...It's got more horse power and torque then all those "Loud" trucks..
Don't get me wrong, I love the V8's and Flowmasters, but every time some redneck in comes flying by me on a 2 lane when I'm already going 10 over the speed limit and his exhaust is roaring, I start laughing and debate for a second about putting my foot into the gas and showing him what makes a 'real' truck. But then I come back to reality and rember I'm not 22 any more.

When my salesman pulled up beside me to let me take my new '11 SCrew EB out for a drive, I asked him why he had shut it down and coasted up to the showroom..?? Then he explained it was still running... Sure impressed me..!!
I do miss the old "throaty growl" of my old 5.4 tho... Maybe the improved fuel economy will help me forget about it..!!
Ecoboost too quiet because: I can hear my stomach growl louder than the engine when I floor it..!!
