Funny you should mention the F150 .... mine is a 2003 Screw with the 5.4 engine ( 112,000 miles ) . Nothing special , anti sway bars front and rear , Bilstein shocks , good brakes ( I tow ) and a retuned ECM . This truck has surprised more than a few cars ..... even the trucks today are really decent handlers if you care to push them .
Definitely beats my `63 1/2 427 Galaxie on the turn department .
