how do you figure the 4.7 struggles? my 05 the day i drove it off the lot spun both tires down the street. and to this day it still smokes both tires at any given stop sign or street light. this truck has more power than my 5.2 ever had. and it gets better mpg.
mine too, it actually pulls at high speed better than my old 5.9 off road did
