Bad assumption.
5.4L Iron Block + huge, heavy heads + Supercharger/hardware = 3900+lb car.
The new 5.0L is also rumored to be an aluminum block this time around, so it should keep its heft down, unlike the iron block 5.4L.
I think the live axle will stay, because it saves their price point, and I'm saying it'll be ~3650lbs.
