Moving from a good e53 4.4 to an unknown e53 4.8 is not a financially sound decision. That doesn't mean it shouldn't or can't be done, it just means don't try and justify it being a wise financial move. You either just decide the extra $10k is worth the personal benefit of the 4.8 or it isn't.
how could a fully loaded car that is lower production and hadre to find have a lower depreciation than a truck u can find a dime a dozen? as far as performance handling and sound. no similarities. Gas milage is similar. 1mpg different.
