As disappointed as most of us are about the tiny ecoboost, imagine how disappointed Ford GT fans/owners are about Ford throwing in an ecoboost in a supercar! Ford what are you thinking?

I like it but won't be willing to pay the price that will be slapped on this thing.

Im sure its a preproduction detail but that's the sunroof off the 2014, not the new huge 2015 one.

Only the screws are getting the new twin panel one. Scabs still get the single one.

How bad is the up keep of the new raptor going to be? You have seen some of the new stuff first hand, any thoughts?



Turbo's need catch cats and intakes cleaned every 40K or so. (oil blow buy for all the new people to turbos)



10 speed tyranny grenades, what is that going to cost to repair?



Yes if you buy a big $$$ truck you should be able to afford it but I think the upkeep on this is going to be more than people think.

I'v got a 12 EB :4x screw with around 100k and i haven't had 1 issue with the motor, only issue I've have with it or cracked brake calibers which every Ford I've ever owned has done :/ lol. i've had regular scheduled maintenance and they've never cleaned the intakes, that I know of anyways I'm going to look into it today. I'm not sure if I'm sold on the idea of it in the raptor but it is a very good motor. I'm sure I'll end up keeping mine, I just hit 4000 miles on it today, but I will envy a little those that buy the 17 lol. I am jealous of the interior and the 360 cameras,

FWIW, the 3.5 Ecoboost in the 2015 Navigator gets 380hp@5250 an 460tq@2750. VS 411@5500 and 434@4500 for the 6.2L

It also gets 16city/22hwy for mileage, which let's be honest, does matter if you drive a lot. I spent >$7000 on fuel the first year I owned by truck.
