These look like my 2011 5.0 numbers... All subjective of course.

Per Ford the weight savings alone with worth 1 mpg per every 400lbs

So on a 2015 with 700lbs loss in weight the mpg will be near 2 mpg better

So even the 3.5L Eco will have better MPG numbers for the 2015 model year

A fair amount more yet with the 2.7L Eco

Lighter weight and better efficiency

A little birdie told me the 4x2 trucks with a 2.7 will be minimum 26 highway . .

And yes if driven right competition for the Dodge diesel 1500

Numbers should be revealed on November 5th I am told.

Thats about all the hints I can give . .

I never trust those tests. My highway mpg on my 2010 scab 4x4 4.6l 2v is 21 mpg, your telling me less weight and a smaller engine gets only .5mpg better.

Told the 2.7 is rated for anything less than 24mpg hwy I'll be shocked and it will have been a waste of Ford's R&D.

Motor Trend averaged 14.4 when they tested the ecoboost in 2012. I wouldn't worry too much about their low numbers. They drive them hard
