It's a mini 6.7 probably be a safe bet.
Bought an EcoBoost first year, it was good.

No one has asked about DPF deletes and rolling coal yet?

Oh boy! A diesel in a ford f-150. Now lots of guys will be overweight with a sled on a deck.

So the payback is what, 500000km if the the truck survives that long?

Depends if this 30mpg avg is ligit or not, but say it is.

30mpg = 7.84 L/100km
EcoBoost is getting 14ishL/100km

So a rhetorical 6.26L/100km

Say $1.10/l

$6.88 savings per 100km

$6000/$6.88 = 872 X 100
= 87,200km till payback

500,000km/100km x $6.88
= $34,400 savings over the life of the truck.
