Default thnking of trading no resolution to current issue

Have a. 05. 5.4 scab. .. 152k. May look at another 05 5.4 170k screw. Worth looking at or will. I be in the same position I'm in now.. or I'll look at a dodge.. prob is high mileage vehicles often have many issues. Want an 09 f150 but can't afford the 20k... opinions.?

Don't look at a truck with more miles that's point less on my opinion. But If you really want to that's up to you. Look for an 07+ you could find them with less miles for a good price. Dodge transmissions are not the best my friend has one and he's on his 3rd tranny.

Yea, I had a rough idle issue and after I cleaned the MAF and throttle body, it was fixed! You'd be suprised how much cleaning, even if its just a lil bit, can do to fix that issue!
