I've been told the new truck will lose 700-750lbs and gain approximately 3mpg. Performance will also improve with the loss in weight. I can't confirm a V8 ecoboost, although that would be one wicked powertrain. If you haven't driven an ecoboost yet, you owe it to yourself.

Oh boy! More new machines to have to buy and more repair procedure training to send employees to!
UGGHH! Man, those are gonna be some soft, unrepairable bedsides and doors!..And expensive!
All bs aside, I drove a customer's EcoBoost the other day and, although I've driven GM vehicles all my life, my next one will likely be an EcoBoost!
