I have had two 2.7L EcoBoosts now. A 2020 Ford Edge ST, that was a blast to drive. And now a 2021 F-150 with the 2.7L, which has more lower RPM grunt than the 3.5. The 3.5 is tuned to make power at higher RPMs. The F150 2.7L is claimed to do 0-60 in 6.1 secs. I just towed 1550 miles AZ to WA with my KRX SxS on a trailer weighing 3100-3200 pounds and the truck bed and back seat full of stuff for the Summer in the NW. Mileage for the trip was 15.3 MPG. I had head winds fro Quartzite, Az to Ely, Nv that had mileage down to 12.5 for 460 miles.
Left Ely had tailwinds and I was getting good mileage. This was on I-84 after fueling in Twin Falls, Id 19.9!
I also made the trip with the Edge ST with my trike on the trailer, averaging 17 MPG. Both did great. The both could/can get 24 MPG bobtail.
