I can see all the others on the list, but the F-250? I’m puzzled by that. I never owned one, but I’ve been in several and know folks who have them.

I was puzzled, too, until I saw that they were relying on “Consumer Reports”, an entity which I not merely do not respect, but actively hold in contempt.

I suspect the rating on the F-250 has a lot to do with the 6.4L Powerstroke engine. They were very unreliable, very costly to repair and nothing at all like the previous 7.3L in terms of longevity.

but the F-250.... There was a comment on another thread that said something about the 250 serving the niche market of states that required a commercial license to drive the F-350. Said that the 350 was a better truck, for about $1000 more.

I dunno, I've never driven either one of them. Just repeating what was said.
