Can anyone confirm or deny this? I’ve been hypothesizing this for a while now seeing how at 75mph or higher, the Ecoboosts are deep into the boost. I’ve also seen claims that it’s more efficient at towing than the Ecoboosts, which boosts (pun intended) my hypothesis even more. With the NA V8, you are only getting the power that those 8 cylinders are capable of providing, while the turbo engines pump air and more fuel to make more power to overcome the increased resistance.
Edit: I guess my question wasn’t too clear. Is the 5.0 more efficient at 75-80 mph than the Ecoboosts when NOT towing?
