Anyone running these trucks take note. We have one that falls into this range. The gas tank fell to the ground while backing at a convenience store. At least it wasn't running 70 out on the highway. Apparently the 4WD units have a rock guard and they just fall onto it.

Apparently since there have been no deaths Ford doesn't see the need to recall. I'd just appreciate a letter warning of the problem. I understand a vehicle doesn't come with a lifetime warranty.

Article here.
 
I read this thread yesterday. Then on my local news last night they had a story on this and said Ford may be doing a recall. Sounds pretty serious. I had a 98 F-150 till a couple years ago and plenty of salt on the roads here.
 
Ford, and their better ideas.
