2004 heritage
I'm new to forum and have a question about '04 heritage. How
is the 4.6l in towing and all around mpg? I'm thinking of trading my '99 f150 4x2 extcab 4.2l v6 truck for '04 4x4 extcab 4.6l v8.
I love the ride and room of '99, but not the power.So I'm hoping for some input of what the 4.6l v8 in a 4x4 extcab. I mostly run
highway miles, and only towing is mostly my boat. Boat may be in
the 1500/1800 lb range. The '99 4.2l v6 tows ok until you get in
the hills, then it lacks the ponys.Any input would be helpful.

Hi and welcome to the forum 
It should tow that boat OK. Make sure that it has 3.55 or 3.73 gears.
From what I have read on gas mileage, they range from 12 to 18 depending on driving style and climate.
