Anyone regret getting the 5.0 and wish they could trade for a 3.5 Ecoboost?

Not me... Love the coyote character. Sure... buy the numbers the 3.5EB is the logical choice, but if you want the utility of a truck most of the time but crave a little racy pony car once in a while, the F150 with the coyote is a nice fit. Bumping up to sport mode and tromping the throttle is a sweet experience and even if it isn't as fast as a Mustang... the sound and rush of acceleration is enough to satisfy the craving. Before my purchase I drove almost identical trucks back to back, loaded up screws, one with 3.5EB and the other with the 5.0... you can't deny the low end grunt and tow capability of the 3.5EB, it's an impressive engine.. but when I hit the throttle on an I65 on-ramp in the 5.0, the decision was made.
