I drained the oil this morning thinking maybe I was getting leak down form the injectors. The oil drained w/ 13 1/2 qrts cold. No fuel in oil.

I went to leave today and 10 mins. into the drive, I got the irratic idle, poofing under the dash and no power. Barely got up the hill.

The truck is back at the third Ford dealership for the same problem in 4 weeks.

I am still stranded b/c of Ford's incompetency. I am pissed off and frustrated.

This will be the last POS Ford I ever buy.

I called the Ford customer assistance number for help w/ repair bills. They told me to stick and ask the service writer. Nice.

This is my 6th FOrd and my last. No wander the foreign car comps. are beating the crap out of the US auto makers. We make junk and don't stand behind it. This will be the last American car I buy too.
