10 years from now there likely won't be V8s offered anymore.

 

I remember when I was a kid along time ago people used to say that and here we are 30 years + later and there still here. I buy well used so there will be plenty..

 

I like knowing that I've got a V8 under the hood. Also if you are planning on making any changes to the exhaust or changing the muffler it will sound better as a V8 rather than V6

 

It may sound better to YOU, but there are some who think a V6 sounds better. It's all personal preference.

 

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.

 

How about more mileage reports. I test drove both the 5.0 and ecoboost in the supercrew. I love how the 5.0 sounds and am leaning that way. It will be my daily driver but with gas approaching the $4 mark I would like to hear how much better if any the EB is on fuel. Thanks
