We are intoxicated by the engine sound, but still wincing at the fugly flares.

Raptor threads or mentions on 6g: 1 Gabillion
Bronco DR threads or mentions on 6g: What is the DR?

Imeen, $295k is a drop in the bucket when we're talking style, so yeah, Mechmatic or whoever did themselves a solid with that fender flare blunderbuss. Wasn't Ralph Lauren available? lol

It needs the GT500 engine instead like the F150 R

Pretty good video:

My understanding is that they put the coyote in these but it was naturally aspirated. Why would they do that? Maybe I’m mistaken. We have F150s with the 5.0 and the 2.7 in them and the 2.7 absolutely roasts the coyote equipped trucks. My son finally put a supercharger on his coyote in his F150 and it performs nicely and I would probably have a tough time keeping up with him in my 2.7 propelled F150 after his upgrade.

The 3.5 ecoboost can likely compete with a 5.0 coyote on most charts, but I don't think the 2.7 ecoboost is even close, in stock form.

But really, everything is dependent on what your goal (and application is).

We have all three engines in F-150’s and the coyote sounds better but either Ecoboost outperforms it in every performance category, especially when towing. The numbers shown below are for similarly set up crew cab 4X4 F-150’s.

Guess we'll have to agree to disagree.

You’re welcome to go for a ride with us if the data provided above isn’t convincing enough. I also have a late model Mustang GT that is fun but feels sluggish compared to my 2.7 Bronco and 2.7 F-150. The Coyote has no low rpm grunt so unless it’s rapped out tight, it is relatively slow.

Been in lots of trucks, none have felt convincingly fast.

Agree to disagree? When the performance advantages of a TT v6 over a 5.0 are quantifiable and have been presented pictorially?


Wat?
