No cam phaser issues,
I dont know what the issue with cam phasers is with Ford. I had a 2014 F150 ecoboost that had the throttle body valve lock up ($150 part). I had it towed to the dealer near my house on a Friday so it sat at the dealer all weekend and all Monday.
By the time Monday came rolling around I had done enough research to know it was a stuck TB. The service manager came back with a $7500 estimate for cam phasers and such. I literally laughted out loud at him , turned 90 deg and told the Parts Attendent to get me a TB valve, paid for it and left. Put it on at home in 10 min and was rolling down the road with no more problems.
Traded the vehicle about a yr later and never had any more issues with it. What is the deal with cam phasers?

Then rent a truck when you need a truck.

Need is relative. Want is what I’m dealing with. ETA: I use to travel a ton for work but don’t anymore so I want a truck because when you need one you fricking need one. But it needs to be nice enough for a primary vehicle
For all yall out there wondering if/when truck prices will calm down, this is why you’re shite out of luck

Ford just got hit with another 1.4M recalls on engines. Stay safe out there.
