you're going to be repairing it, and getting your hands dirty. 100% guarantee. That's why it's a fraction of the orginal msrp. Same thing as when you had your truck. 4.2s are disposible, 5.4 Spark plugs can be fixed if you follow the tsb and forum info on them. millionmilevan.com has a 5.4 2v with 1.3 million miles on it.

Either you buy brand new every 5 yrs or you save money and buy a cheap older one, read forums, buy tools, get hands dirty and do the repairs yourself. The ones paying someone to get their hands dirty, are the ones complaining it's too much for them.

The last update was like 2 years ago too! I hope that sucker is still running around in one piece somewhere on its way to 2 million . . .
