It seems that America has made another step towards giving up the “There’s no replacement for displacement” religion. We are talking about full-size pickups with V86 engines here: Ford has recently increased its sales forecast for the 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 F-150 pickup.
According to The Wall Street Journal, the carmaker upped the expected sales for the model from 40 to 45 percent of the range, which means that the turbocharged V6 truck’s sales will reach 100,000 units this years.
The aforementioned source explains that, despite the troubled economy, the Blue Oval’s pickup sales have increased by eight percent this year, mainly based on stealing market share from GM and Chrysler’s RAM.
