Does ford have any plans of putting the Eco boost engine in the Expedition? If not Im thinking of looking at the Volkswagen Taurago/whatever with the TDI diesel engine.

Uncle just got an ecoboost in a 150 so far he loves it. He traded off a 2500 hemi and says its so much more powerful than the hemi its sad. (He won't own a diesel because when he was in highshool my grandma had an oldsmobile car with a diesel and it was his job to go out in the cold and either it and charge the batteries) He currently has vet bed, tool box and pulls a cattle alley/shoot alot.
I owned a VW diesel Jetta for a while. It was 97 and hard to get certain parts for and didnt get good milage at all if you drove it hard. It reminded me of driving a kubota car. Im sure the new ones are better for both and more like driving a gaser.
Ill stick to repowering old cars with 5.9/3.9s and high gears. I think I can figure out how to work both of them.
