Remember how Ford announced that the 2017 F-150 Raptor would forgo the throaty roar of a V8 for the boosted blast of the car maker's 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6? As it turns out, Ford didn't mean the 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6 that over the last few years has been powering everything from the Taurus SHO to the Lincoln Navigator. Nope, Ford meant a whole new engine. Which happens to have the exact same displacement as the old unit.

We forgive you if you're scratching your head right now, because we are, too.

Like the outgoing engine, Ford says the new 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6 makes exactly one horsepower for every day of the average calendar year: 365. But twist has been cranked up by 30 lb–ft, bringing the total output up to 450 torques. That's enough to push it well past the figures for the Ram 1500 and Tundra, but not quite enough to knock the 6.2-liter V8-powered Silverado from the top of of the half-ton pickup torque heap.
