Cooper,
If you live where we do (Colorado) the high altitude package is what is required. I am getting 17 MPG combined on a 60/40 Highway vs City driving. Two trips one over Loveland Pass (12,000ft) and another over Berthoud Pass along with Eisenhower tunnel have really impressed me. Power is fantastic, pleanty of reserve, no "bogging down" a real strong runner. I would suggest the 5.4L V-8 engine. I believe the above mentioned experiences would be much less with the 4.6L V-8.
F-150 XLT Super Crew, 4X4, Deep Wedgewood Blue/Arizona Beige, 17" tires & Wheels, 5.4L V-8, Power Drivers Seat, Limited Slip, Side Steps, Extang Tonneau, ETC
