Since then people have been complaining because with 5.4L and 300hp, the truck is slow, so Ford now has a reflash for the ECU that makes throttle position and pedal position more linear, the result is that people are now saying they have a new truck. They say there is far more power available and are much happier.
I can see this happening with the new Civic's.
