If you love what you drive now (like I do) are you satisfied with it? What do you want or have done to it? If you could have what you want what would it be?

1. I really lie my 2002 5.4L 4wd. Just ask our sales lady. She's been trying to have me lease another truck.
2. I would love to put an aluminum block 4v motor in it someday. Also I would like to lower it for beter handling. A 4wd low rider????
3. If I could afford it I would also have a Mustang. It would be a newer one and stick a 5.4L in it.

I have a 01 f250 4x4 supercab with the 5.4. I dont like the 5.4 because, in comparison to my stock 5.0 in my eddie bauer, it loses on both ends. Better gas milage in the 5.0, plus I smoke it off the line and burry the speedo much faster in the 5.0. Sure the EB is much lighter, short box standard cab, but i'd think the 100+ additional horses in the 01 would make at least a showing. Which brings to question if the 3 valve heads would fit the 01 block.
I know the ford trucks are built quite a bit heavier then their tin foil disposable counterparts, but 12 mpg is a bit hard to deal with.
I haven't blown a plug in the 01 yet, but have no fear of it in the 95.
Now that diesel is 50 cents a gallon higher then regular, I dont see me in a diesel anytime soon either.

I would like to have a new Town Car with a direct injection turbo diesel and I would like to see the old 429 brought back although updated with direct injection and twin turbo`s then put it in a new Mustang Shelby GT.
