Power of the twin turbo v6

This engine really puts out the ponys. it tows ok but not like my diesel. The twin turbo does not get the claimed fuel economy. And now the start up rattle. I seem to be getting the run around on the repair. Is anyone getting that engine repaired ? I'm considering speaking with an attorney and feel that might be just wasting more money.

Welcome to FTE.

I see you mentioned this issue on another thread here on FTE. Please be a little more descriptive of your truck and your issue(s) and you remedies thus far.

Please, no legal speak here.

Dont think Id even compare a SD with a diesel to a F150 with the Ecoboost. theres about 300+ ft lbs more torque...........not much of a comparision

That's true, but there's also 1,500+ lbs more weight too.
