04 to 05 Crew cab weight diff= +230lbs
So the truck gained AT LEAST 430lbs That could be why it was a little slower.

05, four inch diomond eye exhast strait piped, hypertech max energy always on level 2, modified turbo. 85000 miles, getting 24 mpgs no issues with anything except the auto hubs getting chewed up. very fast truck for not being heavily modified, im happy with it. just like LUKESDIESEL said it is hit or miss it seems. my boss has an 04 with an edge programer. he get 13 mpgs and it doesent have the power it should in my mind. i was and still am a 7.3 man, but the 6.0 is a decent motor too.

check sig for mods
25,000 miles on odometer
only problem was leaking oring on fuel tank. ford blamed it on me trying to COMPLETELY fill the tank on long hauls so i stoped and never hapened again.
deleting the egrvalve from the equation helps out a lot with the head gasket problems as does a set of arp headstuds
