ford f-150 ecoboost?

Thank you all for your input so far, its refreshing to hear some great things about it.

There was a lot of bad press in the beginning because of injector failures and a lack of replacement parts. I would think that they have those ironed out by now though.

What bad press? The stalling issue mentioned above that happens in extremely limited circumstances, and that was easily cured with a change in the outlet tube of the CAC (at no cost to the owner), or the issue about coil packs that weren't actually bad but was instead a programming issue? Maybe you're thinking about one of the other manufacturers that are jumping on the "eco" bandwagon, now that Ford has hit a home run with those three little letters. Chevy even has a model called the Eco now, but its being recalled due to fires. Then there's the new EcoDiesel from Fiat/Ram that won't even be available until next month, so there's no real world experience there.

Had my truck out west in September, pulled that trailer up over the Rockies to over 10,000 feet and had PLENTY of power left. It's smooth, quiet, dependable, great fuel mileage. I just wish Ford would make an EcoBoost model for the Super Duties, maybe a turbo'ed 5.0?

The only bad thing I had happen was one of the two bottom panels fell off while in the Rockies. That was caused by a new oil change guy at a dealer not installing it correctly two days earlier. The Ford dealer in Durango put it back on for me, didn't even charge to do it. Great dealership there in Durango.

I did, and would again in a heartbeat.

I love mine!:)

When I first got it, I had heard about the tendency to falter in damp conditions, so, after driving at a steady speed for several hours in the rain, I punched the accelerator and, sure enough, it faltered. I took it back to the dealer. They reflashed the computer and I haven't been able to get it to falter again. A friend has 50K miles on his, many of those pulling a loaded stock trailer. His has never skipped a beat.

It pulls my trailer MUCH better than the 5.3L Chevy it replaced.

I'm retiring in 2 weeks and can't wait to keep the road hot with it. I'm anxious to return to Colorado and I have complete confidence that it will pull those passes easily. Look up "Ike Gauntlet 2.0" on Youtube.
