I work in the oil field, my company bough a couple eco boost f150s and they are alot faster than the V8 but im not sure they tow as good as the V8 (quite a few co workers live in a TT while theyre workin.
We also idle alot 10+ hrs a day lots of cold starts in -30ish weather and anywhere from 15 to 850 miles a day.
They also bought a few dodge trucks before I started, but the idiot who bought em got extended cab instead of crew. ( we have alot of equipment that has to stay in the cab or it doesnt work in the winter.) They got transferred to another division. Its a shame I prefer dodge over ford.
Most of our trucks have 70-80k miles and they will probably replace the whole fleet this summer.
I dont know how many miles the ecoboosts have and nobody knows how many hours.
I wish theyd get us 3/4 ton crew cab long bed trucks theyd be perfect. Enough room for equipment pull a bigger TT and diesel is better with idling.
