Thank you, yes this truck has the 454. I've never checked mpg though it isn't very good. Usually I use it when I need to tow or haul something and the weather is nice. Mostly it sits right there in the heated shop. Last year I put about 400 miles on it, currently sitting at 93k miles. We've owned this one about 17 years, purchased as I mentioned from the original owner. He bought it new when he lived in Las Vegas and used it week ends to haul his horses to events. Mostly it sat in his garage...so the truck is clean and rust free.

Good luck with yours. Have fun, ask questions and get that one back on the road.
