That's my favorite. "Throw X or X in it and goodbye Ford!!".

Throw a Formula 1 engine in the F-150 and it's goodbye 6.2.

See? I can do it, too!

Cummins > than any truck motor made. I love you guys always talking about racing. When the truck was made for pulling a trailer and working it. A twin turbo truck will get less mpg when pulling a trailer than a NA V8 will get. You guys really think a twin turbo v6 is gonna last 100k without going through a few turbos along the way? Mean while GM V8s and Dodge will keep running past 200k. Proven motors against unproven Technology since thats what Ford is good at doing.
