The only drawback is the 5.5' bed but a bed extender can be picked up down the road. Also it has the 4.6 3V in it which is a new motor/transmission combination. It also has just a tic over 100k miles but if it was well taken care of and the price is right it maybe worth it.

That would have the 6 speed transmission in it Neil. Would help you out on the fuel economy.

That is correct. Looking at the specs for that motor, it has just a tad under 300 hours and 325 ish pounds of torque. That is the same that my 5.4 2V has. Apparently it is rated for 14/19 miles per gallon city/highway. Better than the 14 combined I am getting with my 5.4.

If I got this one, I think it would get some chrome running boards. That would take care of the bling down the sides.

That it would Neil. Of course it would Rick. But that stuff can be added after the fact.
