[QUOTE="user 6393, post: 1401450, member: 6393"] I have a 2014 FX4 4x4 crew ecoboost. It has been an extremely reliable truck, but the posted mileage is not what you get IRL. The engine does have all the snort and get up and go anyone could ever want, but it's not a fuel saver. Ford was counting on the weird transmission gearing to pick up the slack on the average mileage numbers, but if you are like me (read as have a heavy foot) you won't see it. I don't regret the purchase at all, and would choose ecoboost again without hesitation That said, I wouldn't tow close to its claimed capacity with it. We know two close friends with similar units, one who had our exact truck, who did tow RV's and had very bad experiences. What Ford claims with the ecoboost does not seem to translate to real world experience. My ecoboost is my daily driver, and it excels for what I need. I am in it daily, moving parts pieces etc for our logging company [/QUOTE]
