I own a 2008 F-350, extended cab, long bed, 5.4, 4x4, auto, 4:10 gears. Previous truck was a F-250 with a 460/4:10 combo.
The 2008 only has 4500 miles on it, so break in is not complete. I'm getting 14.5 mpg(hand calculated) with the cruise set at 70 mph and 11+ around town. It has good off the line acceleration and passing at highway speeds is no problem.
In my opinion, the 5.4 needs 4:10 gears. I could not imagine liking this truck if it had 3:73's and if I was getting a crew cab I think it might be a wise choice to get the V-10. My truck is heavy and the CC is even worse.
