I would see what's wrong. If they don't tell you run. The motors are known to have cam phasor issues. The only GOOD 5.4 is the 2 valve and 4 valve IMO.

You could see if they have receipts for replacing those parts already

All 3v 5.4 don't have cam phasor issues.

Well, ....... Yes and no. I like that it's more than likely got a lot of life left , but my low mileage says I'm not having as much fun with it as I should. It's a double edged sword .

Are you having problems?

I average 6k a year on my truck and have lots of fun. I also have my car that averages 7k a year

Lol! No, no problems, just need more time and money to add some "more" good time miles on her. Just put another 500 on it for a nice weekend taking my oldest back to college. Got the chance to get on some back country roads and cross a couple a streams even while the wife and daughter were shopping for some dorm room stuff .

Good ole dorm room shopping. I remember it well.

How were her grades?

She did real well , we are proud of her. Last year was her freshman year. 3.2 first semester, and deans list for second semester with a 3.75 or 73. I guess she would've made it first semester also, but a required math class where she pulled a c messed her up . She's no mathlete(lol)and was happy she passed the class and so were we. Even with the c she still did well.
