jeff51, sounds like you have a nice truck. finding a 4x4 truck with a stick is hard to come by... but definetly worth it.... + I've always liked the 97-04 bodystlye F150's the best.

 

WTF!?!?!?

What happened to the white 4.6?

 

what white 4.6? wtf

 

I have a friend that is some what of a know it all, its funny because he bought his first ford (01 v6 4x4 manual) about a year ago and he thinks he knows EVERYTHING about them. He argues with me to death that the supercab 5.4's came with a manual transmission, I hunted high and low forever to find a 5.4 with a manual before i bought mine and finally settled for an automatic. Further research showed me that i wouldnt find one, and i have told him where to look it up but he refuses lol. I love manuals, i had a toyota tacoma with a 5 speed and i loved it, but i love ford trucks so i bought mine and gave my dad my toyota.

 

my bad. i was tired and got your s/n confused with another person's on here. :o

continue while I go flog myself.

 

I have a 97 xlt 4.2 4x4 5speed, I love it because I have 3 girls and none of them want to drive it!

 

give em time and they will. ive had to teach all my gf's to drive it cuz theyve all wanted to know how to and thought it was cool

 

how many people out there

 

All three of my Fords are stick.

 

Pat had to point out a typo error because hes not cool enough to drive a stick-shift truck

 

Yes, but only in the Super Duty, it's a ZF, not a M5OD.

 

mine is a 4.6 with a stick...... it gets old shiftin gears , but it helps pull my tires alot better than a auto would

 

i love my M5OD standard transmission

 

agreed 100%

 

F-250s came with 5.4s and 6-speeds, the ZF S6-650. So it is entirely possible to take any 5.4 powered F-150/Expedition and convert it to a manual with the proper bits and pieces.

Expeditions never came with manual transmissions, so obviously I don't have one. Would be interesting to make a manual Expedition, though. If I went to that much trouble, it would certainly be a 5.4/ZF combo.

Aside from the Expedition, though, all my cars have been 5-speeds. The only 5-speed truck I've driven was a GMC C1500 with a 4.3 and the damn thing couldn't get out of its own way...
