I recieved my ecoboost in September, already racked up 11,000 miles. I have the 3.73, 4 X 4, 6.5' bed, with the max tow package. Arround town i average 16mpg. The only long trip i took without a load was 300 miles one way @ 19.5mpg. I have a 32' bumper pull camper, figured the weight of camper and contents to be arround 9,500lbs, pull it with no problem, except only gets 9mpg. If you are gonna do lots of towing i would get the ecoboost, it is a beast. The turbo lag is very minimal but noticeable if you know what to look for. If just ocasional towing get the 5.0. eather way you will get a truck that you are going to love to drive.
Another downfall is with the ecoboost i could only order a 26gal tank not the 36 like I wanted.
