Thanks fellas! I know now why people may not be getting the mileage out of their 2.7's as the sticker says. Man, hard to stay out of the gas!

Peppy for such a little engine.

Had an '06 and an '09 with the 4.6 and it is nowhere near this engine.

Nice looking truck, good luck with it. Is that a 2wd or did you take off the 4x4 decals like a few have done here?

Nice truck OP!

I took the decals off my 05 when I bought it. Living in the desert & planning to keep the truck for 10+ yrs I did not want to deal with bad decals later on
