bogeypro Posted May 20, 2013 Posted May 20, 2013 http://www.edmunds.com/ram/1500/2013/comparison-test.html Good review of v6 trucks. Basically, Ford is beat on every one of their claims of towing power and mpg...
waumo1 Posted May 20, 2013 Posted May 20, 2013 Seems an irrelevant test to me - if I was going to pull a big trailer, especially in hill country I wouldn't buy the small V8, much less a V6.
GMCDriver1 Posted May 21, 2013 Posted May 21, 2013 Well they didn't put the Eco-Boost V-6 up against Dodge's V-6, otherwise the Eco would have booya'd Dodge.
Daryl LBZ Posted May 21, 2013 Posted May 21, 2013 Well they didn't put the Eco-Boost V-6 up against Dodge's V-6, otherwise the Eco would have booya'd Dodge. Last I heard the Ecoboost is in the V8 category...
TheTrueMoron Posted May 21, 2013 Posted May 21, 2013 I'm surprised a V6 in a truck can do so much nowadays!
Carder09 Posted May 21, 2013 Posted May 21, 2013 I'm surprised a V6 in a truck can do so much nowadays! Give it enough power and some nannies, any things possible. Maybe next ford will put a four banger with quad turbos with the ability to tow 13k!
Daryl LBZ Posted May 21, 2013 Posted May 21, 2013 Give it enough power and some nannies, any things possible. Maybe next ford will put a four banger with quad turbos with the ability to tow 13k! Ford just had an article on Left Lane claiming two thirds of cars will have 4 bangers by 2020. Maybe they'll throw one in the F-150 too http://www.leftlanenews.com/ford-says-two-thirds-of-cars-will-have-four-cylinders-by-2020.html

Also. All exhaust will sound nice and Ricey when aftermarket systems come out, can't wait!
