First check the engine mounts! So many probs start with movement of the engine when the mounts get worn! I assume it is a manual? Frankster016

F-150/2004 wont go reverse with no code?

Shift the clutch into first and second gear several times before attempting to shift into reverse if you have a manual transmission. Sometimes the clutch jams between the torque converter. Some minimal shifting between gears usually loosens the clutch, which enables you to put the car in reverse again.

Clutch

Could be, or the clutch disc. First gear and reverse do not have syncro gears, the others do. So the transmission and engine have to be "disconnected" to allow shifting into first and reverse.

Hard to shift my gears when car in cold.Won't even go out of neutral to 1st gear.Forget about going into reverse.

With the engine off, check your operation of the gear shift. If you can go in and out of the gears fine without the engine running, then you have a worn clutch disc that needs replaced. If the problem still exists then you either have low fluid/weak hydraulic system, or there is a problem with the syncro that may be adjusted.

Hard to shift

You may have what is called a syncronizer problem which is basically a transmission rip down and inspection, when the syncros go they create havoc inside the gear box making shifting extremely difficult in these gear ranges.
The other thing that also should be inspected at the same time the transmission is looked at is the clutch assembly, clutches should last long times depending on how each vehicle is driven, generally a clutch can be worn out in as little as 30,000 miles if it is pushed hard as oppossed to a car being babied and lasting 100,000 miles or more.
