Get the 3.5 Ecoboost. 21 mpg usual drive around mileage with 6 speed transmission. Plenty of power. About 11.5 MPG pulling the boat. Can be better if you stay out of the turbo. Great motor. Plenty of acceleration. It's a beast.
Ecoboost cost more than the V8. About $600 more on the sticker when I brought mine.

Randy knows whats up, Im pretty sure a Tundra helped him find a gold coin. Randy must not be an old. Olds are stupid and hate good trucks.
Team wolfs I had to perform. It took a minute to get it all in my mouth and another five to swallow it all.

Anyways, children.... I drive a 5.0 and my wife has an Ecoboost. The 5.0 is great for all around driving, her expedition has a ton of power, it feels like a rocket everytime I drive it. I might still get the 5.0 in my next truck, it's just been a great engine. But maybe the Ecoboost...
Either one tows better and gets better mpg than a turdra, that's for sure. Interior is better in my toddlers cozy coupe than any turdra. My lawn mower has better controls too.

I have a 2018 with the 5.0 with the 10 speed auto. It has 395 HP and is really fast. If you want to go fast. It gets 19.6 in town and 23 on the road. It'll pull just about anything you want to put behind it. Glad I got the 5.0. Love my truck.

I say ecoboost for sure.....we have a '17 Explorer Sport 365hp 3.5L twin turbo and it'll pull with the best of 'em. Only thing about this vehicle pulling that stinks is a shorter wheelbase.
