How do you like the 5.0L V8 in your F-150?

Hows the power and MPGs?

I love it. In Stock form I was getting 18 mpg. I'm it's new format I'm getting about 16mpg. As far as power goes mine is tuned with intake and exhaust. I have never felt like I didn't have enough power.

Ok thanks, just wondering how it compares to the 5.4L V8

5.4L 330cid
310 HP @ 5,000
365 TQ @ 3,750

5.0L 302cid
360 HP @ 5,000
380 TQ @ 4,200

I had a 2007 5.4l before this and it's night and day difference.

Interesting, more cubic inches and more liters, but less power

Did you ever drive the 3.5L Eco-Boost?

V6 with only 213 cid
365 HP @ 5,000
420 TQ @2,500

I test drove both before I settled on the 5.0l. For me personally it came down to the sound. Both performed great but thr sound coming out of thr 5.0l just put a smile on my face.

My dad has an F-150 with the 5.0 as his work truck and it makes a pretty noise

I rented an F-150 with the echo-boost and it sounded like a vacuum cleaner getting dirty with a minivan, not a noise a truck should ever make.:smilies27

Anymore info on the truck Phoneguy?

It's nothing crazy. Shortened cab and chassis truck to 120" wheelbase, lockers front and rear. It's a tbi350/sm465/np205. I do have a build thread on pirate4x4, but more pictures on my Instagram @ rkeller51.

Spent some time at Silver Lake Sand Dunes this weekend. I beached it right on the peak of one dune.

My stock 1992 k2500 before I left Texas for North Dakota. Spun a bearing in Kansas on the way up. The TL80E trans was rebuilt 3000 miles ago so I went with a GMPP stocker 350 back in it. As she sits right now I have 265/75/16 ko2s in the back and mich. at2s up front. Once I wear these out I will be going a couple sizes bigger. The roof rack I built is 4'8" wide and 8' long 18" high. Just pulled rear mat and headliner yesterday. Building a roll out drawer system for my shotguns and duck hunting gear in the near future.
