Got one and I love it. Haven't towed heavy with it but it has more torque and tow than the V8 supposedly. I always had the V8s. If your looking new check out alone Star Ford in Texas. I got my 2014 as a new leftover. After having it shipped here I still saved over 4K. The dealers around here wouldn't come close to their price. Good gas mileage and a good pickup with the little twin turbos

Thanks. It absolutely has more towing capacity than the V8.

I had the 2000 F150 4-door, V8 pickup, and before that the Ranger crew cab. Was a great around town truck and with kids on trips, but no comparison to my 2012, F150 V6 Crewcab (suicide doors). Haven't towed anything, but hauled a lot. The thing is great. Great pickup, pretty good MPG. I've done round trips NJ to the Cape and back on one tank of gas. Best vehicle I ever owned, by far.
