Give me a plug in pickup with 20 miles of range and a HO 3.5 ecoboost in the 450hp and 510ft lbs.  take my money!!!!

Im done with the eco boost personally...its fuel mileage while towing is a deal breaker for me.

i put 140k on my 07 sivlerado in just under 7 years.  Couple front end joints,  new fuse block as dust got under it and it corroded and i snapped the rear window cable trying to open it when it was frozen shut.  Liked it a lot and it was the longest i had ever kept a vehicle.  burned a quart to quart and a half between oil changes after 90k.  Prob should have run it another couple of years TBH.   

I sold my 01 Sierra with 170k on it to my bud (he was on hard times) and he ran it for another 100k and sold it for more than I sold it to him for! :wall:

I don’t tow anymore unless I rent a trailer from Home Depot.....  the performance of the ecoboost is what I would be after....  I don’t have a vehicle that I own currently that gets any better then 15.7 mpg according to the displays on the dash.  I don’t concern myself with MPG’s.  

I want an electric driving the front wheels with the 3.5 ecoboost driving the rear wheels on an f150.  Something like the Volvo XC60 t8 system

3/4 tons (and up) are better for towing larger loads anyway.

Well I havent towed with a 2018 F150 but I like a heavier vehicle when towing heavier loads. I have towed 7,000-9,000 lbs with my Ram and yeah it can be done but it just throws the trucks around too much. Hook it up to the bigger trucks and its like butter.

Your ram is the worst out of the 3 half tons for towing....and has the lowest tow rating.

Yeah I like that I can hook up to a 26’ enclosed trailer and forget that it’s back there

1500 Rams are the absolute worst for towing
