I would give my left nut to put an ecoboost in my current truck. Might throw in my arm too for a new one.

Default Saleen

I would go with the Saleen, thats a good deal on it plus more power out of the hole. I have heard a lot of good things about ECO boost, but when I bought a truck I already had plans of not getting good gas mileage so I don't let it bother me that much

How do you figure that it has more power? He said it's not supercharged...

No f150 ever made has more low end torque than the eco boost. A supercharged truck has 3k rpm and up torque where as turbos make low end

Google images is your friend. I have seen a few done up nicely. Not sure if they are lowered but there has been some nice ones.

Or go on ford and build one with the fx2 appearance package it looks sporty.
