Ah no problem :) I saw the V8 emblem on the front and thought it might be an early '99 powerstroke 7.3 (was going to send you some e99 info) but you have the Triton 5.4 so even less worries. Sorry I've got diesel on the brain.
The 5.4 is going to be great for you and a TC. Enough oomph for the load but not too much displacement to suck down the gas. We oil-heads like to say the PSD 7.3 is the ultimate low maintenance engine but in a Ford the modular gas engines are really the best for low maintenance. A buddy of mine has the V10 and he leads a very simple life when it comes to taking care of the truck.
Keep the fluids and filters changed and all the basic chassis stuff and you'll have a great time!
