is scary. Too much tech = too much problems in the long run

User Feedback: I prefer the Terra, as ride comfort and a reliable transmission are important to me. I have doubts on the reliability of the 10-Speed transmission of the Everest. The Ford may have more HP and Torque, I'd rather go with a better fuel economy with the Nissan. Besides, with all the...

Owner feedback : Comfort is top notch, even on bad roads with pot holes it feels comfortable. I don't feel tired anymore (im 44 yrs old). Fuel consumption is ok at 11.1 km/L
