The supercharged 5.4L V-8 REQUIRES 91 octane premium gas, which it drinks at a rate of 1 gallon every 14.9 miles (14.0 or less for the first 40,000 or so miles).
In 2003, $33,400 plus the 7% fee that NJ charges you for the privilege of buying a car was a lot of money for a pickup. Not so much now, though, thanks to the "great" economy.
I actually like it, but people accustomed to riding in their soft, quiet cars find the exhaust a bit loud.
