Their crimped together spark plugs suck too. Have seen tune up bills approach the 1k mark. Just depends on how many of those crap plugs break off in the head.

I'm not sure bout the 5.0 and 6.2 but the ecoboost doesnt have those long plugs like the5.4. My 2004 lariat had the long plugs , but I never had problems changing them. I had over 200000 miles on my 04 and I chnged them 3 times without incident. There isa special procedure that goes along with those plugs. If you follow it you rarely have problems.
