[@inline9jake858]

5.0 way better

[@Samuel-zl7yw]

I’m glad some people are giving the 5.4 some credit it deserves. However besides the sound, the 5.0 f150 setup is superior in every other way as far as power and speed go. I have a 2002 f150 5.4 with 115,000 miles. Not quick, but always has torque when I need it and it has never left us stranded. I recently got a 2004 4Runner with the 4.0 v6 that pulls quite harder than the truck. But that’s partly due to the lower power to weight ratio and diff ratio. The 5.4 also gets decent gas mileage for trucks of that era. Both are 4 speeds. I think it would be interesting to see the 5.4 paired up with a better transmission with more gears than the inefficient 4 and 6 speed autos.

[@georgeeno_2815]

Exactly my thoughts, i have a 04 F-150 5.4 4speed and first gear is the one where you can feel all that torque and basically the only gear where it actually pulls once it hits 2nd it’s like it gives up😂

[@Samuel-zl7yw]

@@georgeeno_2815 I have a 2002 Supercrew FX4 with the 5.4. Different years but I also agree. 1st gear, especially when in 4low, makes me feel like I have all the torque of a diesel, but 2nd gear falls asleep. I think it’s because of the drastic change in the gear ratio. I think the 4 speed is outdated in terms for acceleration. I wonder if the newer 5.4s with the 6 speeds are any more fun to drive.
