Did anyone else notice that for the performance stats they compared a two wd eco to a 5 l 4x4?

Just curious about something. Doesn't a truck of the year have to be a new or significantly revised model? The EB and 5.0 should have been tested last year!

First, I am a little tired of the ECO/5.0 argument myself, BUT I think you are right. I read that article multiple times and Motor Trend was definitely a little biased about that engine. Over the past decade, it seems money has been the deciding factor on who wins that "so-called" prestigious award! I know many people on this discussion board said Chevy must have paid off Motor Trend to win "Truck of the Year" last year. Frankly, IMO, it seems Ford paid the winning bid and, since the ECO is their baby, wanted it to have the ECO in the spot light. I really couldn't believe how Motor Trend dogged the 5.0 (and the other engines as well). You would think they would praise all engines for being what they are, but obviously not. Again, I 100% agree with my67falcon...
