Anyone towing with their 2.7 Ecoboost F150?

You'd be okay to tow a bass boat or a pop up camper. I'd be hesitant to go over 5000 lbs. with the 2.7.

They say it's quite a performer, however. Most people getting behind the wheel think it's a 3.5.

But when it comes to towing, torque is what matters and the bigger motor would be preferred for that use.

Also, the torque peak (and HP) on the 2.7EB is 1000rpm higher than the 3.7EB (375lb-ft@3500rpm versus 420lb-ft@2500rpm).

Those operating characteristics are quite different, making the 2.7EB less "diesel-like" than the 3.5EB.
