Which plug is the best for the 4.7L?
I'm leaning towards the Bosch Platinum Ir Fusion plugs, but I also trust Champion a lot better.
The big thing about the new Bosch's is they combine Platinum and Iridium in the core.

Can anyone suggest what they know or use?

I have read many times that our plugs in the 4.7 where gaped wrong from the factory. I have not pulled my plugs yet to check them. I do know if they are all over the place then that would be a problem. I will end up changing them out round 30k but with what I’m not sure until the suggestions point to a plug that seems to work well for most. Autolite always got good reviews by owners and platinum’s always where over rated especially for the money.

A quick explaination of why platinum - With it as part of the electrode, the plugs can run hotter without burning the electrode. Hotter plugs burn the carbon deposits off better than colder plugs. Advertizing 100,000-mile plug life is viewed as a good thing.
Personally I have tried Autolite 3923s and while the engine runs smoother with them, I suspect that I can get better performance with a different plug. I'll swap another brand in as tima allows and complre results.

i had the platnum plugs for about 1 month and got rid of them. i lost between 45/50 miles to a tank of gas. went back to the factory champions and got my milage back but every now and then the truck would idle funny at a stop sign or traffic light. swithced out the factory champions for the autolite 3293 and what a difference. much smoother idle and still the same great gas milage. other thing i noticed is with the a/c on and you stomp on it the truck doesnt hesitate like the champions did. squats the *** end and away you go. these are good plugs and will be keeping them all 8 at walmart were 10.50. the plats were like 3.50 a plug for garbage.
