thought about getting a 2006 5.4 lariat but when i started reading about the spark plug issues and the cost involved in the repair i rethunk me intentions. do i want a payment on a truck that is almost sure to throw a plug out a cylinder or break off trying to change, or do i want a truck i can pay cash for and i know was well maintained and has useful life ahead? as you can see i choose the later

mines never spat a plug, knock on wood. but i understand your decision. it doesnt need anything bigger than a 4.6 if its a 2wd anyways
