Just hope the 3.5 lives up to its billing. If it can tow 9000 lbs and get in the ballpark of 23-25 mpg all day long it will be pretty desirable. The only drawback would be the sound not being a V8. V10s never sounded any good either and they made good numbers. Just worried about the ecoboost holding up after prolonged extreme towing.
