lots of problems with those Eco boost motors now I see them needing major work all the time in 2024

I get the tests, but notice they never test against Toyota Tundra 5.7 V8. 5.7 is a beast of a motor, far above any of the domestic competition.

Still got my 2015 2.7 ecoboost and has been flawless:)

2014 F150.... eco boostover 160.000 miles gonna be -8 tomorow and its gonna run and start tomorow.

Mine must be a complete lemon. 2018 model. Had to replace water pump at 80k. Now has 105k and is in the shop getting new cam phasers, timing chain and guides, and purge valve ($5200 parts and labor) Had absolutely been the least dependable truck I’ve ever owned

Just purchased 3 months ago a 2017 F150 3.5 Ecoboost Platnium FX4 and still learning the truck power train. Had 104000 miles on it and as of today it has 110000 miles. Had spark plugs changed because of a misfire. It is tuned by 5 star tuning 93 performance tow.

2013 ford echo boost, cam phases issue, truck runs great great fuel mileage but cold start up rattling for a second

I knew alot about twin turbo v6's but being canadian a aluminum body? i was sold. those first aluminum trucks 2015 or somthing like that, they look mint. id take a aluminum body twin turbo duratec 3.5 all day

“Ecoboost is the future”. Reporting from the future: Ecoboosts all died, the 5.0s made it.

I have the second gen. I am a believer

Valve covers are not built to last that’s FOR SURE

I would LOVE to see this same test with the 5.0 because I have a 2011 f150 supercab lariat 4wd and 3.73 gears and has the 5.0 and I want to see what it is really capable of.

200,000 degrees?

i remember this video.......built Ford Tough my ass. My 2013 had a constant check engine light from 20K miles to about 75K miles - constantly in the shop. timing chain rattle started around 40K miles but the dealer refused to diagnose it until it was out of warranty. Luckily Ford paid for some of the cost to repair. Truck has had turbo leaks, catalytic converter failure, engine misfires, transmission issues with the lead frame, fan blower issues, more misfires, rear brake issues, and of course MyTouch issues. the funny thing about this truck is that after 75K miles it has run nearly perfect - go figure. it now has 136K on it and going strong (knock on wood). i keep it because i don't want to pay $80K for a new truck and inherit the poor quality Ford is having with their new trucks. Surprised Ford didn't mention the carbon build up thing in this video.......even the gen 2's have it

I want to know how they ran it so hot on the track with the turbos glowing red and didn’t have any exhaust manifolds go bad? That’s been the only real repair I’ve had to do with mine from running it too hot towing in the summer! Otherwise it’s been a GREAT truck!

bought my 2015 3.5 ecoboost. and this video did convince me :) at 110k miles, i had to replace turbo cooling connector because of coolant leak. Painful to do at home, but do able .

That baja truck does not sound like a v6 ecoboost...

Is this a 3.5 or 2.7

Had 2014 F150 XLT with that 3.5 turbo,amazing motor...drove from bowling green kentucky to Erie pa with one tank of gas,and i was driving 80 to 90 MPH and that motor was just hummin along

I inherited my dads 2018 f150 xlt 4x4. It has the 2.7L ecoboost with 34k miles. I absolutely love this truck.

STOP THE MADNESS !!!! VOTE TRUMP 2024 !!!!! 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲

Why does it keep making v8 noises in some scenes 😂

Got my 2013 ecoboost 2 years ago. Love the truck took auch good care of her and at 130k miles the pistons are fried .. junk

Hmmm. They did all that to it and THEIR exhaust never warped and pulled from the block... Their turbos never leaked and needed replacement. Their cam phasers never rattled like a kid's toy. GUESS SOME ARE JUST LUCKY.

My 2007 240k miles still going 💪

Makes a guy who just bought a Supercrew F150 3.5l FX4 feel pretty good.

what a great ad

😅😂 ford tough alright I was worried about towing my camper but not now lol

Ford 😌

This is the reason i bought a 2019 2nd gen . Love my ecoboost. 60k kms on it right now. My buddys has 450k kms

Watching this ! Makes me proud to own a f150! Its funny how many people hate on ford and dont even know why there hating on it !

Rear tire eater for sure!! I love mine.

typical FORD video. fuck this all u can go fuck yourself. Im watching a neutral channel.

I’m sorry that doesn’t sound like an eco boost

From a cinematic perspective this looks freakin amazing

After 10yrs and over 300k miles the engine still runs but overheat under heavy drive or towing anything behind. New rad, pump, therm, timing comp, head gasket. Ect, ect, ect..... Where is the problem on that 2012 f150 3.5 4x4. I will read all suggestions and following the smartest ones. 😂😂 Thanks in advance!!!

Just got me one and remembering now that I watched this video years ago thinking, "if Mike Rowe approves, it must be good". Cheers to the ecboost fam! Glad to be a memeber.

I love our eco boost ford..... But i gotta say this......they should of tested this against the chevy 6.6 non diesel......its my work truck......they mentioned 80 mph at full throttle......80 mph has me just over 2000 rpms on the the highway.....with a 24ft trailer loaded with a 40....50 lb bags of fert ..... Two zsprays and 100 gallons of water.....however we have a fusion sport 2.7 Eco AWD.... So much fun to drive.....HERE IS THE ONE THING THE SEPARATES CHEVY FROM FORD.....WHEN THINGS BREAK.....AND THEY WILL.....CHEVYS ARE 100X EASIER TO WORK ON.....THATS WHY I USE THEM FOR WORK.....AND FORDS FOR AT HOME.....

I don’t see how the cam phasers can fail if they test them like this. So maybe the should test them to 300,000 miles.

They only test them to 150,000 miles? Why can’t they test them to 300,000?

This video made me buy my 2018 3.5 Ecoboost F150. 2 years in, it's a F'ing MONSTER!!! I love her even after trading in my beloved Audi S4 (6 speed manual). If you're watching this and considering a truck, buy this one.

Everybody dumped them at 70 80,000 miles because of the cam phasers go out of them

Cool story. I guess that's why I don't have a vacuum pump seal failure, and I don't have a right exhaust manifold seal failure. Liars.

I got a 2016 ford f150 platinum super crew fx4 3.5 L ecoboost and i wouldnt change it for nothing ! Great power and acceleration. I even put big rims and tires on it and its still as fast as before! Had it for about 6 years and i have had zeroo problems just normal things like brakes, oil changes and thats about it ohh and new battery !

Ford also does a lot of their testing with van services that go from the Denver or Gunnison to ski resorts. I have been on many trips to ski in Colorado and watched Ford vans sit near redline, fully loaded, all the way up the mountain, and then, all the way down the mountain, at redline, in lower gears, to save the brakes. One van service that I used said that Ford does all of the fluid changes on their vans and gives the vans a new engine and transmission at $150K and the van service then sells that van to a ski service located in the Andes in South America. Ford then disasembles the engine and looks for all of the wear points. Knowing that those motors and transmissions can take that kind of abuse for 150K miles is the one of the reasons that I'm a Ford truck guy.

My 12 5.0 yotte would do everything that Eco boost did and the air intake would be barking and it would sound a whole lot cooler in the process

My truck just turned over 168k miles and she's still ticking like a clock

My lasted 130k…getting a new engine as we speak :/. I also bought it with 120K
