I'm guessing your truck is a 4x2? I believe that is the vacuum line for the IWE solenoid used on 4x4 models.

It is a 2WD. What is an IWE?

If you follow that hose back, it will wrap up to the drivers valve cover and plug into the vacuum lines by cylinder #4
Bridge is right, it's for the IWE Solenoid
IWE= Integrated Wheel End...aka Hub
Ford got fancy and redesigned the wheel in 2004. Came out with IWE that work great most times...but they can have issues

Cool. Thanks. By the way, the dealership couldn't explain this to me.

Doesn't surprise me, most dealership employees (other than the ones on this forum of course) are F'Tards.
