    When to trade in?

    50-58,000 will keep resale value at a good point. And under 26-29 months. OR, like me I still have a 2003 with 235,000 miles on it and looks and drives like new with only a set of plug on coils installed, the power trane has been perfect , no other parts at all! Other than oil/filters brakes/tires.

    Experience towing with ecoboost?

    I have to tell you that a diesel is not at all a economic vehicle, and a ford once you get some miles on it has a very good likely hood that it could cost you a few thousand a year just in repair cost!
