Help with Buying Decision

Hello people, Im new here but would appreciate any input you all could give me. Im thinking of buying an '04 F-150 FX4 SuperCab from the dealer. Its a demo with a small lift, 20" rims and Im not sure of the tires but they are bigger tires. Im wondering if this is a good choice, and what the gas mileage might be? Do these trucks get good gas mileage with factory wheels and tires and do these trucks have a decent resale value?

Lots of questions in there. The set up sounds nice, but watch for them to rip you off for the mods. You can do them cheaper yourself later. There are TONS of posts and threads in here to research the mileage and tire sizes. Good luck!
