If its going to be a daily, the 5.0L V8 is a little more fuel efficient from what I've seen in terms of numbers reported (my truck is an '14 FX4 and gets 17mpg in the winter and 18mpg in the summer, 14-15mpg towing). If you bump up to a 2015, you can look into the 2.7 Ecoboost which is supposed to be a more fuel efficient and still great torque for towing.

Started a little disassembly last night. Already gathering a little pile of parts.
Anyone have any advice on what to do for the tank vent when all this evap crap is removed? Just leave the hose VTA?

Kmiata's post made me motivated to pull my engine out. Looks like I probably won't be able to sell it before their new swap kit is released though.
I got it all ready to come out, then decided it probably wasn't the best idea to start removing it at 11:30 last night. If everything works out, hopefully I'll get it out tonight.
