 Based on what I've heard I would say yes, but like I said this is a long term assessment. You'll likely find people that will have a different view this is just mine based on the world around me. My next door neighbor gave his 2004 Ford to the junk yard after so many problems.

 I think that's true, but at what price? If you're like many and have to buy injectors, injector pumps, head gaskets etc is it worth it. I didn't want to take the chance considering I knew I would have my vehicle 10 years or longer. If you can buy new and keep trading in so your truck is always new then no worries.
