I can't think of even a few times I've heard anyone, let alone an internet personality, use the phrase "I was wrong." Integrity is something you don't see much of these days. Videos like this along with more people owning their words and mistakes are what we need right now. Great video.

Scotty was not "wrong", he just got a software update!

I have a 2017 F-150 with the twin turbo 2.7 engine. So far, I have 174,000 miles on it with little to no problems. I normally keep my car/truck for 15 years. Ford says I can change the oil every 15000 miles. Sorry Ford, being old school I change my oil every 5000 miles and Transmission fluid every 50,000. Proper maintenance is the name of the game. I have been using Mobil 1 since 1991. One more thing, this truck has been towing my 7000 lb travel trailer through 44 states since new which accounts for most of my driving. I'm on my 3rd set of tires, 2nd battery and 3rd brake job. Will be doing another anti-freeze change and tires soon. I am a retired Ford tech with 45 years experience, I retired in 2017. For me retirement means camping, fishing and hunting.

Have a 2015 Ecoboost Mustang with 101k miles. Been driving it like a granny since 70k miles and it sounds great. Oil stains on the engine but I change it every 3k.

2015 Mustang with the 3.7 V6 just rolled over 90,000 and still runs like new. Best car I ever had.

Takes a real man to admit he was wrong. It's being human to show imperfection since nobody is perfect. Respect.....

Love the retro reviews Scotty, your wisdom is timeless!

148,500 miles in my 2013 F-150 3.5 Ecoboost. Only mechanical issues I've had is the heater core leaked and had to change the upstream O2 sensor. I use it like a truck and I'm not gentle with it. But it also gets 5k oil changes, 50k tranny changes, 30k diff and transfer case changes, etc.

I have a 2020 Ranger with 2.3 Ecoboost mated to a 10 speed transmission. I love it. Great gas mileage and enough power to tow. The secrete is not to drive by your foot. Just give it a little throttle and keep it there. The transmission will shift smoothly and most efficiently. I get 26 MPG around town and 13 MPG towing a 3500 LB. camper trailer . I installed an OEM catch can for the intercooler condensate.

Modern R&D for the automotive industry is to release to the public as soon as possible and deal with the problems later.

Thank you for showing us the life of a REAL auto mechanic . All real and a what-is!

I recently just found your channel today and boy am I sure happy I did !! Thank you pal 🤝‼️🤘🏽

Scotty in Houston is throwback

he got me with the mustang Eco boost just bought a 2018 and I was scared something was wrong with them that i didnt know about, but scotty got me again with a little education. Thank you scotty!

My wife has this exact color 2015 Mustang GT V8 6 speed. I love it , I love it more than my 2017 Camaro SS that I had

I'm happy with my 2018 F150 with a 3.5L ecoboost. Has direct and port injection.. lots of low end torque. V8 are good too, but with more torque, tuning potential, fuel economy, and towing capacity. The ecoboost is a better choice IMO.

I have a 2017 Honda civic 1.5 turbo charged and I have never had oil dilution. I think it's the fact that I always warm up my car before I drive so the piston rings seat .

From 1984-1986, Ford made the SVO Mustang with a turbocharged 2.3L. My buddy had an '85 and it was bulletproof, got decent fuel economy (when he kept his foot out of it he got around 20 in town and 28 on the highway), and dramatically outhandled the 5.0s due in part to the far superior weight distribution. That engine only had around 200 HP, but the car weighed 4-500 pounds less than the modern one so 0-60 is only a second slower. What's old is new...

You are right, those ecoboost engines are Eco or Boost, but not both at the same time.
