How long did it take you to realize you were pulling it?

Ken: So from what u saw they are basically the same as on the 08's 5.4?? Do u think ford has just tweaked the computer to get a few extras horses?? Thanx

Those things can be a pain to change.
"environmentally friendly" That was their way of saying it nicely. If the cap is not on all the way it leaks gas fumes, fails a OBDII test and turns the check engine light on. Pretty simple to tighten a gas cap but some people get in a hurry.

Any way back to the new truck, I like it.

There were minor differences externally. Seemed the throttle body was different... but I'm positive what I saw is not what is going to end up in production. Ford was very careful not to let us open the hoods on the trucks. The only engine I saw was on an open frame.
