Too bad they don't make one with a 6.2 anymore. Only V8 they offer is the 5.0. They replaced the 6.2 with a new high output 3.5 ecoboost

My problem with the ecoboost is it sounds gay as fuck. Call me an old school redneck, but my truck needs that v8 sound lol

I hear you. Exhaust systems make it sound worse. Is why I'm only going to do downpipes and leave the rest of exhaust stock.

They sound worse than a fgt ricer exhaust imo, Got a friend with an ecoboost f150 and it sounds terrible. Stock exhaust is the only way

And what kind of bullshit is. 2.7L. Ain't no truck supposed to have. 2.7L, or. 3.5L.
Trucks have v8's.





In before the future is now old man.

your truck is an I6, gtfo
Scuzi, 6 in a row ready to tow.
Built the way it should be. Look at equipment built for the job, ag/farm/heavy equipment/big rigs.
All inline.

No truck should have the same motor as a lancer lol


Edit: but I forgot this is a build thread. So I'll quit the chatter.

you said truck, did not specify work truck, diesel or the like.

Removed the turbo intake silencers today and lined up the fenders a bit better. Also got the ac recharged. The truck is heading to the body shop on Monday.

What was wrong with the truck cosmetically? Didn't look like much beside grille bumper and headlights

Looks like the original body shop when they took the truck apart to see what was wrong with it they threw the fenders on the ground so they front fenders and pretty scratched up they will be getting repainted.
