First off . . . . Gas mileage and cost is not a issue for me !
I have been test driving the 2015 F150's recently. I have test driven them with the Eco-boost and the V8 engines. I have driven many, over the course of 3 months.
It is my opinion that the V8 provides a much more enjoyable ride.
I know the numbers don't reflect this (hp and torque) but I sure don't feel that way. When I stomp on it, the feel from the V8 is MUCH more enjoyable.
(Also, the new aluminum changes and weight reduction makes the truck feel much peppier and unique from the 1/2 ton Chevy's and Dodge's that I've recently driven.)
I guess I definitely feel like the V8 is better than the V6 (even if the V6 is turbo'd)
