The 7.0L is a V8. Super Duty, HD vans, and cab & chassis only. No F150

Bought my 2011 Eco Platinum new and traded it this year for a new Raptor. Had 116K miles on the Platinum w/o issues. Why so much concern about warranty on an eco?

The concern is around the new 10spd, and the same ecoboost specific issues (from 11-16) are popping up in this version. People are fighting leaky oil pans (plastic pan), cam phaser rattling, rattling wastegates, etc.

where the hell do you get your information?

I've seen NOTHING on cam phaser rattling or rattling wastegates.

the 10sp is a great transmission, too.

You definitely need to read more forums about the eco raptor. It is obviously a known issue to ford if they released a new tune to correct.

These are some of his previous (banned) screen names on this forum: Sasquatch77, FRFJimbo, darrylgibbs, 93CobraOH, 02_Lightning.
He's also been through a few screen names on fordraptorforum.com
