They said it's a typo. That link I posted has Ford's Director of Regional Communications saying it's a typo and will be corrected.

I suspect it has propagated itself into many places and they have no fixed all of them yet.

You could call Ford, or communicate via email or social media if you want them to fix it for peace of mind.

Why carry an extra 80+lb around if yo do not need it...(that would be the difference in fuel weight, not the tank, probably 5lb difference in tank weight)

Sorry I did not read the artical until after I posted. That is good information to know. Thank you for doing the research to find that out for all of us.

There's so much confusion... Which one is correct?

33 or 36?

I asked a simple question and got sarcasm... Typical for some on this forum.

It would have been just as easy to type 36 as 49.

Thanks for replying to my original question.

Much appreciated.

It's 36, but they only let you fill it to 33.
