These ol' beasts do have their advantages. I can stand in the engine bay, change my oil without jacks or laying down, pull the engine in 20 min by myself, and my registration is $42/year.

I had a 5.4 for a little while. when they told me it would cost like $300 to repair one failed plug/coil.....I decided an old truck might be OK....
4 years and $30k later.....Iv'e got an old truck that's still in the shop....:-)
what was I trying to say?
