Mike Levine at pickuptrucks.com has now picked up on the story. He expects the increase in payload to be for EcoBoost only. Sorry, 5.0 fans.

The big question now is what trim levels?

Could somebody fill me in on why there are two V6 engines(bottom of page 67)? A 3.7L and the 3.5L Ecoboost? I feel like I might just be missing something.

Good info, sounds promising. Now I just have to decided if I want a new Ecoboost Fx4 or a Raptor.

The 3.7L is the base engine in several trim levels. The EB 3.5L is optional. Very different power outputs. I don't think anyone is cross shopping those two engines.

You place your order yet?

I always liked the green... I hope they still have it for the 2015/2016 year models when I buy my next one. Or I could just get ingot silver. Another color that looks awesome.

Any news on when the 2012's will be hitting the dealer lots? I'd like to wait and see what is coming in before I simply order one.

I hope the EB is worth the money over the stock 5.0.
