v10's are gas pigs but they tow very well and are very reliable, I'll second 05 up, the 3v v10 is much better than the 2v version and you get the 5 speed trans. the ford v10 reliability is right up there with the 7.3 diesel, I even saw an airport shuttle van with almost 900k, but 250-400k+ is very common for the Ford V10 if maintained. Again its a gas pig, my 09 rarely gets over 12 mpg's hwy. But towing my 30 ft toyhauler 7-8 mpgs.
