Some folks will never be able to wrap their heads around the 2.7 being as successful as it is and attribute it to anything else like it being forced on consumers, marketing, or some other push.
The reality of it is that it as an excellent engine in the platform, and most of us who purchased one are getting exactly what we were looking for. Sometimes the truth is simpler than trying to come up with reasons why others might see things differently...
Read the Ward's link, and read that the 2.7 comes up with comparable torque to the 5.0, with the peak coming on at significantly lower RPM than the 5.0, and its little wonder why the 2.7 feels at home in the F150.
The real beauty is that we have all sorts of choices - with 5 engine platforms to choose from now

The real data would be how many sales based on customer ordering. I'm willing to bet most of the orders were 3.5 ecoboost
