I have owned an 04 EB Expy and an 04 F150 Screw FX4 and I would say to definetely go with the F150. Both of mine got about the same gas mileage and I don't realize how much I use the truck bed untill I try to put something in the back of an SUV. On top of that the Screw F150 holds 5 people very comfortably. Definetely go with the 5.4L though, so much better than the gutless 4.6L with that weighty truck.
