I don't know how big the hp difference is from 3.0 to the 4.0, but the 3.0 is terrible, he only gets 15mpg too, and very cramped interior, i wouldn't buy one. one time i reached over and floored it on the highway, it did so little it was downright embarrassing for him, i actually felt bad. lol

Most reliable vehicle we have own was a 90's F150. I think it was a 95? But man, that thing wouldn't die. It always had atleast 500lbs of crap in the back and the odometer has rolled twice. Has probably 800k miles on it. We sold it a long time ago, but we still see it driving around. Can't beat that

the odometer dont go to 999999? if not, it goes to 99999 and that would mean it rolled 8 times.

Honda's sucks, Toyota's suck and dodge are plain cheep, low quality and normally wont last you like a Chevy or ford(excluding fords diesels) will, Chevys normally have more power than ford. don't buy a newer truck, there aint nothing more reliable than a 88-95 Chevy pickup with a 350/454 tbi... nothing. no other comes close as far as aftermarket and cheep as hell to work on, there aint a foreign piece of crap out there that can beet an old 350. I'm not a ford fan at all but the older fords with the 4.9 in line 6 will pretty much last forever, just not as nice as an equal year Chevy. pretty much any American made pickup with an i6 is normally reliable
rangers suck, i can barely fit in one and the ext cab is a joke.
