Some things I should have noticed when I went to see it. But I'm gonna go a head and list everything from the top of my head.

-Spark plug replacement, known issue on Triton 5.4L. Basically a retarded head design by Ford Motors. My mechanic (also a close buddy) broke 3 out of 8 plugs. Ended up taking all 3 out with a special tool. The last plug while taking out he stripped threads. He had to call a special millwright dude who would come in and thread it to specs. No car for me for like 4 days.

-Left front spring was broken. Had to replace both front.

-Just recently my power steering stop working. Either pump or sterring rack.

-Volume UP button on steering wheel doesn't work.

-Fan UP/Down button on steering wheel doesn't work

-Temperature Up/Down button on steering wheel doesn't work

-Teperature display is very deem when my headlight switch is in Auto position

-When I go through a carwash a get a pretty big leak above rear/bed window

-One of the rear parking sensors stopped working like after a week when I bought the truck. The other day I ordered some from ebay. Even if that's the issue, don't know.

-Check engine came in a couple times saying that it's either O2 sensors or cats. So we ended up replacing all 3 sensors.

I love the truck and all but tell me again why a 10 year old truck has issues like that? Milage is not even that high for it. I worked out most of the problems out but why I shouldn't I buy Chevy next?
