    Since the turbo V6 has a water to air intercooler, you guys should hook up a phone type OBD2 scanner (Blue Driver) that shows LIVE DATA so we can see how hot the intake charge gets during the Ike Gauntlet Tow Test? Water to air intercoolers tend to not be that efficient for continuous loads unless they were able to fit a really large heat exchanger for it. It would be nice to see if what Toyota installed is BIG enough to keep the intake cooler without a front mount intercooler.

    Surface area affects aerodynamics and those aluminum siding panels have a lot of surface area. Had one and now have a much larger smooth fiberglass sided trailer. Much better on a wind day. That said the aerodynamics aren’t going to matter much until highways speeds. I would guess the Airstream weighs a bit more. As a Toyota fan though it’s pretty disappointing a major international corporation couldn’t figure out how to use identical trailers for this.

    Disagree! In 2017 I needed a truck to tow a travel trailer. I bought the truck first. Being a loyal Toyota fan I was ready to buy a Tundra but my son convinced me to at least look at a Ford F-150 Eco Boost. I test drove the Tundra first and then the Ford. The Ford was clearly more modern, comfortable and capable so I took a chance and bought the Ford. The Ford is now four years old with 48,000 miles on it with 10,000 miles towing a 2019 Lance 1685 trailer that weighs 5,500 pounds fully loaded. The 3.5 twin turbo has proven to be powerful, reliable and very fuel efficient. When towing I get 14 mpg on level ground at 55 mph. When not towing I get between 22 to 27 mpg on the highway (partly because I drive like an old man because I am an old man). I also own a 2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser that might last forever. If I were to buy a truck today it would be hard to choose between the Ford and Toyota but I would definitely prefer a small twin turbo over a large non-turbo V8.

When setting up a comp test, you must be totally transparent. Length and trailer shape are every bit as important to how a trailer tows, as is tongue weight. I have owned 5000 lb trailers that tow like trailers weighing 7000 lb because of shape and balance. It is a horribly designed comp test. I would even call it dishonest, and blatantly so.

    Problem wasn’t just mpgs. It was EPA. This new era of gassers in trucks now need direct and multi port injection to cut particulate emissions, as well as 4 ...yes 4 catalytic converters. Also needed are EGR coolers (21 F150s have theirs right up front on passenger side where you can see and access it) ...that’s to reduce NOX and other gasses. CO2 is now looked at as the enemy as well...So, in a nutshell, the v8 in its current form would be nothing short of, well, nothing like it was-to meet all the new EPA requirements for gas engines. So they couldn’t just throw one in hooked to a 10-spd and call it a day.

By the 2010s cars were already 99% less wasteful and polluting than cars in the 1960s. That was just pure developments in technology and customers wanting more efficient engines. Now the EPA are imposing their regulations and it's destroying these cars, and there are few improvements over old standards (and certainly no improvements in pollution reduction or environmental damage with EVs).

    @Steven Strain i completely agree that the main reason manufacturers are going to smaller turbo engines is for cost savings. In the short term the V6 might be as reliable as the V8 but that smaller engine getting pushed harder by turbos will not last half as long as the V8. The turbos themselves are not likely to last the lifetime of the engine will probably need replacement 200-250k miles costing $5-10k to replace. Add to all of this that when you work smaller turbod engines hard they get worse fuel economy than their similarly powered NA engine. Though it is cheaper for manufacturers to make, I feel we are receiving a far inferior product. There is no such thing as a free lunch.

    um...shape and drag coefficient alone between the contoured airstream and the wind sail innsbruck would easily translate to differences in towing characteristics...i have never pulled an airstream but just looking at its design makes it easy to see hwo much less resistance it will cause..i know , wasnt your test...either way your show is great, thanks for making it

    They were only 1 second faster with the new truck with 2 missing cylinders and turbos which will undoubtedly fail sooner than later especially being called upon continuously to get that heavy beast moving and keep it moving...they really should have left the V8 as an option as Ford has done with the Coyote 5.0L V8 in the F150's. If the mall cruiser crowd wants a lawnmower engine let them buy it, but the rest of us who actually use our trucks for work purposes towing/hauling all the time want the reliability and durability of a V8.

    I personally still like v8s I feel like they can be pushed harder and you can always add a supercharger. I do really like ford’s turbo v6 just because of how fast it is and the noises it makes. I hate the hybrid trucks. Daily driving it’s fine, but towing, you loose your electric ability and the engine is too underpowered. Not to mention replacing battery packs sounds like a nightmare.

    I really like the new hybrid engines combining the best of both worlds in terms of ICE and electrification, I'm just curious of the weight difference between traditional ICE and the hybrid setups. Even if a V6 hybrid weighs the same as a traditional V8 or even slightly more you're still getting better MPG with the hybrid and in most cases more power than the V8 counterpart so the only thing you lose is the rumble of the V8.

    That’s a very good point. I’m not a fan of turbo V6s - and would consider the hybrid purely for the enormous instant-on torque and elimination of turbo lag. Ford’s eco boost (non-hybrid) also got slightly worse mpg towing vs. their 5.0L / 10spd. TFL has to run that comparison.

    The F-150 PowerBoost and Tundra hybrid have the same hybrid motor-generator power (35 kW in motor mode), but both have a small battery typical of non-plug-in hybrids (less than 2 kWh) and so may be limited in regenerative braking by battery charging power allowed.

I still occasionally miss that growl but then I hook a trailer up and press the fast pedal. That growl doesn't make it pull harder or accelerate faster. Plus there is better fuel economy once the new wears off that acceleration.
