Yeah, like the ecotards being butthurt that so many guys still prefer the v8, so they dress up their butthurt in a superiority complex

Ya I know, and I also know that no ecoboost on this forum could out tow me or beat me on the strip so I'm happy with my 6.2 (556hp 532 ft/lb) thanks for coming out Eco lovers

An example of an inane and pointless comment. Anyone who uses the term ecotard must be feeling butt hurt. I really don't give a **** if your hooked up with a Briggs &Stratton, as long as a guy is happy with his truck doing what he wants to do. What difference does it make what I or anyone else thinks about your choice of engine. Oh, and here's the obligatory smiley face so you know I'm not serious.

I betcha [MENTION=138568]scap99[/MENTION] would be close. Less HP but more torque. Other than that it's hard to out power a sc 6.2l.

Isn't there more v6 f150's on the road than v8's? Or has that changed recently?

Seriously, who cares about drag racing a truck? I don't see the point.. If you want to go fast you could spend a fraction of the cost and get a much faster car..

Do you actually tow with that truck? I'm guessing if you really cared about towing you wouldn't have supercharged it and potentially grenade the engine... In my mind the truck that wins at towing is the truck that reliably gets the load around using the least fuel. Maybe that is just crazy talk though.

Also, your FI 6.2 doesn't really carry relevance to a thread where the op is asking to get an ecoboost or a v8. We get it though, your truck dick is bigger

At least they've got themselves impressed :-)
There is an incredible amount of 5.0 propaganda and Eco bashing in these threads and it's typical of guys like you to turn a blind eye to it.

You've always been a super kind of special...

I think you may be the biggest v8 fan boy around. You get so mad if anyone comes down on the V8 that everything you say is incoherent and jumbled. It's like your so made that you can't get out what you want to say because your pounding your keyboard.

See a doctor and get some Prozac...you might just stoke out.

I've towed my boat with it but nothing more, I would never buy a gas truck to pull a heavy load it's just stupid. And I haven't grenaded the engine after 75 000 Kms of it being supercharged. And I think this post has gone past the v8 vs ecoboost haha anyway I'm done
