Now that I have air conditioning seats, theres no going back.....

If ford went back to the HDPP in a lariat, i would have a forever truck

I would have pulled the trigger on a HDPP too if it wasnt such a shit box inside

HDPP is only available in the xl now, not even in the xlt … a lariat is pipe dream .

Interior … is no better or worse than GMC… dodge maybe a bit better but then you have a dodge …

What I really want is the ecoboost in the F250. Does that make me demented? Possibly.

At our elevation turbos make a lot of sense over n/a v8s in every sense except glorious noise

Just turbo v8, quit messing around. Or market it as siamese turbo inline 4 if that makes it sound economical and green.

Word. I'd buy a turbo v8 if they made it.

I drive a Tacoma, the interior isn’t that important, it’s more that if I was gonna drop 60K on a new truck it better be kinda skookum

agreed... the utility of the 6.2, 6.8 and 7.3 (though has roller issues) requires a very stout bottom end. That said, why not light-turbo one for the purpose of more consistent torque curve and air density loss? - maybe more effort than its worth.

I'm now at 250K on my 1st gen eco w/o any timing chain replacement (no issues yet... touch wood) - I did have issues with the oil return line, which was costly but overall the internals of the motor are still untouched and within parameters as per their last calibration check.

I change my oil every 5K km with full synth... touch wood I can keep it running for another hundy.

also 80% of the mileage is unloaded highway driving.
