Meaner than ymeski56
You seem to get lemons like Becca does. We have 3 5.4s, one in each generation, and no problems on any of them. Not to mention that the 5.4 the OP is looking at is way past the point where they fixed the known issues. They may not get the best MPG but they're the most proven engine so far since all 4 2011+ engines are only 3 years old.

Which tuner are you using?
The mechanic at a "Classic Auto" place near me told me you can't tune for both so I didn't bother getting one.
Edit:
Example, this says it gets better fuel economy, but nothing for horsepower:

This one gets better power, but no fuel economy:

Please show me one that does both.

Wouldn't be considering that PA will charge more in taxes and other BS than Texas based on my experiences in buying vehicles there and here. The main thing is that 4x4's probably carry a premium done there since it's more of a bragging matter, than a necessity. Would probably bode well for someone trading from a 4x4 to 4x2 when moving back?
