That's the thing with an EcoBoost. You can only have one. Eco, or Boost. Your right foot chooses.
Could not the same thing be said for virtually every internal combustion engine with a throttle ever built? Would a statement like " you get to choose one" be more accurate?
The 5.4 had neither.
The point is obvious, in that the potential for great mileage is there. I'd like to know what other engine, that has comparable power and performance, that can also can get great mileage. The apt comparison here is the GM 6.0, of even Fords 6.2 - There was no option for 20+ mpg with those, and they had less bottom end torque.
Not sure why I replied, as the hook you presented above was just a biased / provocative comment.
