This is just For people who will moding the truck for power!!!!!!!
If anyone plans on modding the truck for more power the eb is going to respond better than the na 5.0 or 6.2. Plus it's already boosted you won't have to spend upwards of 5000 + for a supercharger or turbo kit. Plus most people are going to pissed that their nice sounding V8 with bolt- ons just got stomp by the not so great sounding V6 with bolt ons

They are both great engines if I was going to buy a new truck anytime soon I would probable be stuck with the 5.0 as I only go regular cabs and you can't get the ecoboost in a regular cab short wheel base setup. Now if I decided to go into an extended cab truck I would get the ecobost as it seems from what I seen a little quicker than the 5.0 in the 1/4 mile and 0-60 times.
