Yup and all those pickup engines are hp at high rpms. Slow those engines down to a reasonable speed and they are like the old double breasted Yamaha's all wind and no go. No torque low hill climbing abiliy. They didn't call them hill sniffers for nothing. And yes it may waste a small amount of fuel to run a bigger engine tooling around but when it comes to pulling the big engine shines as it goes pulling the load with little effort while the little engine is being worked to death to do the same job with the same load. You can't make an M pull 6 bottom just because you put a turbocharger on it. And you can run an auger with a 1206 while the M finishes it's job, so you can switch to match load to engine. I was in the ford dealer last spring/winter and the kid was bragging about his puke a boost. I told him there is no replacement for displacement. IF you want to load it like a boxcar and drive it like a racecar you have to have the engine to do it. Lawnmower engines will not cut it.
