Motor choice dilemma

Motor choice dilemma
So 2014 f150 4x4 with a 6.2 or 5.0. I drove a 5.0 version and I loved it, the motor felt so alive made me smile. But the power hungry evil spirit that lives between my ears is saying 50 more hp 50 more ftlb for about 3 miles pr gal. more.
My question is for those that have driven f150s with both motors. Am I going to like the slower revving but more powerful 6.2 as much?
It's crunch time I have 2 that I am choosing between so I need experienced opinions please.

If it were my choice it would be the 5.0 and a custom tune. Coincidently I do have such. LOL But yeah the tuner makes that much difference.

If I had to do it over I'd have got the 6.2 with max tow instead of the Eco, I get the same mpg with 35s as my dad does with his raptor and none of that v8 rumble . You'll never say man I wish I had less power or a smaller engine

Get the 6.2 I drive mine hard every day and never had an issue. How many posts do you see about someone having issues with their 6.2. It is the most reliable of the engine choices.

Very true .. I drive my Roush 6.2 like a pee'd off teenager and I haven't had one issue with it yet ... ( knock on wood )
