I just don't see the attraction of the ECO-Boost. Maybe if I was one of those that is always chasing the latest tech development, but I am not. I just don't see enough of a MPG advantage to cover the cost in both dollars and risk.
I drive a 13 Ram 5.7, 6sp, admittedly I am a very conservative driver. Towing of course varies greatly depending on the trip, but 8 to 10 is a good average. Every day driving 18, interstate long trip I have hit 23.
More power to the Eco guys, just not for me, and as an aside, I would never buy any turbo or supercharged vehicle used!
