Is it the turbo Ecoboost or the naturally aspirated bigger V6.

All the companies are getting more HP out of smaller displacement engines but a truck engine is defined more by peak low end torque in how it’s used.

I’ve bumper pulled 14k lbs with my 6.2L gas F250. The diesel F250 does the same thing but turns at least 2k rpm less. I can do it intermittently just fine. The diesel can do it day in and day out. Extrapolate that more to the lower loads that light duty trucks see regularly (your boat... and mine) and that’s why I was chest thumping on the V8. The local dealership had a test rig setup with an F150 Ecoboost and a 4500lb trailer load. I test drive it and they were pointing out how it did just fine on pulling. I told them I agreed... and pointed out I was looking at the boost gauge the whole drive and it was in higher boost levels most of the drive. Thus... I’d probably never buy one.

I’ve seen too many guys say “well it pulls it”. And I ask how does it stop it?

Ecoboost. I can see where you're coming from on that. The thing that really makes me feel like a suburban grocery hauler like @hog88 said is the little "trailer backup" wheel. At least I can say I have no idea how to use it.

This dudes effort and determination is admirable, he wasn't letting go of that thing!
 
There is no link that you've presented yet you tied them together. That's a lie

No, a suicide weeks later is not a protest death
What?
I never tied them together.
But I think there is a good chance there is a link, same with my example you ignored.
you jumped the gun on your attack this time.
