One of the worst they have tested. Like I said, even a base engine 1/2 ton, such as the Pentastar will cost less to buy and operate, and WILL BE MORE CAPABLE AT TOWING A LOAD AT SPEED.
Feel free to look up the F150 3.7, 2.7, or the Penta-Ram of you can find it. The EB 2.7 is a pretty wicked choice, unless you have a hate on for Ford products.
Like I have been saying, this engine is a niche engine to appeal to those that don't mind compromising everything for the feel of a diesel engine in a half ton.
Flame away!
There is no flame. Not even a smolder.
Why does everyone think the Eco-diesel is a "tow-machine" in the first place? It's meant to get great unloaded fuel mileage, to which it does and occasionally be used for towing which it does also.
I'm not sure why everyone keeps comparing this with other half-tons and trying to come up with some meaningful results.
It's almost like trying to convince a pineapple it's a grape.
