Default 2.7 Ecoboost?

Missed the boat on a low mile trade-in 5.0, but a few 2.7 with what I want are kicking around.
How many miles do you have on it? What is your average mpg?

Have you had any issues with the engine or transmission?

I am a life long GMC owner that is making the switch - love the 2015+ F150.

37,xxx miles on my 2015. No problems either. My lifetime average mpg is 22, mostly mixed driving.

There is an issue with 2.7 ecoboost engines built in early 2016. I'm someone on here will chime in on that problem.

Almost 22,000 on my '16, and averaging 17.8 (although I think my speedometer/odometer is off by a few mph because of the bigger tire I am running). Not the MPG I was expecting, but it is what it is.

I'm only at 1500 miles, but it's flawless so far. 19.5MPG avg over entire 1500 miles, about 90% city driving. Vehicle stats are in my sig.

33k trouble free miles on my 2015 2.7 SCrew 4x4. I'm averaging 20 MPG lifetime for about 50/50 city and highway. Right about what was advertised.

I had a loaner 2.7 for a month while my truck was getting the TSB for frozen door latches. Once you go north of 70mph the fuel economy drops like lead out of a plane. If you drive slow you'll probably do better than sticker. If you have a heavy foot you'll be disappointed.

I have the XLT screw 4x4 with the 2.7 eco. Had the privilege of turning over 30k miles the other day while winding my way along a forest service road in the North Cascades on a nice day. No issues so far. Computer says I'm getting an average of 22.2mpg, but it's probably around 20mpg.

About 14k on my 2WD XLT Sport SCrew.
Fuelly tracking showing 18.3MPG, but I was towing a sail of a cargo trailer with some regularity for a couple months, so that skewed it a bit.
Last 2 tanks were 20.6 & 20.2 MPG.

No drivetrain issues here. Has no problem towing our loaded cargo trailer (est 4k lbs), and towed a Honda Civic on a tow dolly from Houston TX to Albuquerque NM with no problem.
