But WHY....lol. As Captain Slow would say, it goes "like a stabbed rat."

I have my mustang to go fast in. The ecoboost is the family hauler so I won't be modding this one.

I guess that's me coming from a V6 truck, and the potential for something on the EB to go out/wrong unexpectedly.

EB is solid.

look up the ecoboost torture test on youtube. they beat the hell outta that truck and then pulled the motor apart and it looked brand new. :challenge:

I've seen all those videos. I'm not dissing the EB at all, just saying that I wouldn't pay the premium price they ask for it if I wasn't going to use it as intended.

I got my 14 on D plan. But yes the EB is not cheap.

I got a used one for $25k that I modded lightly that will run fender to fender with half the cars in this club, and I tow nothing lol....these EB trucks are no joke

It's only a $750 or $1350 option IIRC. It's not much different in price at all and mpg can make up for it.

Bought ours as a new demo (2012- bought "new" in 8/12). 6k miles, never been registered so we got factory rebates and stuff still- $27500 with 5/60 warranty and all the other new car stuff.

Yea my ecoboost was 1095 on the sticker.

I'll take that bet.

I want to see too! Or I think you meant gas mileage "fender to Fender" with a slowstang.

I love the Forgestars. If you find a buyer not wanting them, I'm running my stock 2011 GT Premium wheels now. They just rolled 23k with the stock PZero tires.

I really don't want to derail this FS thread....

Wasnt a bet its already happened...lol


Not talking mileage. These trucks with a few bolt ons and a good tune can run high 12's at 5600+ pounds all day long. I wasn't trying to call anyone out or bet on a race was just trying to educate a little about how badass the EB motor in these trucks really is. I'm usually at coit every friday if you want to go for a ride in it...:)

Throw me an offer out in a pm. We might can make a deal.
