After reading all of this I'm glad that of the 3 Fords around here 2 have the 300 I6 and one has a 302 v/8. OLD stuff! They are not very fancy and all have manual window cranks (but 2 have a/c :) and are good rigs but the 302 only has 58k on it ('84 F150, SB, 2WD, auto, a/c AND no rust-thru) so we'll see how long it goes.
AS for 'heavy hauling' I've got a '69 K20 Chevy w/4.11s, 4-speed and a 292 I6; it's not fast but gets the job done.

Is it all in the name of 'better mileage' and/or 'creature comforts'? As for me I'm sticking with what works - style, ABS, backup cameras, bluetooth connectivity, etc. be hanged!.....BUT, that's just me. 8)
