Agreed - and as you point out most of the longevity is with the 4.6 2V engine - they are an awesome engine as long as you aren't expecting a lot of power. The 4.6 3 valve engines seem to be a lot more solid than the 5.4 3 valve engines - the cam phasers on the 5.4 are huge issue that Ford seems content with ignoring and hoping it goes away as these trucks get older. The cost of fixing the cam phasers runs about $1600 on up - depending on the situation. If you run them till they lose time and the piston hits the valves you are looking at a new engine. If they are not in to bad of shape some people have luck with locking them up (doing away with the variable timing) with a kit that isn't to expensive.
