Well here is MY opinion. LOL
Brother-in-Law has a Ford F150 with the ecoboost. His has a cover on the bed so it NEVER hauls anything other than what you can put under the cover. He also does not have a receiver hitch on it. He just likes to drive a pickup.
His drives nice, has a lot of zip and gets pretty good gas mileage. I really like the cab better than the Chevy.
Now the bad news. His is a 2012 model. He has 42,000 miles on it now. It is on it's second turbo, I mean actual third one on it. Two replaced after the original one. He is taking it in next week because of some shifting problem. It is not wanting to shift out of sixth.
He has kept track of the repair costs. They have been covered under warranty so far. He says that the transmission issue should put it over $5000. He did buy the extended power train warranty. He says it will never go out of warranty while he owns it.
His wife, my sister, bought a Chevy 1500 the year before. Hers has the small V-8 engine in it. They say it gets better mileage and has just as much power. Her Chevy has 52,000 miles on it. She has never had it back to the dealer for anything other than oil changes.
They both like the Ford cab better. They both said they will not be buying another Ford after the troubles he has had with this one.
So thats what I know about them. Lots of guys say they are the second coming in a pickup. I just know Ford has a history of engine troubles lately. I personally would be scared to death of a Ford vehicle because of the engine issues they have had.
