I drove an '11 Ecoboost for about a week and put 800 miles on it.

Very smooth, very quiet, nice power application and still posted 18 MPG's while I was beating the dog snot out of it. I'm glad I ended up buying the 6.2 V8 but appreciate the Ecoboost none the less.

Good things to come for these Eco's!

Thanks Mike! Yes, the cut-aways show the direct injection nicely.

Nice to see it up close, I always like those cutaway engines. Reminds me of the old visible V8 I built as a kid. Thanks for posting.
