right, but my current trailer puller, a ram 2500, gets prob about 12 mpg on its own, and maybe about 8-9 when pulling the trailer, and I think its capacity is about 8000 lbs. so this would be a big improvement for me. funny I was just at three different ford dealers a couple months ago looking at F250s, you'd think one of them would have mentioned this F15o ecoboost could pull nearly as much.

How is it that this has 70 more torque than the same engine in the SHO, Flex, and the Lincolns, but same hp? Imagine if they put that engine in a mustang with 365hp/420 tq.
