Default 2014 Ford F150 Lariat

Finally, after after a lot of hard work in school and work, I was able to get me a new ride. I have wanted this truck for a looooong time, finally got one a couple of weeks ago and I absolutely love it! Bought locally at Bolton Ford.

It's the 5.0. My uncle is sales manager at Bolton, and he talked me out of the ecoboost. Also, it is not a 4x4. He said the pos traction is all I should need. Anyone looking for a new Ford in the Lake Charles area, go to Bolton and ask for Gene Duffy.

What were his reasons for talking you out of the ecoboost?

The 5.0 is more reliable. Twin turbo = more to break and repair. Also, his sale rep that helped me has the EcoBoost, and he said the mileage is not that much better. I will say, I test drove the exact same truck with the EcoBoost, and that rig was more peppy and very responsive.

I've been told the same thing by friends in the industry and that is why all the trucks I buy are NOT eco boost. Not worth the extra money or head aches.

I've had 5 trucks with forced induction.
1 supercharger
4 sets of turbos
No problem with the induction systems

Broke a lot of rear ends with that blown f150 I had

70k on my Ecoboost no problems.
The only problems I have seen personally with the Ecoboost is when you start adding chips and stuff.
