Apparently they didn't tell you at the seminar about all the problems people are having with the ECO-BUST F-150. Stalling, loss of power, limp mode, stuttering... and the list goes on.

A big simple V8 making the same power will be inherently more reliable and have lower maintenance costs. Very desireable features for many people.
