My Ecoboost has gone almost 4K miles without going into the shop...the 5.0 in my '11 had to go in at a little over 2K miles for engine work.

Nothing major...a CEL came on and it took one O2 sensor and replacing 4 bad injector's to get it to clear. I think it was some offbrand gasoline I put in it that was bad. Dealer said no.

They still don't sell very many EBs to the farmers and ranchers around here. The Ford dealer in Athens carries more 5.0s than EBs and a few 3.7s. In the bigger cities, it's different. In Tyler, they sell a lot of both.

Well Duh, The 5.0 is perfect to putt around on the farm or ranch, if you want to get anywhere fast buy a Eb.
