. I've pulled 15k with mine and was plenty happy. Even if it uses a little more fuel I don't regret have the V10 at all. Nothing better than cheap, simple preventive maintenance and enjoying life.

I towed A F450 dump in 08 with a V10, and a leaking radiator. Only had 900 miles on it. I haven't heard of a leaky V10 radiator since.

My 2008 V-10 is a Job 2 truck and it is the best running truck from Ford that I have ever owned, including IDI and 2 7.3's. I have the stock 4.10 and it kicks butt, so the 4.30 gears should be an even better tow beast. Don't forget that 75% of the Class C RV motor homes are running V-10's and the new TroqueShift tranny is is the best in the business. The tow/haul feature is fantastic. I would also recommend the Airaid intake system and the DiabloSport Predator programmer set in the "middle" 91 octane setting. It rocks.
