I know it is a 48re. Not sure who made it and I have no idea what axles either. I wanted an auto because I already own a stick and didn't want two. If I turn up power the driveline will be a concern but it should hold up at stock levels. The dealership where I bought this truck actually let me take an 11 superduty to go get the house. I can't speak for reliability, but the power was BADASS! The gas mileage sucked but that thing hauled ass it got 14 on the highway and 12 pulling. My dodge gets 20 and 11 pulling, but that ford would have killed it in a quarter and probably top end too. No doubt.
Yes, the StupidDuties do get down with the program when it comes to moving, but yep, the mpg sucks. Our 6.0's at the airport hauled ass too, when they ran for the weight they were carrying.
