Who’s got the highest mileage raptor eco boost?

[Richard Hinsley]

2010 and 20 are the most reliable Raptors so Ford must've fixed the cam phaser issue.

Some are you Gen 1 guys so defensive; it wreaks of insecurity. This is a Gen 3 thread discussing the Gen 2/3 engine, it had nothing to do with the antiquated 6.2 until "dspangler" (kuan, azrael, predator raptor) started derailing the thread with his usual trolling. Regardless, the drone of the 6.2 is horrible with any aftermarket exhaust. It is not in any way a performance engine; comparing it to the sound of an actual high performance V8 (DOHC 4.6/5.4/5.8 Modular, 5.0 Coyote/Roadrunner, 5.2 Voodoo/Predator) makes that even more blatantly obvious. This is where the 6.2 resides in it's natural habitat:

Now can we please keep the thread on track?

Gotta love that 6.2 growl.

I have a 2011 Gen 1 6.2L V8 with 148xxx miles. Attached is a recent Blackstone Labs oil test showing it to be ready for another 148xxx. I also own a 2012 F150 with the 3.5 EcoBoost and 168xxx miles. It's making the dreaded cam phaser noise at startup, and will definitely need an expensive repair this year. The newer versions of that motor are still experiencing this same problem.

Well, based on your unsubstantiated claims, it's a good thing that your "2012" is completely unrelated to the Gen 2 engine in the 2017+ Raptor. That's assuming you even own said vehicle, considering your bias against the newer, better, faster, lighter, stronger, more efficient trucks. If you so satisfied with the cast iron boat anchor in your antiquated Gen 1, why do you feel the need to troll a Gen 2/3 thread discussing accumulated mileage? Unfortunately for you, the answer is obvious.

If I want to hear a good sounding V8 I'll drive my Mustang Cobra. Not an outdated truck with a droning e-series fleet engine.

When the Gen1 came out it was the top dog overall performance truck. That was then, this is now. Ford abandoned the old design to make significant improvements. Although still a good truck, it’s just heavy and slow compared to new technology. You’re proving what others have said in that you’re just trolling a Gen2 forum because you jealous you don’t have one. It’s ok to be envious, but your comments are simply incorrect. Are you the new/same-old Sasquatch?

He is THE sasquatch. I can't even imagine a person with a life so pathetic that they not only join a forum to troll threads of newer vehicles they can't afford, but try and pretend that they own a previous generation while living in their parents basement. At some point it's just sad. I think we're well past all of that, this kid just needs to go away.

Was about to say the same about you.

2018 with 17?,000k miles and 2021 with 7500. Gen2 hasn’t cost a dime out than maintenance.

Who has or had the highest mileage raptor eco boost (Gen 2 or gen3). For those with high mileage any major issues?

The eco boost is also in the regular f-150 which has been sold a million times. Very large sample size with very little issues.

Matter of opinion.

Gen 3 bought 9/21 with about ~10,300 mi so far. No issues.
