Future F150 with 6.2 Engine?
#11
The motors are going smaller, not larger in half ton trucks. I would not be the least bit surprised if the largest motor offered in the 2021 is a 4.8 v8 with the next option being the 2.7. I could even see the 3.5 going away since Ford has given the 2.7 beefier internals. They may just offer the 2.7 as a regular and HO version.

That probably was a stretch, but it does seem a bit odd to me that they have three twin turbo v6's (2.7, 3.5, 3.5HO). It would not surprise me to see something go away to make room for a 4 cylinder turbo.

I don't see a 4 Cyl Turbo making it's way into the F150 lineup. If that is the engine you want then the Ranger is your truck. Conversely, there is no V6 Turbo option in the Ranger because it would compete with the 2.7L EcoBoost in the F150.

If you want a 4 popper in a 1/2 Ton, GM is where to go. Ford would never go to that extreme considering they have a same displacement V6 that will run circles around the GM.

You are right, they don't. But, the old stuff is just that, old. Its not coming back, there isn't going to be some magical drivetrain that is coming back. All of this is spitballing random wants. There seems to be this odd obsession with raw towing figures like its the end all of of the vehicle.

Heck, I wanted a new Ranger until they gave it the only motor option I didn't want.
