Default 2011 f 150 3:55 rear 2 wheel dr

Have 41000+ miles. Highway mostly. 65+ mph average. 21-22. Best mileage in Florida, not certain why, at 75+ crossing to Miami a steady 26+. Odd but true. City driving 15+, mid Atlantic area. Great truck my previous tundra and frontier truck were always under18 on the highways.

A good economy tune can as well as the addition of the RX system that will correct the PCV flaw allowing all the gunk to enter the combustion process together would both be beneficial..

Give the sales pitch a rest. It passed up old and it's getting stale.

Why no vendor status?

Because like he said, the imports aren't prone to the issues our lowly American vehicles are. At all.

Oh wait.....

I would suggest you all ignore each other. We have that option on the forum. Its getting time to start handing time outs.

Because we dont sell anything here....we were asked in to do technical support for the supporting vendors that do, EcoBoostPowerParts, MAKPerformance, Livernoise, etc.

If we were here selling that would be a different matter.

Hi Nasty, if you read my threads there i ton of technical data I contribute on all subjects related to all models of Ford truck.....this has nothing to do with feeding my family....if it did I would be selling and not spending so much time on all matter of helping those members with issues.

Some good tech contributions are welcome I'm sure for all, but as I am not here attacking you or anyone else, I am puzzled how you feel I have warranted the fight your picking. This is a great forum, it is one of the largest, and tons join to learn and look for help and assistance. If it is an area I am not an authority on I don't even jump in to a thread and defer to those that are.

The subject of the thread is MPG on the ecoboost, so my reply was an accurate one (I dont tune, I dont make a living installing parts, tuning, etc. I am an automotive engineer that has been involved with the industry for over 40 years. If there is something you wish to buy, then contact one of the supporting vendors and support them. It is their support here that makes this forum possible, and without them we would not have this).
