One thing to note on the 6.2 power though... Ford rated it using premium fuel. From the Ford brochure, "6.2L horsepower and torque achieved with premium fuel."
They recommend using 87 octane to run it, but they quote it's power after testing with premium. Odd.

My opinion is to buy the 6.2. You'll just complain about the low end torque this little 3.5 puts out ;-)

Thanks though!

My next question was going to be for both the 6.0 and EV folks who added bigger tires (35's). How do each of the motors react to the mods? Can they each handle the 35's effortlessly?

Yes I know it has old school power steering and a v8 with lots of plugs
Seriously, I love this truck. It pulls real hard and makes that wonderful noise
