First of all I know very little about ford trucks, that said I'm looking at a 2001 F150 extended cab with an 8' bed 2WD, it has 4.6 Triton V8. It's basically a work truck with air,tilt, bench seat and 16" wheels.
I want the 2WD basically for mileage, The NADA lists the truck (wholesale) 2000.00 below the asking price of 10,000 and it has 85000 miles on it. can I expect any decent mileage with this motor or a ballpark estimate will do.
Do Fords have a tag on the rear end to denote gear ratio of the unit such as GM, if so where might I look to decipher the code. I don't want to purchase a truck to find out it has a 4.0 something rearend, I will use it for daily transportation, hauling light stuff around the farm and occasionally pulling a popup. thanks for any help you can give me.
