Not only on paper but to the rear wheels too, 365hp @5000 rpm and 420 tq@2500 rpm will blow the doors off the 5.0 Litre.

actually the ecoboost only gets about 315hp to the rear wheels...only 5 more than the 5.0
the ecoboost has about 40 more ft/lbs of torque
if i were going to buy a truck and leave it stock, i would go with the ecoboost....but i like to void warranties

I know but the 420 ft/lb of torque at 2500 rpm is where it gets the 5.0 and gets it bad.SHANE704 wrote:actually the ecoboost only gets about 315hp to the rear wheels...only 5 more than the 5.0

Went to the lot looking for an ingot silver 145" 5.0 4x4 crew lariat and drove away in a 2012 fx4 dark gray 145" crew ecoboost.
