2005 was the first year of the 5.4L 3V V8, quite powerful at 300hp and 365 ft-lb torque, and backed by a 4 speed automatic.

Today, a V6 EcoBoost makes 65 more horsepower and 55 more ft-lb torque, yet gets 3 mpg better around town (partially thanks to two more gears in the transmission). And it tows a whole lot more than your 2005.


Matt likes his, maybe just wait a few minutes and he'll sell it to you
