F-150 ecoboost

Took a 800 mile round trip the other day to pick up a Yamaha for my job. I'm running a bit larger tires so the mpg is slightly better then it shows.
I was loading the motorcycle up in the 102 degree temps, had to change shirts when I climbed into the truck...sweating like a dawg. The cooled seats were great.
It would be nice to have the 36 gallon tank as well. Other than that, the longer I own the Eco the more I like it.

Just picked up my new screw ecoboost today. I'm not going to be pulling like you guys. Maybe two sleds or 2 or 3 wheelers, mostly my daily driver. I'm likin' it!
I'm trying to decide which truck to get next, and the Super Crew Ecoboost is on my list. Not sure I can justify the added cost of a diesel for what I need, but a little uncertain on what the resale will be on the eco after 5 years and 140k miles....
The Ecoboost is a good option for those of us that don't tow weights over 10K. Even though my truck is rated and equipped to pull over 11K I know it will handle most anything under 10K.
I grabbed the heaviest trailer I own again the other day and headed out camping. It is a 30 ft bumper tow and fully loaded is about 6800 lbs. Mileage is at 8500 now and the MPG was 10.3. My buddy with the same trailer gets 12.5 with his stock 6.7L Cummins megacab. Yep diesels are cool and make huge power but if you don't want a diesel or the added cost the Ecoboost pulls just fine.
