It is a nice truck but does have many down falls. It's horrible around town, the acceleration is not very good, lowest tow rating for a 1500 and the diesel comes at a premium. Dodge is close but just not there yet.
My buddy has 2014 f150 fx4 black edition with 5.0l v8. Sick truck, going to trade her in Monday v8 too hard on gas. My boost average around town 13l per 100 km. Highway I average 9 if I drive like an old man 10 120km and 14 with my boat.
This thread is gonna get ugly. All I know is I have owned v8 now have Eco boost will never go back to v8 (unless mustang GT). Ford is putting all thier R&D in the ecoboost, there won't be a v8 option in a 1500 in next few years. Even mustang going ecoboost. Just is what it is.
