      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

      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.

    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?

    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.
