I personally do not have one.

My cousin had one though for quite some time that I drove occasionally & rode in.

Lifted on bigger tires, pulled my fatgtp with ease and sounded awesome doing so.

If EcoBoost, I'd concern myself mainly with 13/14's over the 11/12's as Ford redesigned the wastegates and other things after the 12MY.

5.0 any '12+, the 11's were a bit shaky IIRC.


As for 5.0 vs 3.5EB, it really depends where you want the powerband. EB's are peak torque at ~2k and flat throughout the band whereas 5.0's like a bit more RPM and have a traditional curve. Personally, either is a great choice with the edge going to EB if you're towing near capacity or a sizable enclosed.

Sounds good. Unfortunately no towing. Would love a boat but not happening. Mainly truck will be for side jobs moving HVac equipment

Errrr.....

Wouldn't it be vastly cheaper to just buy Van or Compact truck if you don't even intend to tow?

Or just buy a hitch for whatever you already own, and pickup a little trailer to move around HVac Equipment?
