    Curious, anyone here got a 3v 4.6 lifted on 35" tires?

    Wondering what the MPG is like, performance, etc.

    Yeah it's a nice truck. Unique color. Don't see gold f150's often at all.

    Decent price for the year/miles to.

    Thinking about ditching my ranger and sled for it.

    I like that its the 4.6 as well.

    Yeah. I don't think I've ever seen that color before around here.

    In my own imaginary world, where. Respect for wome
    i'd have to go w/ it being a level kit, and not a body kit. i know i got real good mileage on my 06 4.6L after I ran some 275/65/20 tires instead of the 35/12.5/20. I was getting about 500mi/ on a full tank, mixed driving of around 65% hwy/35% city.

    I know the new 4.6 3v is supposed to get just a bit better economy than the 2v. w/ a great tune and some minor add-ons, youd have a reliable/powerful DD IMHO.

    Yeah that's what I'm thinking. I drive 70 miles one way on my commute. But I need a truck. So I'd like as good MPG as possible. I'm assuming 5 star has a tune for the 4.6.

    I'd google it, but I'm at work and my phone is slow lol.

    As long as its not worse than my ranger is. I'll be happy.
    I'm getting 15-16 in the range during winter.

    If its all highway driving with a tune you should be about the same maybe a bit better. I would think 5 start would have something for ya
