Can't argue with that logic PB....five years is a long time for inherent issues to hide so we would all know by now if the 3.5 was a dog or had reliability issues. The HD towing package adds more than a bar on the back, it effectively will make your engine (potentially) last longer...

Yep it began in 2011. Ford did a great job with all their motors on the 2011 rerun. You had the 5.0 Coyote, 3.5L EcoBoost, and 6.2L Boss all have been great. Then again they’ve always got it right (let’s forget about the 6.0&6.4 though for this statement).
