I certainly hope so! Be a great option instead of the problematic diesels!
I agree, also the extra $8000 for a diesel and high maintenance cost I would rather have Fords V-10 in a truck.
The V-10 in my work truck averages 5.5 mpg! Granted it's in a heavy utility truck.
Great motor, but waaay to thirsty.
In an RV application they average 8 depending on how you drive! My 02 by itself on the hwy gets 14.2. It used to get 15 when it had 3.73's. They are not as bad as people make them out to be. Unless you drive it like a hotrod! Or it's a fully loaded work truck!
And I'll bet that V-10 has been in the shop far less than its diesel brother!
