While many truck buyers don’t made the most out of the vehicles,
there are plenty of truck buyers that require their vehicle’s hauling,
towing, and off-roading capabilities. These drivers, which make up a
large portion of Chicago Ford
dealers' customers, wouldn’t think of trading in their trucks for a
more economical car simply because they’re practical and they require
those capabilities.
With that in mind, Ford
has been busy developing an engine that will deliver the power to haul
and tow, while also providing more fuel efficiency. The 2011 V6 EcoBoost engine is the solution and will soon find its way into the Ford F-150.
The design of the engine employs a turbo charged engine and
direct-injection, which Ford promises will help to deliver V8 power
with V6 efficiency.
Ford’s EcoBoost V6 is an attractive alternative to a diesel engine
as gas engines are cheaper to build. The new EcoBoost V6 will deliver
around 340 horsepower and 340 pound-feet of torque, which is certainly
on par with large V8 variants. The engine also promises to achieve 16
mpg in the city and 23 mpg on the highway, which should be a huge plus
for many truck buyers at Nashville Ford dealers. And, thanks to its ample power, Los Angeles Ford dealers
believe Ford’s new EcoBoost will also be able to work hard and tow just
about anything. This is helped by a new cooling system that absorbs
heat within the combustion chamber, helping to reduce the stress of
heavy loads.
The new Ford EcoBoost V6 will also be quiet, thanks to an active
sound cancellation system. With the powerful of a V8, the fuel
consumption of a V6, and even quieter than ever before, the new
EcoBoost V6 is exptected to be a competitive engine choice at Keene NH Ford dealers when it makes its way into Ford F-150 trucks in 2010.
