#f150nation #f150platinum #f150
I have the same truck with 221,000 still going strong just changed plugs recently. Great truck.
Looking to get a 2016 one like this. Are they good and reliable
Mine has 139k. I have replaced the water pump, purge valve, and crank position sensor. Other stuff would be running board motors and camera module. Typical higher mileage items I guess. It's not perfect by any means
@@javonta4422 no matter what my wife says I still love my truck! I have a 16 platinum V8. Bought in 2019 w/ 93k now has 136k. Since then I replaced the basic high mileage stuff. No major drivetrain issues and my truck has never left me stranded off the road. I avg 16.5 mpg as a spirited driver. Absolutely no regrets.
@@foford2010any shifting clunk/click from transmission?
I just bought a ‘15 Platinum V8, 5.0 for 4k. It does need 2-3k worth of repairs, but I don’t think it was bad for the price.
It has 244k miles, the engine is good. The problems it has it an oil leak and an overheating issue due to dry rotted hoses. Other than that, it’s good. Can’t wait to get it fixed and running 100%. I drove it around town a bit and absolutely loved it.
I have the same one that I bought used with 85k on it. I really wanted a truck and at the time I liked everything in this one. Mine is 5.0 v8 and currently has 102k on it now. Running boards still work fine and I live in Colorado, very cold winters and dry in the summer. Added cold air intake, mudders, 20” fuel wheels and. Tuner she’s paid off so I’m gonna keep it that way. I hope to get another 300k out of her, I still love how she looks.
It definitely can. I once came across a King Ranch if that year with over 270,000. I have an Oxford while platinum and I hope it lasts me 300,000 too.
Good looking F150! We bought a new 2011 Escape Limited new back then as the wife's daily. It was in that tuxedo black and I always loved that color when it was all shined up. The metallic was great.
just bought a 2015 lariat i freaking love this truck man. its tuxedo black as well. your videos have been very helpful.
awesome truck, i just picked up a '16 Platinum.. my first truck/Ford, your videos have been a great help! looking forward for updates on this one. got a new sub!
Great Choice AD! SYNC3 is a great idea too.
I love sync 3. I've got all the bugs worked out now
I just got an 18 Platinum, I've always heard that the king ranch was the top package.
I got two years out of my power running boards (2016 f150) before i swapped out for non powered. I live in western PA and the mechanic at my local Ford dealer said I did well. They only work well in dry western USA climate.
Already replaced the motor and hinge for $300 brand new
@@AutoDad the ones on the ‘16 lariat you were talking about are running strong and I’ve only noticed ice build up and when I see it I get rid of it.
I have a 2017 F150 Fx4 supercrew v8 no ecoboost @150,000 miles any suggestions on keeping it running good. I bought it in 2019 with 48,000 miles
Your truck is set to default to Canadian units. To set it to US, scroll over to Settings (far right on my display), then set up, units, select miles/gallons.
I did this right away and it still defaults. Even changed the country code to US via Forscan
@@AutoDad sorry it’s not working for you - frustrating for sure.
It's all good. I am used to hitting the ok button right away now
I just got a 2015 Platinum in Ruby Red with the Cocoa Brown interior, only 040,000 miles!
What did it cost you? I’m looking at a white platinum with 27k miles. FX4 package, brunello interior, tech package and sunroof
I think I am going to have to keep my 2015 XLT as my work truck. Plowing and trips to Home Depot and Lowes and such. But I would love to get myself an older Raptor as my daily driver.
That's what I thought until I saw what $26k gets you lol
Nice truck! Hope you can find some matching head rests.
I have a FORScan question for you related to the platinum, I have a 2018 and it has the heated steering wheel and multi contour seats. I don't have anything on my sync screen for either one of those options so my use is somewhat limited. I noticed in a video you did it shows the heated steering wheel and seats on the APIM FORScan list, can you turn those options on and off in FORScan?
In the setting you can opt to leave the running boards open or closed position.
After 10mph they go back in
@@AutoDad not unless they broken 😅. I replaced driver and passenger and like you said I turn them off during the Northeast winters.
I have the same truck and it's also Canadian, and the default mph thing it's annoying, mine does the same I have to press ok everytime and it also does it with the power running boards, they always go back to auto, the won't stay down, as soon as you start driving they go back to auto.
Does the 2015 have adaptive cruise control?
Yes
Nice currently looking to buy a 2015 platinum
Congrats! Nice truck
I have a 2015 and been wanting to upgrade from SYNC2. Do you have a video or links to what you did to upgrade?
Right here

if u dont mind me asking how did u pay for this trim of truck? thanks
Nice ride!
i thought sync 3 was in 2015 onward
Is 100k + considered high mileage for these trucks? Are they pretty reliable after that kind of mileage?
I’m in the market for a new truck and I am considering pulling the trigger on an f150 with 115k mes
I would say higher miles not high I've had to replace my water pump and running board motors
@@AutoDad100k high miles ? What planet do you live on Karen
@@AutoDad how much is it to replace running boards
I think I paid $275 for each motor
Why trade down a year instead of up?
Did you get rid of the 550? selling mine unfortunately 😭
No I got rid of the F250
5.0 or 3.5
How do I get to the diagnostic menu on sync 2?
I am not sure. I upgraded to sunc 3
@@AutoDad I tried the right arrow on the wheel + right arrow on the radio and once and doesn’t do anything.
I found a 16 platinum for 25k with 118k miles what you think?
Which engine? I would recommend the 5.0. Lots of people on here say they have issues with their 3.5 EcoBoost
@@AutoDad it’s a 5.0 with clean title
In this market that sounds like a good price. I love my platinum
@@AutoDad sweet thanks man! Going to look at it this week.
That is a rich man’s truck
Lots of miles for a 15!
For an 8 year old truck? Not at all lol
No it's not
We have a 2015 V8 that is over 250,000 miles, still running strong.
Just spent 5500 bucks so the dealership could fix my 2015 F150 ecoboost with 50k miles on it. I bought it for 52000 at the same dealership. They made a mint of cash by me loyally following their maintenance plan. The pile came with extended gas tank and tow package. Good thing I never tried towing anything. Probably would have made it break down faster. Can't give it away. It taught me to never buy one of the worst trucks ever. It was specially built in Michigan (came with a cute sticker saying so). So like the dog doo doo. This piile is sitting in my yard to rot. Why at least it can't break down and gets better gas mileage and trying to get rid of it has been fruitless. I strongly suggest do not buy this model. It will cost you only grief and cash.
Sorry to hear. The 5.0 engine in the 2015-2017 model is the best one of the lineup. Once they added the auto start stop feature in the later model, it started to have issues.
Yes I should have stayed away from Ford. Maybe next I'll stick to anything but Ford trucks.
My 2015 ecoboost 2.7 has 120k no issues
Im about to buy a 3.5 eco 2015 platinum w/ 126K. Seems to be in excellent shape, any advice?
Test drive it. Turbos get tired
@@AutoDad what a good way to tell of the Turbos are tired?
@@AutoDad what a good way to tell of the Turbos are tired?
No offense, King ranch is the top...
XL, XLT, lariat, platinum, king ranch
Your are incorrect. King ranch, platinum, limited
No F150 Raptor is the top of the food chain
are you certain it isn't one of the stolen trucks shipped from canada to usa for sale?
