Manténgase alejado de Ford. Ninguno de sus productos es duradero.

 

(Google Translation:

Stay away from Ford.  None of their products are durable.)

Here's another perspective on Ford "kwality":

Sorry friend, I think Scotty no habla espanol. Not sure if any moderators do.

Please try using google translate to post in English. Good luck.


Gracias ya lo voy a cambiar

There's no replacement for displacement, as the old moniker goes. Turbocharged, Direct Injection cars are inferior to naturally aspirated cars for longevity. There's a lot less pressure in a naturally aspirated engine. EcoBoost engines don't have a combination of ordinary fuel injection and GDI, as far as I know. You gotta have some from of ordinary fuel injection in order to "wash off" carbon buildup on the intake valves. Toyota has ordinary fuel injection and GDI in the same package now. 3.5L V6s are basically the equivalent of my Ford Ranger, with a turbocharger and Direct Injection. The only things giving you that power boost are the turbo and Direct injection. Without one or the other, that F-150 is and absolute dog. 


Entonces es recomendable un V8 5.0 de 10 o 6 velocidades ?


I don't understand Spanish, lol. I majored in German and have a minor in aerospace engineering.


Hallo, kein Problem. Welches Ford-Modell empfehlen Sie zum Kauf, das über einen langlebigen Ecoboost-V6-Motor aus dem aktuellen und früheren Jahr verfügt?


Using Google Translate, really there's nothing reliable. 6-speed manual transmissions are made in China, the automatics are a joint GM Ford design and they had a bunch of recalls regarding that transmission. Ford really isn't a company to buy from, now.


EcoBoost engines aren't made to last. 5.0 Coyote V8s are in their third generation and they're not well built, either. I don't think they've had recalls, but I don't know for sure.


and those of the first or second generation from 2011 to 2017


I assume the first part of your question got cut off?

Hola María, ¿Qué tipo de coche buscas? Casi nadie en este foro recomendará un motor EcoBoost.


I was reviewing and some say that it is better to buy a 2017 Ford F 150 with a 10-speed 5.0 v8 because it is a reliable engine and it is not such an old truck and others say that the ecoboost is better because it saves more fuel and I don't know which one to buy

If you can take the time to translate in German, you can take the time to translate or write all posts in English.

Even Google translate is not 100% perfect.

In German classes it was obvious if you translated something using Google Translate. "You" has two different meanings, du and sie. One is "you", informally (never used when talking to strangers), and sie, the formal version. They typically don't agree with cases, either. Unless you're fluent in a language, it will only appear you're saying things the correct way.


@justin-shepherd it depends if written sie or Sie (capital letter); "sie" means "she" and "they" and "Sie" is formal version of you ("du" and "ihr"). Google translate still needs some improvement regarding grammary.


I knew that, I guess that was a typo, lol. I had German for like 9 years.


English is easy when it comes to grammary. German, Italian and some other languages I know, are easy when it comes to spelling.

The Google translation provided by moderator @jack62 did a pretty good job and I don't think anyone will have a problem understanding it. Your new post has been merged with the original to keep everything together.


If you understand English, you can watch Scotty's reviews

Bueno, los únicos duraderos que se me ocurren son el 3.5 de la camioneta F150.

 

Translation - Well, the only durable ones I can think of are the 3.5 in the F150 truck.


De que modelo y año ?


Eso me gustaria saber que modelo y año es recomendable comprar

EcoBoost V6s sind unzuverlässig. Der Saugmotoren sind zuverlässig, aber aber nicht von Ford. Umgeht Ford. Mein Deutch ist einbichen rostig. Könten wir Englich sprechen? Diese Wörter sind die Erste zeit 7. Jahren, lol.

Hola Maria,

No soy un tipo Ford. Prefiero mucho Toyota. Pero si Ford es su única opción o su preferencia, estas son las siguientes especificaciones que intentaría encontrar.

Los años que buscaría son: 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020.

2015 y 2016 podrían estar bien, pero fueron los primeros años de esa generación. Para mayor confiabilidad, generalmente es mejor optar por años posteriores de una generación.

El motor que preferiría es:
5.0 V8.

Como segunda opción, tal vez el Cyclone de 3,3 litros. El Cyclone de 3,5 L tuvo un problema con la ubicación de la bomba de agua.

La transmisión que preferiría es:
6 velocidades (6R80)

Manténgase alejado de la transmisión de 10 velocidades. Ford y GM tuvieron grandes problemas con ello.

Hi Maria,

I am not a Ford guy. I much prefer Toyota. But if Ford is your only choice or your preference, these are the following I would specs I would try to find.

The years I would look for are: 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020.

2015, 2016 might be okay, but they were the early year of that generation. For reliability, it is usually better to go with later years of a generation.

The engine I would much prefer is:
5.0 V8.

As a second choice, maybe the 3.3L Cyclone. The 3.5L Cyclone had a problem with the water pump location.

The transmission I would much prefer is:
6 Speed (6R80)

Stay away from the 10 speed transmission. Ford and GM had major problems with it.


Thank .Most of the ones I find are 10 speeds and what problems do you have with the 2017 v8 5.0 10 speeds?
