2011 Ford F-150 4x4 SuperCrew - Editor's Notebook - Automobile Magazine
Wow, what a huge difference Ford's new 5.0-liter V-8 makes in the F-150.

Wow, what a huge difference Ford's new 5.0-liter V-8 makes in the F-150. I never really liked the old 5.4-liter V-8 because it was slow to rev, sounded a bit old and coarse, and didn't ever feel as good as the rest of the F-150. The 5.0 sounds great, revs very quickly, and completely changes the character of the most popular pickup in America.
