Motor Trend has the 2.7 ecoboost handily beating the ecodiesel in all of their timed runs. I have a 2012 F150 ecoboost and a 2014 JGC ecodiesel. My ecoboost will smoke the ecodiesel at any speed. I tried it. The F150 has a 3.73 ratio where the JGC has a 3.45 so maybe that is the difference. If I turn the traction control off of the ecoboost I will smoke the tires once the turbos spool up. Also there is a 1,000 lb. weight disadvantage with my F150 versus my JGC.
And your point is?? Of what importance is that?
My point is in response to Dons post.
And your point is????
I do not have the Jeep GC I have a Ram with 3.92 gears that will also "smoke the tires" if I turn off the traction control and put it in 2WD. BTW it didn't take the Ford very long before it walked right away form me. But the little under powered Ecodiesel looked good off the line!

I could say I backed off and let the ford win....but anyone that has every drove a Ecoboost would know that is bull excrement :W
