I have a 2001 V10 on a F53 with 50k miles it has been one dependable engine. Runs smooth and has required no non routine maintenance. (Oil changes etc) I pull 20 k pounds plus 3k for the towed vehicle. The only downside compared to diesel is less torque and I routinely get passed by diesel pushers on long grades. The gas mileage runs about 6 MPG at 60 mph a bit lower than I would like also. But overall for a gas engine I am totally pleased.
