I have a 2000 V10, no driveline problems, 13-15 mpg around town. Have to keep it under 2000 RPM. I would buy another when it's time, and recomend it to anyone who ask's.

Everyone here has given good accurate information - I have an 03' CC SB V10 with the 3.73s. with 25,300miles on the clock I have had zero problems with the engine. I've had multiple problems with other things but as far as the V10 goes you cann't go wrong. My average Econ. is at 11-13mpg with a high of 15.6mpg and a low of 8.7 towing a boat. Like others have said come down to the V10 forum and join BSEG club that the rest of us just cann't get rid of. Like fred posted ealier theres nothin like 10 burning and 4 turning.

They tell me I own an '05' V-10 SC/SD longbed Lariat. I drove it for a couple of hours out of the showroom.(tell him Jeff) Well anyway the dealer has had the truck ever since and the next step is to replace the PCM 'cause it won't run. OH, I'm a happy new Ford owner!!!!!!!!!!!

I've been driving light trucks for over 30 (!) years, and my V10 is the first that accelerates like a sports car. BSEG's every day!
