Just got a 2003 F150 super crew cab. She's a little beat. Should do the truck stuff I want to do though. Went with a 5.4 2v since the 4.6 in my TownCar is a dependable modular. Figured I would stick with the same family. Well looking for advice here on fixing her up a bit. So look forward to hearing what you guys have to say.

The spark plugs blowing out was an issue on your year 5.4
Save up money for that repair someday and just do it
Same with the timing chain, tensioner and guides. Save now for later repairs
Use it, drive it and have fun in the meantime
