Hey all. I wanted to tell you about a great award that the Ford F-150 won. Now I know most of you do not know this, but the Ford F-150 won the “Truck of the Year” award which is announced by Motor Trend Magazine. One of the big reasons that this truck won this award was because of its Turbocharged EcoBoost engine. This engine mixes efficiency with power. In fact, this engine is more powerful than the regular 5.0 L V-8 one. The 2011 Ford F-150 can also tow more than the 5 L V-8 when equipped with this engine.
