It's unfortunately the 5.3L Triton V8 but none the less it's one hell of a powerful truck, that's what I learned to drive on and it's such an amazing feeling that my dad is letting me borrow it for a week.
lol it looks like the 4x4 virsion of one of the trucks i had to drive at work sometimes, not much power to the ground with the crew cab longbed. big welder in the bed, 100gal transfer tank & toolboxes packed with junk didin't help, truck got mabe 6-8 MPG, lol. and a dump truck had a better turning radius, lol.
