The 2015 Chevrolet Colorado also achieves excellent fuel economy, with the 2. 5-liter I-4 model with the six-speed automatic rated at 20/27 mpg. However, Ford stresses that the F-150 is much more capable, with the ability to tow 1100 lbs. In addition to releasing those numbers, Ford also announced that the aluminum trucks should be arriving in dealers soon, and that some customers will be driving F-150s around as early as next week. The automaker expressed that once they go on sale, it'll expect the take rate on EcoBoost-equipped models to be about 40 percent, while it also expressed disinterest in putting a diesel in the F-150 since diesel fuel can be more expensive. 2011 f150 EcoBoost 58,000 miles stumbles misfires loss of power dealer install new spark plugs,truck runs better. I think Ford is learning as they go with ecoboost, it certainly hasn't been trouble free. My thoughts were I definitely paid more at the dealer but this way I can get this engine to run better. Also had trouble with intercooler,dealer installed cover over part of intercooler. We all know you will get better milage with a diesel so why don't we cross that bridge when both Ford and GM decide to throw a diesel power plant in their half ton trucks. Until then let us look at what the new technology Ford is brining to the table which can only benefit the market as a whole and gives the consumer a better product irregardless of what brand you like.
