In real world testing the 3
In real world testing the 3.5L Ecoboost has less true pulling power during towing tests and worse fuel economy than GM's 5.3 V8. This looks like a missed opportunity for Ford. I like what they are doing with going to a lighter weight aluminum bodied truck. That's pretty cool. I still think the F-150 is a pretty ugly truck, but it is still far better looking than a Tundra. I can't imagine that a 2.7L engine will ever be a volume seller in a full size truck. Glad I'm not the person having to sell them! Also a point of curiosity for me, is why Ford would decide to continue along with an engine lineup (Ecoboost) that has them trying to settle over 300 class action lawsuits. Interesting. I see this as a win and a definite marketing point for all of Ford's competitors.
