I'm still in the market for a truck and am leaning towards an older Ford F-150 (with a 6 cylinder manual). But there's a story on the Canadian Broadcasting Corp (CBC) website today that has me thinking again.

Not being able to get a 7 year old vehicle fixed (without having a major consumer advocacy group go after Ford) is disappointing. What if it had been 10 or even 20 years old - would he have just been out of luck? Is anyone having trouble accessing any parts (OEM or aftermarket) for an older Ford F-150?
