Twin turbo would be a no go for me.
I’d have said the same thing before owning a 3.5 EB F150. I haven’t babied it and towed quite a bit and some heavy loads (small tractors, etc). I average 18.5+ in normal mixed driving and have 34” (295/70R18) tires on it. It pulls WAY better than an equivalent F150 with a 5.0 V8. Not even comparable

This. Give Yota a few cycles to work out the kinks.

Yeah, why would you want a shitload of low end power and the ability to maintain 75mph uphill without downshifting, when you could have a good ole naturally aspirated V8 with less low end power and less peak power with the need to downshift on every hill and overpass?
