I have one. I've gotten up to 28 MPG on highway (65mph). Unbelievable power.


Nice What chassis/cab/trim?

I hate the auto shutoff feature. I sometimes forget to turn it off and the engine dies.


But you can turn it off correct? Tuner disables it too?

Read the other day that they are bringing it to all Ecoboost motors in the second generation (2017)


I think I read the same thing but didn't see what year. But some were questioning if they were fixing some of the earlier 3.5 issues (i.e. timing chain). I wouldn't mind the 3.5 but right now I'm reading reviews that have the 2.7L w/ 3.55 gear ratio as the best driving F150 combo out there.

I was supposed to fish today, but I'm on call till noon. A group of kayak baws is hitting Coco or Leeville tomorrow but I can't make it. Supposed to be beautiful weather.

I'm also on call and it's killing me, probably end up staying home this weekend and doing some yardwork.


In regards to the auto start/restart I'm not familiar with the Ford's system but the cars I've been in with it would restart the moment your foot came off the brake or if the temperature changed 1 or 2 degrees. It was weird at first but you get used to it. There's an option to disengage it if you want.
