i think its the v6/auto thats the lousy combo. the v6/5sp seems to be ok. the 4.6/5sp combo was killer!

really... thats great if it does man, my old v6 wasnt the greatest, in my opinion it wasnt worth the lack of power for the v6 for the gas mileage it didnt get..

if that makes sense?

Ya it's a '05 f150 reg cab 2wd with a topper on it. I figured the mileage on the way home. just highway, and it got 19.5 with the wind at my back. My 5.4 gets just as good, mabe even better mileage and has much more power and is a 4X4.

It sounds like the 5.4 is the way to go.

After having a 4.6 liter I sure dont mind those engines either. They dont have the power of a 5.4 but they do get better mileage.

Hell id take any one of them for the right cheap price though

i love my 4.6l... mileage is decent, power is decent...reliability has been superb!! the next truck, if its a 1/2 ton, could very well be a 4.6 but the 4v or whatever the higher power one is...unless Marlon's dad doesn't want his '07...
