ASAP! EcoBoost. Yes or no?

I have a friend that has a F-150 with the EcoBoost. And he loves it. I am thinking about buying a Ford Fusion with either the 1.5 EcoBoost or the 2.5 without. I hope to keep the car for about 200,000 miles. What are the Pro's and Con's as for one over the other? What is the lifetime of an EcoBoost?
Now the big question. What would you do? Thanks in advance!:face-icon-small-ton

Big Car + Big Engine. NO eCVT ever or the gimmicky powertrains. Does it come in a 174"?
 
i have the 2.0 eco in a 2014 escape fwd for a work rig and it does well for what it is 24 mpg round town and no freeway time on it. the little guy will light them up.:face-icon-small-blu would do it again for sure. i also have a 3.5 eco in a 2013 taurus and that thing rippps!!
 
I have a 2013 Fusion with the 1.6 and have just over 65k on it. I love the eco so smooth on the highway, never shifts with the cruise set on 75mph. I get 28-32mpg when the weather is below 40F and above that it gets 30-36mpg. Depends on the wind
