[QUOTE="Jroc, post: 10264761, member: 51847"] Don't call me ignorant again or you're going to catch yourself a big argument. I know good and well that this is going to be a very good motor because its a modern, DI, boosted motor. I don't care though. Its not a matter of faith in the motor, I just don't like v6's being top of the line motors in my favorite serious of trucks. Are you not reading what I'm saying? I have a predigest against v6 motors in top of the line full size American trucks, and sports cars. Sorry. The pussy might be good, but would you want to marry some ugly women? Do you see where going with this? If you feel that emissions are what started to phase 2stroke out of in Motocross then you have not got a clue as to what you are talking about. If that was the case then Yamaha, and KTM wouldn't still be making them, and they wouldn't be eligible to race. Ford went to this motor to get better MPG. Ford very much wants this motor to make the v8's obsolete in their half ton trucks. This makes their job of meeting the CAFE quota much easier. Trust me. MPG has zero influence over what I buy though.(unless it was just some ridiculous numbers) Obviously most truck people I know feel the same because the ones I've asked if they'd my this truck say hell no. It boils down to its just kind of gay to them. Americans who buy big, American trucks, and performance cars like, and expect v8's. We just do. We like Football,(American Football) we like hamburgers, We like bad ass v8's. My biggest problem with the 6.2 is Ford doesn't offer it in the FX4. Why? Other than the Raptor its the most extreme(if you want to call it that) model of F150. It's the Z71's main competition. Lariats, KR's, Platinums are more pamper me models. FX4's come with beefer shocks, better rear differential, skid plates, etc that other models don't have. It deserves it as much as any other model other than Raptor as you can get one in the $50K price range. It is the model I would most likely want to go for other than it not offering the 6.2. BTW do all Ecoboost F150's come with that stupid looking chrome grill? Every picture I've seen of the Ecoboost F150 it has it. That thing is ugly as shit, and the ugliest full sized American truck by far. [/QUOTE]
