Mileage ratings for both V8 engines are the same and 87 octane is fine. Some folks switch to a tank of premium for towing.

Had a 2004 V6 and now have a 2006 V8. Both engines were great. Never thought the V6 lacked power, but never towed with either truck either.

Good luck with your search.

Thank you for your response!
 
Thank you for all responses again, I appreciated, bur I have more questions:

1) This truck has X-reas, if I want to lift it up to 2 inches can I do it with out removing x-reas.
2) What would be the most inexpensive way to lift it (1.5-2 inches).
3) Truck has 17

My honest opinion about suspension: I only buy cars with the ole' regular set-ups, simply because of costs when repairs are needed. I've always found a pretty susbstantial cost difference to repair a normal setup then a tricky or tweaked one, like air suspension and x-reas. From what I've read on here "which is my only experience with x-reas", it seems like when one item goes bad, it usually requires a few extra connected to it. Air suspension? Forget it, will never have it, costs way too much.

I don't know about lift ability with the x-reas set up, but I believe I do recall reading somewhere on here about it not being the ideal setup to manipulate with lifting, etc...
