Well either its been swapped or he's lying, it should be a D60. My F150 has a 9 in out back, and my F250 has a D60. The only D44's used in 3/4 tons were in the front, my F250 has one

Terrible motor? Where do you get that idea? The 300 I6 is a torquey, darn near indestructible engine if treated right. They even have a lot of potential for HP with a little boost.

I wouldn't keep one when I can easily build up a 400 or a 460

zactly, i drove those motors alot, they can handle alot when it's thrown at it. i've never seen one but i know that they can be built pretty stout.
EDIT: if they hate their motors so much, why don't they swap out?

If they would have came with a 4 barrel from the factory, I bet more people would have kept them.
I've seen a couple of built 300 and I agree they can be good motors, but you have to build them to it

idk if i could hack that truck up id want to restore it and for 700 its tempting, it would be amazing on some 37's with that flat bed ummmmmm but yes that 300 is an amazing engine i still keep my eye out for older f-150's with a 300 for a daily but no luck
