Cars.com reliability score from owner reviews: 3.9 for the 2024 model year

Recent reliability is currently on a downswing for sure, but for better or worse Ford does sell a metric shit ton of F-series trucks. I stand by my statement that they know how to build trucks, especially compared to the truck-in-name-only CT. And I stand by my statement that I’d rather take a Lightning over a CT any day of the week. Of course, neither are a Toyota in the reliability department.
