I happen to really like my 5.4. I am at 120k miles, bought it with 90k. The 2010 5.4 doesn't have issues. The spark plug thing was cured, I did my plugs no problems. The cam actuators, the other early 5.4 problem is supposed to be fixed as well for 2010, and mine isn't making any bad noises. The...

Might want to check your link... That is a regular EB F-150. Not a Roush, not a Raptor, not a smoking deal by any stretch of the imagination....

You can already pre order a new Ranger. The only engine offering is the 2.3 eb. No diesels and worse yet, no manual transmission, just the stupid 10 speed auto...

Pretty sure the only ecoboost engine going in the Ranger is the 2.3L 4 cylinder. That body shell has been around for years and was never designed to hold wider V6 engines, just narrow inline 4's, mostly turbo diesels up until it's US introduction

It is almost impossible to get either engine to pull WOT at 1250 rpm. The torque convertor unlocks and revs go to 2000+ immediately. Torque at 1250 is completely irrelevant. I am a V8 guy but there is simply no denying the power of the ecoboost engine. It makes more power and torque than the...

I have run a lot of duratracs, none on a Raptor but on Dodges and Toyotas. My KO2s are getting louder with 20K miles on them, just like duratracs do. Pitfalls of the duratrac are weaker sidewalls than the KO2, higher price and a tendency to cup the edges on the front tires. Regular rotations...

You do realize that there are not actually 6,8 or 10 plys in the tires anymore right? That was for bias ply tires not radials. In the KO2, there is actually one more sidewall layer (ply) in the E range than the C range but in the duratrac there are the exact same number of layers in the...

Uhhh, no, I did mention I have several more. Maybe they are real folks just like the rest of us. My experiences have been overwhelmingly negative. Brow beating my wife is a dangerous game, probably similar for most. The other seriously retarded events probably do not warrant mentioning...

This whole notion that I will someday "need them most", is the stupidest, most bizarre assertion I have ever encountered. Are you so incapable of dealing with life that you really feel a cop is going to be the solution? That is fucking pathetic. After the shit they pulled on my wife last...

If these two posts do not cause you concern, you may be part of the problem IMO ---------- Post added at 01:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:02 PM ---------- I am going to write you a ticket, and you are not going to get out of it... Sorry guys but that sure sounds like a...

So by your logic, I should go out and get caught for speeding so I can spend my time in court, not at work being productive earning my living, to fix what has been broken by the CLOWNS in law enforcement? How about they just adjust their behavior, since that is in fact were the real problem...

Well, you guys seem to want to keep it going so.... Admittedly, my post was worded poorly. Probably a result of being so fed up with bad behavior by cops and ridiculous justifications for such behaviors. I think only a coward hides behind stupid laws, seems like a LOT of that going on. I also...

Well you know what they say about opinions...

Last I checked, that goes BOTH ways... Still projecting that air of superiority, good luck with that.

Do I now? I learned plenty about bo when he started with his first comment about getting a ticket from him. Then when it was suggested that the ticket could be beat, he puffed up his chest and said that has never happened. Ooops, someone had beat such a ticket in several jurisdictions. Bo outed...

...and people wonder why I hate cops. What a freaking joke. Cops like bo are the ones that get shot, probably should give that some thought. You give your comrades in tax collection a bad name son.

The tires have changed a little over the years. The original KO was offered in a 35" D rating, the KO2's are either C or E rated. The E rated tire has a three ply sidewall, the C rated tired has a 2 ply sidewall. BFG claims they are tougher than KO's regardless. My Gen1 SCAB is on E rated KO2's...

So THAT is how you compensate for the loss of use of your **** from grinding it into your bike saddle... The 6.2 makes you think it still might work after that foolishness. Adults on bicycles is just about the dumbest thing I can think of...

I would love a working third brake light.... $300 new is crazy. Of course most people aren't going to take a lot of time to part out their damaged vehicle.

Right up until you have to go back up the mountain... Then the bike with the engine kills pedal power. Same stupid argument from skiers who think snowmobiles are less technical or less exercise. I noticed road bikes mentioned too. That is an excellent way to get yourself dead around here as...

You are old enough to drive a car, and obviously have been able to buy one. What on earth do you need to haul around those childrens toys for? Apologies if they are actually for your children...

Are you sure you have to sue? My sons accident was in Colorado and I realize the laws are probably different but, I did not have to sue. When the doctors bills were submitted I was offered the cash settlement from which I had to pay the ~$1600 hospital bill. If I recall correctly that was 4x the...

I think the chart coincides perfectly. Keep in mind, by 2000 rpm the eb is on boost and the torque curve is climbing rapidly above the 6.2. Floor the truck and the toque convertor immediately allows the rpm to hit 2000 rpm and climb. You have more torque on launch in the eb than the 6.2, that is...

I would also GO TO THE DOCTOR, and have your back looked at. ANY injury on your part will result in a MUCH larger settlement. My young son was run off the road by a UPS driver, witnesses and all. He rolled the truck. He went in and even though he checked out OK, the $1600 doctor visit netted...

Just to play some devils advocate... engines can be, and are, built for the additional stresses of boost and rpm. The 3.5 eb was a clean sheet, always destined to be turbo'ed engine wasn't it? Just like if you wanted to reliably run 15 psi through a 6.2, you would be wise to build for it or it...
