I was at work the other day, on a Ford Dealer exlusive website, and they have released the power specs of these 3 new motors.


5.0-360 horsepower, 380 pound-feet of torque and 9,800 pounds of towing capacity

3.7-liter V6 generates an estimated 300 horsepower, 275 pound-feet of torque and 6,100 pounds of towing capacity

6.2-liter 411 horsepower, 434 pound-feet of torque and 11,300 pounds of towing capacity

I forget the EcoBoost ratings but its like 360 horse power, and 250 ft of torque, or something close to that. The site is not working right now to look it up, but if it gets going again, I will repost

the first few are at least believable. but come on the last one, did you even think that out before you made it up?

edit: on fords website the official numbers are posted for the first 3. and those are teh correct numbers and capacities. but the last one is entirely made up.
theres no official listing for its hp and torque yet. however for the fact sheet ford posted its showing hte same towing capacity as the 6.2. so i would expect similar power/torque.

Here is an August 2010 article from Car & Driver talking about the new 2011 F150 engine line-up.

I have been searching, and found that FORD believes the Ecoboost will produce close to 400hp, and near 400 ft/tq. So I was a little off.

It also says in that article, that the ecoboost has the tow capacity of the 6.2 and 365hp. I didnt make the numbers up....

The 5.0 'Coyote' engine, while great, isn't the engine I would want to replace the 5.4 in my truck. The torque is made MUCH higher than the 5.4, which is exactly NOT what one wants in a truck.

The only viable replacement for the 5.4 is the 6.2, frankly.

so i was a little off on the torque, like I said I couldnt remember

ford_honda

why would you not want a truck with alot of torque?

I would way rather have more torque then horse power. Torque makes driving fun!
