You done sent out the bat signal now. We are going to hear how we are stuck in the past and how the poster knew 2 people with an ecoboost and neither has a problem with it.

Is there an option to get the 6 speed anymore? The last gen Ford 6 speeds were fantastic.

What about the rams? As far as I know the 5.7's are great.

Maybe if you order a new one but I doubt it. I am seeing the 10speeds do have some issues.

I think the N/A V6 option still uses the 6 speed.

If your towing is light they are pretty reliable.

The company I worked for had some N/A V6 supercrews and they were serviceable from a performance standpoint and got pretty decent mpg.

The 10 speed transmission was co-developed by Ford and GM. You are not escaping any GM woes by going this route. Buy the damn Tundra, and be done with it.

That's what OP should get. Not the most exciting option but they are ultra reliable

I want a crew cab with a full size box, Toyota doesn't make that.

Cant speak for the 21-23 but the 5.0 in the 15-20s are tanks, first hand experience with the 18-20's. I love Fords but I do think I remember some quality control issues with the new body style updates in the 21-22 f150s outside of the engine but idk surely they fixed that with 23.

As for 19-20 you should be good.

Never had problems with the 10 speed, I think you can still find the 5.0 in 6 speed for 18 and/or 19 but I may be wrong.

2016 Ram 1500 5.7 170k no issues besides a radiator stress crack.

Two other good buddies with same engine are at 130 & 100 with no issues.

RAMs are better trucks than they used to be.

Nobody makes that in a light duty truck.

Full size=8'

Only close option is a supercab 8' box (DCLB in Toyota speak). I own one and with the rear doors that open like regular doors and roomy extra cab it is a close match.

Crewcab + 8'box=HD pickup.

Unless you consider 6.5' "full-size".

8ft to me is a long bed, full size is 6.5ft. And as far I know Yota doesn't offer that in a crewcab.

Have a 22 with the 5.0 and just rolled over 6k miles. transmission was pretty jerky at first and bothered me but it has gotten much better as I drive it. No complaints with the 5.0 with 3.73 rear end. Averaging around 16/20 mpg with level and 35” MTs

Had a 19 with the 5.0. Loved the engine and truck. Hated the transmission. Had adaptive learning reset but no resolve. I got rid of it at 29K miles. Very disappointed but didn’t want a truck with such severe issues.

Plastic oil plug will leak like a sieve. We had that happen on one of our company trucks. 2019 I think. Mine is a 16 and had been a good truck save a few idling issues. Hit 206k on it this week.

I have a ‘19 with right at 180k miles. It’s a 40 mile commute to the farm and then it spends all day on a farm.

Very little problems with the life it has.

My biggest issue has been headlights. I’ve replaced both head lights and both fog lights.
