I am buying a truck soon. I am looking at F-150s with ecoboost around 2012 and under 100k miles. I have researched all over and can't really find any major issues with this engine, but I wanted to at least ask on here. Is there a good or bad year model ecoboost to buy? I know about the carbon build up issues and the CAC condensation issues, but I am not too concerned with them. I am more concerned with injector and turbo problems.
I am asking because I was talking to someone that owned a 2011 the other day, and he said that the first year or so they were build better, then they changed something for a few years that caused problems, then went back to the original design. He didn't have any specifics on what was changed or what the problems were.
Is there any thing specific I should look for before purchasing a truck?
