Actually it sounds like your the hater and have an obvious bias.
The "niche" market is fuel efficiency and not the nonsense you spewed - something it does better than the the Ford. The people that buy them are after low operating costs and don't care about racing up hills.
Both vehicles excel at what they do - but they are for very different purposes.
Could I give your contact info to the 7 guys at the Ford dealership who have blown turbos at between 70k and a 120k miles. They could really use to hear from someone other then the guy who sold it to them how great their ecoboosts are at towing.
The only people I have personally met that have had luck towing over time with the ecoboosts, tow less then 6000pds about 10% of their total miles. All complain about fuel mileage.
I will take real world proven examples over someone typing what they read!
Pointless thread, but fun to read anyway. I found this comment interesting. I frequent many online forums and talk personally to most Ecoboost owners I come across. I haven't come across one turbo failure. For you to know personally know of 7 is night and day from my perception. I have to wonder why your experience is so atypical?
