F150 Ecoboost Reliability
A friend is looking at a 2013 F150 Ecoboost and I'm wondering how these are doing reliability wise. What was the first year for the Ecoboost?

I agree Mitch, the computer in my vehicles have always been with-in a few tenths, if you reset it at every fill up.
My post on the mileage may be out dated as it was the early trucks that Ford embellished their fuel mileage. The newer trucks seem to be right on par with the window sticker. As for 13/15/21 that will not cut it for the upcoming bump in fuel mileage for trucks. Hence the reason for a diesel offering in the F-150 sometime in 2018.
Add the diesel with the weight of the F-150 and the upcoming 9/10 speed and it should top the Ram Ecodiesel by 2-4 MPG I would think. If they go with a smaller diesel say 3.0 or 3.2 max.
This is going to push Ram and GM into going with Alum. also I bet. Any info on Ford and GM's 9 and 10 speed transmissions
