Pretty cool watching those two modded trucks run. I figured the EcoBoost would pull up top. I'd probably still take the Tundra though!

I'm so torn...I love them both! Don't think I'd complain if I owned either one, but I'd put a muffler on that V6 STAT cause it sounds like the poopoo.

Yeh....they both are pretty nice and deceivingly quick

Think Eco ran a 13.6ish last time out...but since hes lowered it and few other things

Tundra is going to track next Friday....should be close to/in 13s id say

I've had a 5.7 Tundra, and driven the EcoBoost, I would handily take the Ford!

As far as the trucks go, the Ford is every bit as good if not better than the Tundra, and FI beats the pants off of NA any day!

While I won't debate your opinion on these trucks, seeing that you've owned one of them, I will say that I am very disappointed in the number of recalls/warranty repairs that the ecoboosts have experienced. That said,I completely agree, yay Ford! (For the purpose of this argument, and because I LOVE Tundras, I will ignore the thousands of camshaft failures that the Tundra experienced in it's first two years of production...minor issue)

The Ford is leaps and bounds better than a pos tundra any day of the week. However ive seen a few blown 5.7 tundras nasty trucks for power. But are **** for pulling.

Yes to all this, especially to V and Nick.

It looks like this Ecoboost isn't suffering from timing retarding (like mine) after 3 seconds of full throttle.
