Drag Race: Tuned F-150 Tremor Leaves 5.0 F-150 in the Dust

Drag Race: Tuned F-150 Tremor Leaves 5.0 F-150 in the Dust

In this modern world of turbocharged everything, there is no understating the improvement that a tune can give you. I’ve definitely complained about the Tremor being too normal; too tame. A tune isn’t going to change my mind, but a 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6 is going to make power if you turn up the boost. Finally, […] More »

3.5-Liter EcoBoost Wins At 12 Hours of Sebring

All of us in the know know that the EcoBoost is a good engine (despite it’s early missteps). It’s quickly become Ford’s go-to performance workhorse. The F-150 has it.

Ford Unveils the 2015 Expedition in Dallas

When we arrived at eM the Venue in the Dallas Design District on the evening of Feb. 18, I thought my colleagues and I had pulled up to a school.  The building certainly looked like one from the outside. I was partly right.  I ended up learning a lot about the 2015 Ford Expedition at […] More »

EcoBoosted: MPT Performance F-150 Runs a 12 Second Pass

In Detail: The 2.7-Liter Twin Turbo Ecoboost

This new F-150 has a lot a of firsts for the brand. It’s the first time they’ve used an aluminum body. It’s the first time they’ve included a 360° camera system in any Ford vehicle. The big bombshell, however, is the introduction of the 2.7-liter twin-turbo V6. This little powerhouse is the smallest engine in an […] More »
