    Its AMAZING.

    I had a 2011 Raptor a few years back with the 6.2L V8, then went to the Tacoma due to MPG issues on the 6.2L Raptor. This new 3.5L TwinTurbo Ecoboost engine is an absolute dream compared to the previous 6.2L. Its even getting better MPG than my modded Tacoma did

    Its never gonna be as reliable as a Toyota. But, as long as I have a warranty, I couldnt be happier.

    Like, so many.
    I'm glad to hear it's so good. I'll never own one, but I love them and was bummed when they dropped the V8.

    That's interesting I was kind of turned off by the Eco-Boost engine, but seems like you would know best having owned both versions. My friend has a v8 T4R and his dad has the new one with the v6 and he still prefers the v8, but I doubt he has ever looked at his MPGs.
