I don't see much practical advantage over the base Ecoboost. Not much MPG gain, much more potential headache.

Much like the EcoDiesel vs Pentastar. Drive them back to back, the Pentastar is faster and can tow nearly the same amount of weight. Just a few MPG difference on the highway. Never mind the high premium to go with the Babystroke or the EcoDiesel.

These new gas V6 trucks are bargains. Great economy and decent power.

Thanks!
