just shy of 45k on my 2019. Up until recently, no problems. But just since January, I've had the blend door issue and the transmission issue. Blend door was repaired under the extended warranty. In the shop now for the transmission issue, which should fall under the mfr powertrain warranty. I hope this is the end of the repair visits for a good long while. I like the truck otherwise.

2020 Lariat scab, 19K miles. Just had airbox replaced under warranty and 2 minor recalls. Trans likes to hang out in 7th when it should be in 4th or 5th. Tap on the accelerator makes it snap out of it. No hard shifts otherwise.

68.3k miles on my 2019 CC XLT FX4. i bought it certified used at 22k miles (previous owner towed a pair of ATVs on a flat trailer with it for his fun weekends).
tl;dr -- truck is doing great despite some easily corrected hiccups.
more detail:
-Bucking/surging happened somewhere in the 30-40k range -- rectified for about $25 with the appropriate part ordered online.
-Blend door/HVAC box warped around 50k miles -- $3,600 repair that Ford Customer Service knocked down to $900 and gave me a complimentary Maintenance Plan to cover my next 60k miles of oil changes (12 visits).
-Transmission was behaving oddly after installing the Ford OEM trailer brake controller, but I think it ended up being the ECU went back into learning mode. After about 750 miles the thing smoothed out. I swapped the spark plugs around 66k miles to the newer Ford part # specified for this truck (they're double iridium now) and the truck has felt even smoother since.
I had to drive all over God's creation last weekend with a steady mix of highway and non-highway driving. The whole time I was thinking about how well the truck was driving. if this thing had a crew cab long bed i'd probably keep it til the wheels fell off. at some point i'm going to need the extra capability of a 6ft+ bed, but for now it'll do just fine. really enjoying it!
edit: i forgot! metal rails on top of the cab started to chip/peel the paint around 60k miles. some scotch tape, some sandpaper to clean up the metal, and matte black rustoleum spraypaint and it's been corrected to a level that i'm happy with.

just over 66600. All is well. If I hadn't retired it would be close to 80000 if not over.

49k, no major issues to report. Did get some drivetrain vibration at about 40k likely thanks to my leveling and tire upgrade, but a one piece driveshaft solved that issue. The Ford Performance tune rectified most of my annoyance with the shifting on the truck, plus a little extra grunt is always nice.

143,407 miles and counting on my 2019 XLT. I have had it since it had 8 miles on the odometer. Original transmission and never had an issue. Just dropped it off this morning to get the transmission and transfer case serviced (this will be the second time servicing both. Both were done at 106k miles ?) I know you mostly hear of the negatives on this forum which is the norm but this truck has been phenomenal and I’m very fortunate to be as lucky as I have been with minimal maintenance done. Here’s some photos. Keep on truckin!
