    Spying: Excuse Me, But Does That F-150 Have A Diesel?

      A Diesel F-150. Wait, What?

    Ford is looking to cover a number of bases when it comes to F-150. They have their EcoBoost engines and we know a hybrid is coming in 2020. But there could be a diesel engine as well.

     

    New spy shots show a mostly standard F-150 with a camouflaged bed and an interesting exhaust tip. The spy photographer also noticed the distinct sound of a diesel engine, thus leading to the conclusion that Ford is considering a diesel option.

     

    But what engine? Your first guess might be the 3.2 PowerStoke five-cylinder diesel engine, but according Left Lane News, it's a 3.0L turbodiesel V6 codenamed Lion. This engine is actually the same one you'll find under the hood of the upcoming Range Rover and Range Rover Sport Td6. Power for those models is rated at 254 horsepower and 440 pound-feet of torque.

     

    Now Left Lane says we could see this introduced in the second half of 2016. We'll be watching.

    • Hence why we should and must celebrate Remembrance Day for British Commonwealth countries and Veterans Day for Americans.   Lest We Forget.  The eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month. 
    • Yes, it does, but we seem to have many Apple users here and they tend to be at the high end of tech prices. I agree if anyone is thinking of upgrading TV, Computer, Tablet, Cell Phones, etc. It is better now than to be hit with crazy tariffs due to an idiot that does not understand how tariffs work and how it will exasperate inflation.
