What do you tow? Unless you tow a ton, a dually just doesn't make sense.

One of my coworkers traded in his ecobost F150 for a Raptor a few months back.

I'm intrigued by the Ecoboost, but I'm just not sure I'd trust it this early in it's evolution. It's a new thing for Ford and I'm just not sure how that will translate in terms of long-term reliability.

Sounds to me like you just have to figure out what you want. You're all over the place. You're looking at three very different vehicles. Figure out what's most important to you, then you've made your decision. Gas mileage, fun, or pulling?
