Default What do you WANT to be driving?

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, plusI 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 inthe 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.
