It looks like a pretty clean truck and should run pretty good with the 5.4 in it.
Later Mark.

I bet it's probably a high 15 second truck in the 1/4 mile.I say this because i had a 2007 F-150 Supercab 4X4,5.4 3V,4 Speed auto and 3.55 gears ran a 16.65 at 83 mph in the 1/4 mile.I now have a 2010 F-150 Supercab 4X4,4.6 3V,6 Speed auto and 3.73 gears and to my suprise it ran a 16.25 at 84.89 mph.Any how nice looking truck and enjoy it,Later Mark.

That truck looks sharp !
For the last 2 years I have been looking at 2005-2008 models with the shortbed, reg. cab, 2wd to make a hot rod pickup.
I wasn't aware until now that the 5.4 came in the 2wd, reg. cab, SWB trucks.

u could add gears..some headers and good mufflers..a chip and tune..injectors..pullies..cold air intake..and run decent for stock..not sure how much similarities the normal 5.4 is compared to the lighting 5.483-88T-Bird Guy wrote:That truck looks sharp !

Whats the gas mileage on it? My brother has one of the Harley editions and it gets 12-13. I'm on the lookout for a truck and trying to keep up with what mileage different ones get.
