Default gotta say, love my 6.2

Towing again, enclosed tandem down to Austin to help the daughter move into her first apartment. Trailer full of crap but dragging it @ 70-75 in fifth with no problems what so ever except for maybe i35 traffic. Really pleased with this engine from Ford.

I35 sucks. Take the toll road if possible. 80mph speed limit and it's always deserted.

It is not from Dallas to Austin. It is from Georgetown to Kyle. It bypasses Round Rock and Austin, and is well worth the 6.50 dollars every time I took it to go to sales meetings in Dallas.

Went to a high volume dealer today hoping to find a F150 with a 6.2. Not one in stock. Called several dealers the other day, and couldn't find one. One dealer did a search for me and came up with one almost 900 miles away. I plan to trade my 2011 screw 5.0 before the end of the year, and would really like to drive a F150 with a 6.2 before buying another truck. Wish Ford would put them in the XLT.

I ve been very pleased with mine. 17k miles with no issues, pulls and runs great. For those without a tune I would highly recommend one. Mine has 5 star and love it.

I read somewhere that for the 2013 MY the 6.2 will be available in all trim levels.
