BTW, this truck is AMAZINGGGGGGG!
I am fairly new to trucks, I am more of a bimmer enthusiast and have plenty of experience in that field.. more into track events, drift events, and high performance driving schools.. off roading and crawling is a new thing to me, super fun.. but don't know where to go and honestly what's the cool/fun thing to do, but i admit all wheel drive donuts on uneven terrain flinging dirt everywhere is pretty freaking ridiculous.. this truck literally feels like it is meant to take some turns too.. the ability to counter steer in this is way better than i had imagined it to be, the truck keeps surprising me more and more.. i guess that steering wheel center stripe is not there just for show...it certainly feels like it has a limited slip differential compared to the 2012 ecoboost platinum i was driving before.. it truly does let you get sideways..
speaking of which, does anybody have preference to what engine is better? or has personally had experience with both the ecoboost and 6.2 engine? at first i was disappointed of the 6.2 vs the ecoboost, it felt like the ecoboost had a better throttle response and more lower end torque, but i feel like it's the opposite now.. i gassed it the other day and was shocked, it literally felt like the engine wanted to jump out of the truck.. i'm thinking a nice tune would unleash the beast.. at least make the throttle response more similar to the ecoboost..
i know the weight of both trucks has to a good factor too. Honestly at this point if somebody gave me the option to choose a raptor ecoboost vs raptor 6.2 i would not know what to choose from.. at least with the ecoboost you get better gas mileage and the ability to easily boost the engine more..
i know with a tune a ecoboost engine is no question better then the 6.2 (at least in the sense of power), but i would like to hear ya'lls thoughts?

I also picked up the interior LED kit including the replacements for the ridiculous map lights. I will get you the link to where I purchased. Bedrug is next as well as a long wishlist.
