Today, ok, yesterday, I installed a new Motorcraft ignition coil (runs great), changed the air filter, cleaned the MAF and TB and changed the oil. 115,550 miles currently.
While I'll be selling and buying a new F150 sooner than later, I'm not sure I'll ever have a more reliable truck. Last week was the first real issue I can think of that it's ever had. P0302 misfire and the new ignition coil fixed that. Old one had multiple cracks from heat.
I can only hope the next truck will be as good as this 4.2 V6. Sure, this truck has no power at all, but it's solid and reliable. That's what matters most to me.

I like that for the most part, you've kept your truck simple looking and not done a ton of mods that anyone besides a true enthusiast would notice (I've said it before, those are the best mods), but you've never skipped a beat on looking after her. Daily driven year round, and she looks better than many garage kept, hardly driven Arizona trucks. Kudos.

Wise, you are. Chrome don't get you home, they say.
