Ecoboost engine question
With the Eco doing so well and loved by many and bragged about by Ford. Why is it not offered in the F250 ? I love mine but I'm curious.

Not that I believe everything I see, read or watch, but if one believes only a fraction of Ford's promotional video for the 3.5 Ecoboost, it's still very impressive. Honestly, I can't imagine how a "super-duty duty-cycle" could surpass that kind of abuse. Again, I'm not saying this video is any more than outstanding marketing, but I'm sure it's one of the major reasons why the 3.5 Ecoboost has been such a kick-ass success for Ford.
Which is why Ford detuned the Superduty version of the 6.2 for durability. Speaks to duty cycles expected from the f250/350 vs the lighter duty f150.
