    My employes was nice and issued me a newer Ford f150 to drive for work. I have noticed that after driving the F-word then driving my Tundra the breaks on the Tundra has a long and hard peddle travel compared to the F-word. This is my first gen 2 Tundra not sure if this is normal or what? I have driven a gen 1 Tundra and as I recall the breaks were great on it.

    The brakes on the new F-150s are VERY sensitive. I was driving my buddies 16' Ecoboost a few days back and it looked like I had three feet driving for the first time.

    My friend has owned this truck for 6 months and is still not used to it at all.

    What motor do you have in the rental? My buddies EB has plenty of that. The steering does blow.

    I wonder why the rental sucks for power?

    The EBs have never been a "mpg" champion. Wait until you put a trailer behind it....7-9 mpg.
