Will be buying a newer truck soon.

I tow 10 000 lbs with my 1500 Sierra no problem , that’s close to the limit but the 6400 lb tractor with trailer should be well under that.

All the eco boost trucks are a V6 twin turbo.

Nope not true, they lent me an eco boost v8 no turbo

Sorry but unless you got the first ever one made, Ford does not make a eco boost V8. They make two different v6 twin turbos, a 5.0 v8, and a diesel in the F150’s.

It was a 2018 I was a v8 and it said Eco boost

Just looked at both trucks power #

Dodge ram 385HP, 410 TQ

Sliverodo Hp 285 Tq 325

I'm leaning to the ram the power # look so much better. As far as the millage difference I think it's about 2 or 3 miles.

I just googled it , I guess I was mistaken, I know it was a v8 I though I saw eco boost

Double check those numbers for the GM. The HP # of 285 was right for my 2004. Gotta be more now.

Just like tractors, you gotta go sit in some seats. Speaking of: I really like the seats in the new Ram. I rented one this winter and drove from Indiana back to New Hampshire and was extremely comfortable. What a nice truck. Only complaint would be the PRND knob. I like a lever, but it literally is the only fault I could find.

Oh - loaded (bed full of stuff) mpgs highway was ~21 for the whole ride, even though I enjoyed the power.

Silverado numbers are way off.

OP, newer than what? Are you looking at a brand new truck? Recently new truck? Or do you drive a 1972 and **** near everything is newer?

They Gave me an f 150 with the v8 eco boost as a loner for 21 days, I知 a GM guy but I was very impressed with the ford.... nice truck!

the 5 liter V8 is not an eco boost nor a turbo
