Turbo Truck?

[PDenbigh]

I've been following Ford's new 3.5L Turbo 6 gas engine for the F-150 and find it really interesting. I am looking forward to test driving it and seeing what the mid-long term reviews of it are. If I were in the market for a new truck, I'd be an early adopter of this for sure.

Then again, I've always known and enjoyed turbo engines. The diesel turbos have been through hell and back too.

They did a "torture test" series which was pretty hard core - <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.ford.com/trucks/f150/experiencef150/">http://www.ford.com/trucks/f150/experiencef150/</a><!-- m -->

Yeah yeah, it's done by ford so it's biased, yada yada. Biased or not, I was still impressed.

What do you think? Would you drive a 365hp/420ftlb 22mpg turbo F150?
