Greetings! Which of these two engines is more long lasting and
reliable in a F150 pickup truck? I am thinking of buying a new 2004
F-150 in future? I can not decide which engine is to choose? With
thanks.

They are basicly the same engine, like comparing the 302W to the 351W.

They both have been around for awhile, but to very different degrees.
The new 5.4L uses the 3 valve technology and quite a few other things,
whereas the 4.6L is almost exactly the same as last year, with a few
minor bugfixes. The 4.6L is more refined, while the 5.4L contains much
newer technology.
