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.
