As I read the new info hitting the web about the Powerstroke coming to the F-150 and the 7.0L V8 coming for 2019, I wonder which engines will be removed from the F-150 lineup?

As far as i know Ford has never offered 6 engine options in the F-150. 4 engine options seems to be the magic number as any more is just getting out of control.
The evidence i see says changes are coming to the F-150 engine lineup.
The new Powerstroke will make 5 engine choices
The 7.0L V8 Ford has invested about a Billion dollars into is said to be going under the hood of the 2019 Rapto and as a Platinum option will be powerplant number 6! WTF?

I believe 2 engines will go and no longer be offered.
The 3 engines that could go by the wayside are the 5.0L V8, 2.7L EB, & 3.5L EB. Reason for stating that is, the NA 3.3L V6 is brand new design, the diesel will be brand new design, & the 7.0L will be a brand new design.

Something will have to go as a buyer will never be able to make a desicion and or take all day to test drive all 6 engine configurations. Salesmans nightmare.

I count 7 engine options, if the 7.0 is for real.

3.3
2.7eb
3.0 diesel
3.5eb
3.5eb ho
5.0
7.0

I thought the 7.0 was for sd only though.

But yea, I don't think they're going to stay with 7 for long, if at all.

I could see the 2.7 eb and the 3.5 eb h.o getting killed off from the line up. My reasoning, why offer a smaller eco boost that can't pull as much. But on paper is very similar to a 5.0 on power level. It sounds like most people are buying the 2.7 for fuel economy and very little towing. You could fill that void with the 3.3 na. If they kill off the 5.0 they will probably loose a chunk of business to the other manufacturers. If they are truly going to put a 7.0 v-8 in a raptor than you won't need the 3.5 h.o. I can't see too many people wanting a 7.0 v-8 in a half ton for a daily driver. Unless it's getting 20 mpg. I can't see multiple engine choices in a raptor. I think Ford would have a pretty good line up with the following engines. 3.3 na, 3.5 eb, 5.0, 7.0 and the diesel option. If I was going to get the 7.0 myself, I would want it in a super duty and not a 150.

7.0 is for Super Duty. 3.3 could easily go away. It's used in other vehicles.

untraceable

Highly skeptical of a 7.0 in the F150. Though it would be awesome


Stoked to see what this 7.0 really becomes. a 429 Coyote


Would really like to see the new SD engine have a turbo option. Too much fleet usage Im guessing to really have a Eco-7.0. But a diesel killer gas engine would be incredible

Cafe standards will make it impossible for a 7.0L to be put in the F150.

It would also make no sense to kill the 2.7 in the F150-it is the volume engine in the truck now, helps it better meet cafe standards, and is generally well liked by customers. Why kill that?
