I’ve been interested in the ford 2.7. What mileage do you get, for every day driving?

dumb comment

The 2.7 EB is reliable but Ford ruined it a couple years ago with oil pump belts and EGR coolers that fail.

Ecocrap

⁠@@karlschauff7989that happened in 2017. Still no failures related to the changes. This is internet fodder.

Ford f150's don't hold up in car accidents I know from experience

it's been cheapened out just like everything else Ford

@@davidporter7051in what way??? The engine has been unchanged since 2017. Typical internet fodder.

Ford f150's are not built like a tank I had one and got into a car accident Not a good outcome

@@joshuaatkinson5810 tell me you know little without telling me you know little. It changed in 2018. Ford started using subpar oil pump drive tensioner. Recall. Faulty intake valves. Redesigned. Where have you been? Ford is the warranty repair and recall leader for 4 consecutive years.

Ford's don't hold up in accidents I know from experience

Safest full size truck. They are built to sacrifice to protect occupants zone.

I owned a f150 and got Into a car accident back in January and in my opinion and experience it didn't hold up well at all The cab and frame buckled into my leg and foot causing major damage

@@markcasler2671your alive!

@@markcasler2671 It's one of the safest vehicles on the road. Were the crash bars modified?

Ty

They're fleet trim trucks. 99% of truck buyers wouldn't even consider a WT or 'Custom' trim. LT is the "base" trim level.

@@karlschauff7989 who cares if they’re base trim, if you spend that kind of money on a truck I want the updated interior. Ford updates the entire line, not just for the “99%” !!! And a base trim truck is now $40,000, hardly cheap. It truly is comical to watch Chevy people defend this, as a Ford owner, if this was Ford doing this, I would be saying the same thing. I wouldn’t be defending it.

@@karlschauff7989 And as for people not selecting that trim, the dealership literally has one on the lot, hence how he tested it, so obviously they think someone will buy it!

@@marcg.3830 The kind of guy that whines about "spending that kind of money" while looking at a fleet trim truck probably shouldn't be buying a new truck in the first place. The Custom trim is an extension of the WT trim. The dealer has it on the lot for the same reason I'm willing to bet they have a Ford XL trim on the lot. And I bet you defend all kinds of cheap things Ford does lately, like routing oil pump belts behind timing chains in the 2.7 EB and 5.0 Coyote. Or Ford using those garbage plastic oil pans. Or the warped dashes on 2015-18 F-150's because of the garbage plastic Ford was using. Or Ford using failure-prone EGR coolers on the 2.7 EB when they don't use one on the 3.5EB. Or Ford using plastic on their engine exhaust heat exchanger (w/ Powerboost engine option) so that it warps and creates a big coolant leak. Ironic that you whine about truck prices, and then simultaneously criticize GM for not putting a more expensive interior in the fleet trims, which is exactly the kind of thing that has driven truck prices up.

@@karlschauff7989 wow, you really got your feelings hurt on this one! Believe me dude GM doesn’t care about you. No, I don’t defend anything Ford has done with cost cutting, but obviously you do with GM. Did you give GM a pass on the DOD issues that plagued their engines, how bout the lifter issues on the current ones, how bout the class action lawsuits over the 8 speed transmission?! And saying someone shouldn’t be buying a new truck if they complain about the prices, is exactly what all these manufacturers want, useful idiots such as yourself.

They both have the same displacement. 😂😂😂

The ford sounds like a mosquito

Ford ruined that by adding an oil pump belt that they routed behind the timing chains, and that EGR cooler. It's bad enough having EGR coolers on diesel engines. Now Ford decided to put that engine destroyer on a gas engine.

@@karlschauff7989 when did they put the oil pump belt behind the timing chain when did they add the egr cooler

​@karlschauff7989 GM uses an egr cooler on their 2.7 as well

Doesn't the Chevy 2.7 L3B also have c.g.i. block?

@@karlschauff7989 I said this on your other post…. You are spreading bullshit. Those changes happened in 2017 and the engine has proved to be damn near flawless. All the reliability turds keep running their mouth. Toyota runs belts on all their supposed bulletproof engines minus the 5.7.

2.7 GM turbomax = 430 ft-lb torque @ 3,000 rpm's. Ford 2.7 ecoboost = 410 ft-lb torque @ 4250 rpm's. So higher torque @ lower rpm is worse? Doesn't compute.

