Im not butthurt at all, like I give a **** what someone else drives. Its the hypocrisy of bitching about the 3.5s fuel mileage as a downfall, then stating you drive a boosted 6.2, ( do you get single digit mileage?) and THEN, now youre doubling down by saying you don't care about fuel mileage, after you ******* about the 3.5's fuel mileage.....

I still say I could care less about the MPG. I simply do not drive enough miles on it for it to matter. If you educated yourself you would know that a boosted 6.2 with a good tune will still get 13-14 mpg all day long on highway. My point was you said "great". Nobody buys a Raptor for great MPG and the 3.5 is still sub 20 on its best day on premium fuel.. Don't kid yourself. People wanting "great" MPG will buy a new powerstroke f150 or maybe a 2.7 if that is their concern.

As much as you say you are not butt-hurt it is obvious. I drove the 2017 back to back with the Roush and didn't like it as much as boosted 6.2. Is that really that hard for you to understand? Should I write that in crayon for you?

Sounds like he can't afford to upgrade.

Oh god. Now we have a guy throw his money sack (or just sack) out there to prove he is a superior man. Money is not an issue either. Was not a deciding factor in my choice to get a Roush.

There are plenty of 6.2 guys out there that are very well off and simply don't want the ECO. To make this a financial status issue is idiotic. :ROFLJest:

don't get mad at me because you bought an inferior truck. Im sure you could trade it in somewhere at a minor loss.

I'll keep this simple for you because maybe it didn't sink in above:

Boosted 6.2 until I can buy a boosted 7.0
Boosted 6.2 until I can buy a boosted 7.0
Boosted 6.2 until I can buy a boosted 7.0
Boosted 6.2 until I can buy a boosted 7.0
Boosted 6.2 until I can buy a boosted 7.0
Boosted 6.2 until I can buy a boosted 7.0
Boosted 6.2 until I can buy a boosted 7.0
Boosted 6.2 until I can buy a boosted 7.0
Boosted 6.2 until I can buy a boosted 7.0

Hopefully that will sink in now.

Most other GEN 2 owners will jump ship on the 3.5 when the 7.0 is released as well! Probably a lot of GEN 1 owners as well.

Hopefully you are taking really good care of your truck because you might be waiting a while.

I hear you there. Ford had been dragging their feet more than I have ever seen. The GT500 release has been dragging along at a snails pace. The 7.0 as well. I think we should see the release of both by the auto shows next spring (fingers crossed).

Those 18 and 19 GT 5.0 mustangs are sure appealing though!

Mileage is really not a concern of mine as any crew cab truck with 35's truck does not get "great" mileage.

In all fairness, it was you that brought up mileage. You didn't seem to have a problem criticizing mileage when you were talking about EB motors. In fact, when you mentioned it, it comprised of 50% of your complaints. You mentioned blown engines and mileage.

Why shift goal posts now?
