Personally, I'd like to see Ford add a couple of cylinders to the 3.5 and make a 4.6 ecoboost.
I'm no mechanical engineer, but if they had a V8 ecoboost engine, it would be awesome to have a multi displacement system that allows the truck to operate as a turbo charged 4 cylinder truck for light driving. Seems a turbo charged V4 would be able to create enough power to get a 5000 lbs truck moving along at highway speeds and be able to do it more efficiently than the current V6.
Varying the turbo's boost already gives a variable displacement (effectively).
