[QUOTE="Raptor911, post: 1267472, member: 7538"] I don't think we will ever find out the real issue. I bet most owners who don't have an issue with the plastic pan will not care or even know that Ford switched to a metal pan. My guess is that at some point the composite pan was costing them $$ in repairs and imagine if a plastic pan were to have a catastrophic failure then Ford would owe the customer a new engine. Is it worth it to save some pennies in the short term only to spend 1000% more in possible repairs? An interesting note .. Ford list the metal pan as a part fitting F150s from 02/26/2018 - 10/22/2018. Why would they list F150s up to 10/22/2018? Is there a new engine design coming after 10/22/2018? [/QUOTE]
