A friend of ours sold us their parents truck that they dont use anymore (or hardly at all) Its in fantastic condition and all maintenance has been done on time (based on mileage).

It has the 4.6 liter engine. Anything I should be watching out for? Any preventative maintenance that I should make sure is done?

This is mainly for driving my family around but on occasion we will be towing a camper trailer. I will be installing a brake controller for this as soon as I find out what tow package I already have installed.

Id love to find ways to help the MPG but I realize that I did not purchase this car for its amazing mileage, but for its size and convenience.

Thanks!

Thanks! Will keep that in mind. Especially since this happened in my neighborhood recently. Big Rig Smashes Into a Dozen Parked Cars in Suspected DUI Crash in Orange County | NBC Southern California
