The 2.7 may be what i need then. Only thing i'll be towing is a tr196 or golf cart/utv. Yall really have me thinking now. I was pretty set on the 5.0...
The harder I practice, the luckier I get.

I have a 2020 crew cab 4×4 with the 5.0 v8 and the 10 speed auto transmission. Got around 3100 miles on it with no complaints so far. Went to Bham and back a couple of weeks ago and averaged 20.4 miles per gallon. I have same truck with around 3300 miles on it. Bought new in mid September and one two different occassions I have had crazy electrical issues. Once I had no power windows, locks, windshield wipers, radio, etc and after turning truck off and back on it went in to limp mode and check engine light came on. I left the truck off for a couple hours and it reset. A few weeks ago I drove around town one Friday night with no radio because it wouldnt work no matter what I tried. It began working normal again that Saturday and been fine since. Other than those two issue I love the amount of room the truck has. The 10spd tranny takes some getting used to.

Have you taken yours back for the recall on the back-up camera yet? I haven't and was just wondering what all was involved and how long to expect it to take.

I must be missing something, 2.7, 3.5, in a truck you plan on hauling stuff with does not sound kosher. Get the biggest engine they put in the thing. The biggest gas burner or the biggest diesel if you want one, this is a truck not a compact car.

I have a 2014 F150 4x4 with the 3.5 ecoboost. It is absolutely amazing at the power it has. I do some mixed city and hwy driving and get about 16mpg average. I was hauling an 18, car trailer with a 3800 car on it and really could not tell it was back there. And I'm not talking about just open interstate roads. I averaged 14mpg doing this. I have not driven a truck with the 2.7 but if I was just gonna haul an ATV/lawnmower or something small. I'd dang sure be looking at one

If made money towing, I'd get a 3/4 ton, but I just tow toys for fun.
I'll be getting a 3.5. Over 400# torque at 2500 rpm matches some diesels.

Oh and the 5.0 actually sounds good running compared to the V-6's but I am old school.
