Hey DennisOdom. The 8th number in your VIN will show what engine you have. For the 302 cu.in./5.0 liter(4942cc), it'll be an N code. If you need help reading the whole VIN #, just post it and someone here will help you break it down. Enjoy this site!

1993 F-150 4x4 5.0L EFI 5spd. Silver Shortbed..Kelly Safari AWR tires,K&N Air filter,Cat-Back Exhaust.

Question

What kind of millage can I really expect to get with this truck... It is all stock with a 302 (i guess) with 4 wheel drive and an automatic transmission with overdrive... (i am the slowest driver you've ever been stuck behind - meaning I dont hot rod any more)
