weird Vin
I ran the vin thru the decoder thats on here and it says I have 5.4 but I dont have the w or the 6 that I read would tell me a romeo or windsor engine
Did they build them anywhere else?

Another thing, its listed on the title as a 99, has a build date of 8/99 but under the vin it shows 260 hp and they didnt bump it up till the 2000 model year
Normally i would care less but I want to make sure its not going to be a issue getting parts as some change between years

There are two VIN Code 8 squares in the link I listed. The 1st is for pass cars, 2nd for trucks under 11000lbs. 2nd square in "VIN Code 8th position" shoes it 15th spot down saying it's a windsor engine 235-260 hp.
