July 3, 20178 yr Swing by and looked at it at lunch. Too many blemishes from the initial look. It was an 08 Vortec Max (6.0L 367hp)
July 3, 20178 yr Wife has a case and screen protector on hers, she pampers phones so I expect in three years it'll look new even if it didn't have a case.

July 4, 20178 yr Anything special I need to know about F150's from the era? Any good tuners to take them to and wake them up?
July 4, 20178 yr hold up a minute.... 5.0 L 360 hp (270 kW) @ 5500 rpm 380 lb·ft (520 N·m) @ 4250 rpm 3.5 L EcoBoost 365 hp (272 kW) @ 5000 rpm 420 lb·ft (570 N·m) @ 2500 rpm Fer real? And I assume there are good tuners out there to liven them up a bit more...
July 4, 20178 yr I have never done cocaine. Somehow. Never. But every song about cocaine makes me feel like I am missing out.....

The Coyote has the torque and it's powerband keeps climbing well past redline. Go drive both; you'll see what I mean. If you want a lighter truck get the 15+. The aluminum makes for a very nimble truck.

Even then th3 GM plasticrap drives me nuts. If you are going to modify the shit out of something then the GM aftermarket is better

Does mean full boost is early but it's boring.
July 4, 20178 yr They're fine in a car platform. Hell a tune does wonders, but the trucks are just heavy bricks. They just need more engine.
July 4, 20178 yr My Lincoln is getting torn up from work. I need a beater. I had to drive my Dad's truck last week and had to fill that bitch up 3 times in 5 days. Need to find something a bit more efficient.

I would say the same about my 6.2 as well lol. A bigger turbo on the eco would kill the eco and make them a bit more lethargic from the go but with the right tune would really pull like helll higher

July 4, 20178 yr Good to know on the 5.0 vs eco. The 5.0 is way more available. I do need to go drive some. May do that this weekend or something.
