I should clarify
The next step is small diesels in half ton trucks that are held to very early 90's emission standards, because you produce less bad shite when you burn less fuel.
ANYWAYS as much as it pains me to say it, ford really left everyone in the dust with the ecoboost. There's no excuse for all half ton trucks to not have 4 or 6 cylinder forced induction engines.

Well I wouldn't go that far now. The old reliable V8s have their place. Such as constant towing under 10,000 lbs. The 3.5 and the 6.2 are going to do it just as easy as the other but I have heard many times before that the 6.2 will get better MPG. Also, I would much rather all that constant stress on a larger motor.
And my final tid bit, when people are comparing the 3.5 to the 6.2 and trying to decide which one to get... I point them in the direction of the F250. The standard motor is the 6.2 and not the 3.5 for a reason.