@@ews360 2,750 RPM for 400 lb-ft peak in the 2.7 ecoboost. You are confusing the torque specs with the 5.0 v8. It does compute

The data I intially found was incorrect. This info was found on the Ford 2024 F-150 webpage states: 2.7 ecoboost = 2015-2016 375 ft-lb @ 3,000 rpm. 2018-2020 400 ft-lb @ 2,750 rpm. 2021+ 400 lb-ft @ 3,000 rpm. So, both GM & Ford make their max torque @ same 3,000 rpm. GM makes 30 ft-lb more torque than Ford. Torque, not horse is needed in towing. So, why does the Chevy (or GMC) "just does not pull as well" w/ 30 more ft-lb of torque? That does not compute.

I've seen 4 chevy 2.7s over 150k miles no issues. Tow up to 8000lbs enclosed trailers with ease. Its been reliable.

The chevy looks 2wd no 4x4 sticker

Surprised you stayed with Chevy after that experience.

@ramfan5149 I had 2 ford's before that, an iron man explorer and then an f 150, I encountered other people who had issues with the same year as my Silverado, my wife wanted dodge, I'm not a fan, so I took a chance with the colorado, we both like it a lot

The 5.3 and the 6.2 are also circa 2014.

fleet maybe?

The same people that buy an F-150 with the naturally aspirated 3.3 V6. That's what the GM 2.7L is meant to compete against.

@@karlschauff7989 The 3.3 is discontinued! The 2.7 is the base engine. What are you a GM salesman or something?

@@karlschauff7989GM 2.7 turbomax (w/ 5 yr 100,000 mile warranty) makes 310 horse / 430 ft-lb torque @ 3,000 rpm. Ford 2.7 ecoboost 325 horse / 410 ft-lb torque @ 4250 rpm. The Ford 3.3 produced 290 horse / w/ a measly non tow rated 265 ft-lb torque. Gotta use data to back the b.s.

Wanted more torque than 5.3 V8 and 2.7 Ecoboost. 2.7 I-4 dual volute Turbomax (w/ 5 yr 100,000 mile drivetrain warranty) makes 310 horse / 430 ft-lb torque @ 3,000 rpm. GM 5.3 V-8 makes 355 horse / 383 ft-lb torque @ 4,100 rpm. Ford 2.7 V-6 Ecoboost makes 325 horse / 400 ft-lb torque @ 3,000 rpm. The old Ford 3.3 was truly a slug - 290 horse / with disappointing 265 ft-lb torque @ 4,000 rpm, absolutely no competition to the turbomax. Glad 3.3 discontinued. Same w/ Ram 3.6 V-6 = 305 horse / 269 ft-lb torque @ 4,800 rpm.

😂

Ford 2.7 twin turbo V-6= 325 horse / 410 ft-lb torque @ 4,250 rpm. GM 2.7 dual volute turbo I-4= 310 horse / 430 ft-lb torque @ 3,000 rpm. Very comparable. One has 5 yr 100,000 drivetrain warranty.

correction - both make peak torque @ 3,000 rpm. GM 430 ft-lb. Ford - 400 ft-lb. That's the difference. Pay no attention number of cylinders or turbos. Dual volute turbomax makes the most torque numbers.

🤡

🤡

You guys don't have a clue about f150's They suck in a wreck Ask me how I know Personal experience

GMs uses an egr cooler on the 2.7 as well

Ford doesn't put the 3.3 engine in the F-150 anymore. The 2.7 is the base engine.

GM Turbomax 310 horse / 430 ft-lb torque @ 3,000 rpm. Ecoboost 325 horse / 400 ft-lb torque @ 3,000 rpm. Very comparable. GM 30 ft-lb more torque, but 15 less horse. Ford 3.3 was an absolute slug - 290 horse, but a terrible naturally aspirated 265 ft-lb torque @ 4,000 rpm. Shitty tow rating, doesn't even compete w/ turbomax.

@@redd7188 But it was when the 2.7T became the base engine. The 3.3 was the base engine until 2024. GM doesn't change engines every single year the way Ford does.

@@jmc6000 I don't see any reference to an EGR or EGR cooler in any documentation on the engine. I also don't see any parts, OEM or aftermarket, for an EGR valve or EGR cooler for the GM 2.7.

the 2.7 is Ford's base engine. What do you want Ben Hardy to do?

GM Turbomax 310 horse/430 ft-lb torque @ 3,000 rpm. Ecoboost 325 horse / 400 ft-lb torque @ 3,000 rpm. The old 4.3 GM (285 horse / 305 ft-lb torque @ 3900 rpm) & Ford 3.3 (290 horse/265 ft-lb torque @ 4,000 rpm) were competitors. While numbers prove comparison, may as well list GM 5.3 - 355 horse / 383 ft-lb torque @ 4,100 rpm. Believe want you want, but facts/data are undisputable.

Thar hurricane is a junk engine

The hurricane is the Ram engine. Not Ford. Ford is the Ecoboost
