5.0 ecoboost would have met everyone's needs.

Anyone notice yet on the Ford website it says Available Fall of 2016. This truck is still 2 freaking years away.

To me its no different than wanting a Mustang GT with a 5.0 V8.


I don't care about the EB motor, its not what I want. I work with EB engines on a daily basis, yes they are great engines and they make lots of power and torque, but its not what I want.
Why do you like chocolate milk when plain milk will do? Its just a preference, no one beating their dam chest.
I don't judge people for what they want or prefer.

I'd much rather have the ecoboost, I have one now and for 350 bucks I can make this truck scream vs the addons I'd have to do with a V8. I like the sound of turbo whistle much more than a v8 rumble. But it's me and if we were all the same life would suck. Looking forward to getting one of these.
