    It sucked in every aspect of pulling.
    That's is your opinion. Much different than a fact. I live the way mine tows.

      LOL! One of friends had a Dodge 1 ton work truck, (Cummins) He said it had a lot of power and was a really good truck for the most part, if you didn't mind carrying the dash in your lap...

        There is no way that little 6 cylinder will stay together in the long run, and when it breaks it will be epic.

          I've had a '14 ecoboost. It pulled my racecar great, but when it started sucking intercooler condensation and left me on I45 for an hour until the misfired cleared up, I sold it.

          The wife has the 6.2 in her yukon Denali, feels great but havnt pulled with it yet.

            If I was going to get the GM 6.2, I would wait for the 2018 with the 10 speed transmission...tranny developed jointly between Ford & GM.

            Only two vehicles debuting it are the 17 Raptor & 17 ZL1...it's legit.

                The sticker inside the fuel door on my '17 clearly says premium fuel.

                        Tell that to people with 200k plus on them. I'm sure it will surprise them.

                          I haven't found one yet who did more than pull a ranger or a super heavy load of stuff from Target twice a week.

                          I've heard of 3 catastrophic engine failures, and a bunch of "condensation issues" or some such...

                            Possibly. But there are plenty of turbo charged engines that have been around for a long time.

                            Turbos ain't new technology.

                            Remember the power the mid 90s turbo Supras were capable of making?

                                I do, and I did some really ridiculous stuff in some girls Eclipse turbo. I had a good friend with a Buick grand national too, but none were asked to pull twice their weight very often.

                                I think this "small motor on turbo" thing has a future, but they haven't figured it out yet. And I don't care how much boost you stuff in a 3.5 liter V6, it just won't perform like a big V8.....YET!

                                Honestly I think this is going to wind up at a smaller V8, with a mild boost...but that hasn't been proven to last yet either.
