In the case of the Hardly crowd, a more comfortable bike than any other manufacturer. Harley's and F150s have one thing in common, those that can't afford them bash them. BTW, my "Hardly" is quieter than a lot of metrics from the facotry.

I also had 2 previous Super Cab 4X4 F-150's with the 3.5L Eco Boost.I didn't consider the 2.7L at first but drove the 2.7L Eco Boost and 5.0 truck on the same day came home with the 2.7L Eco Boost truck!!!And the best thing is this 2015 Super Cab 4X4 with the 2.7L Eco Boost is faster in the 1/4 mile then the previous 2 3.5L Eco Boost trucks!!!

I love my 2.7 ecoboost in my 2017 scab. I know the 2018 will have the 10 speed and dual injection setup but I figured let that technology have a few years to get the bugs worked out.

My 2.7 feels like an absolute rocket compared to my previous truck ('97 5.4L)

I thought the 2017 2.7 already had dual injection? No?

Nope, only the 17 3.5L EcoBoost.

Yep, my 17 CVO street glide is real quiet.

Not really, the danger is usually in front of you, not behind you. I have usually found the louder the pipe on a harley, the slow the bike, not enough back pressure to make good torque.

if you have a chance test drive a 17 3.5 with the 10 spd, you will be impressed this thing is a blast to drive.
