[QUOTE="Bri-guy, post: 152536, member: 1444"] I have had the 2.7 eco for the past year and had a 5.0 v8 prior to that. I get about 4-5 mpg better mileage with the 2.7 and a lot more accelleration. No difference in power when towing by boat or camper. The 2.7 actually gets better mileage when towing. The biggest different I noticed was the mileage on the 2.7 (aluminum body) is really affected by wind -- both good and bad depending on the direction you are driving. My brother has the 3.5 and likes it. I wouldn't get the 5.0 again; the ecoboost is really nice when you need to accellerate. Especially on the highway. [/QUOTE]
