Hate to burst your Chevy bubble, but all GDI engines are prone to carbon buildup. The 5.3l is no different.
Not really... Its known with the fords. And not everyone can afford top tier fuel.
My Ford buddys have had issues with thier eco's.. Its a failed PVC system thats known and why many have added the catch cans...
Just my opinion though... Everyone is smart enough to decide whats real or Fake news...

And yes all trucks have problems.. Chevy has their lifter concerns too Im well aware. But as far as all the trucks I have owned were port injected..
But there is no denying the carbon issues on the ecoboost motor..
I know direct injection motors can do this but add the turbo, oil carry over flawed PVC system,and extra pressures it becomes a giant problem..
They have low friction rings on the pistons for fuel savings at the expense of more blowby.
