I was just looking at your review of the 1.5L Ecoboost, and I realise that mine has integrated exhausts (a la the Titanium). It also came with sunroof and leather seats, so National is clearly not just buying base models and this makes me really happy!
I'm in the same car now - very nicely loaded, brand new and has that new car smell - but this is my second Ecoboost disaster after a new Escape with Ecoboost that delivered worse gas mileage than a Bentley! I think the only thing being boosted is the actual gas consumption.

Ford is already facing lawsuits over their hybrid fraud - maybe Ecoboost needs a closer look too.
