Cheers Captchas. I'm glad that you're doing better on your other fronts.
Back in '05 when I was looking at new trucks, the experience you, FredVon4, and WrenchTraveller posted on here were big a reason I bought the V10. I've been very happy with mine. Glad you're back.

the 5.3 can't in my mind never can compair to the 05 v10. i mean it sucks gas worse then the v10 when towing,but it's a ford and with the trade i got for the stang i was able to pay cash for it.
as to my v10 it was sold 2 times after me and seen totaled out in my local body shop. guys behind me made it a mess, abused and put away wet so to say.
have 6 04 and 05 v10's on my street here,the guys all come to me for advise and use of my garage and tools to service them. most of these were psd lovers till diesel went higher then gas,all say the v10 matches the psd in mpg's with the old between the floor and pedal trick we all use.
