The 4.6L motor has a much better reputation then the 5.4L. You should not see much difference between them using a pickup as you described.
The year range you listed (1998-2002) had many problems with the Ford 5.4 engines spitting out spark plugs and ruining cylinder heads. A very good friend has a 1999 F250 and he had the plugs come out at 67K. He replace both cylinder heads. At 97K the right cylinder head cracked and over heated the motor. He had a new long block installed and has not had any more issues. What really was unusual is that his truck is used very lightly, rarely ever pulls a trailer or hauls anything heavy. He also has had a lot of trouble with the four wheel disk brakes. He has had to replace the rear calipers twice already. They seem to stick and not adjust. I have heard that you need to use the parking brake to keep the linkage freed up on the adjusters.
