Does it have new coil packs? If not, it soon will. Once one goes out, suck it up and buy all 8 (at $50+ a pop) because you're going to spend that money over the next year. I speak from experence. Other than that, everything has been pretty good on my F150 (same motor and driveline)

Have you done anything exhaust or intake wise?

Nope, don't see the need to. I'm only using it for towing. It'd just be a waste of money.

i'm thinking if you could get a good intake you might be able to pay for it in gas savings. i don't think you could get much out of the exhaust though.

changing the coil packs sure sucked
i watched andrew do it without helping

Doubt you'll see any gas savings from an intake honestly and even then its not going to be that much, esp towing. That's why I own two other vehicles which get good gas mileage and have a higher fun factor.
