Looking good! How are you liking the ecoboost in a "work" truck so far?

thx guys, lol its the best of both worlds great street truck for taking it to the track and running some pass's and it looks good in the subdivision covered in mud. The Ecoboost is great on the job site and there are a lot more guys now buying Ecoboost F150's. On the job sites everyone comes to me and ask's me what I have done to the truck so far and what my plans are for the feature. So if you guys are looking for a new truck? Get the F150 with Ecoboost!

p.s and I have NO problems with it in the MUD and in the DUST! The OEM air box works great and keeps all the garbage out of the motor!

Looks good! I am thinking about getting them, I currently have the heavy duty overload shocks with the coil springs and they make the *** end bounce all over and ruin the ride quality.

My total bed weight with my cap, pull out table and all my tools is around 800 lbs. So the air bags help a lot!!! and if I put a trailer on the hitch then the rear end drop's straight to the ground. I have it set at 20 psi right now and it rides great.

So I just finished installing my NewSouth Boost gauge. I wired it to my 4wd switch and it works great. I get vac and boost from the gauge
