Yep! This, by far, is the best vehicle I've ever owned. Tons of room for road trips, great styling, plenty of tech and amenities, and the EB with AWD makes this a lot of fun to drive. The gas mileage sucks, but hey, it's a small tradeoff. It's no Mustang but the torque was a lot of fun last time we went to the mountains.

Our mileage climbed as we drove it. Was getting 17-18 when new but now at 16,000 miles we get around 22-23. Not as good as our 2010 N/A 3.5 but the tradeoff for power was well worth it.

I've tracked over 10,000 miles and 51 fuel-ups. My average is 19.4 MPG with my best being 22.4 MPG (100% interstate, 70+ MPH). We were actually looking at getting an F150 as our DD anyway, so the fuel mileage doesn't shock me too much. We have the tow package, can seat two more people, have AWD, and we're getting the same power...so I'd say it's a net positive over an F150.

That sounds about right. I can't think of a better all around family car. We absolutely love ours.

In no particular order,

Dads Rides: 94 F150, Reg Cab (sold to my uncle), 96 Bronco (sold to friend), 2007 F150 Screw (sold), 2004 F250 KR Screw Diesel 4x4 (sold)
2010 F150 Screw KR 4x2, 2007 Expedition (stepmom-mobile), Explorer of some sort (stepsisters)

Mine: 1988 Bronco II 4x2, traded for 2003 Ranger Ext Cab, traded THAT for an Acura. Bought my wife a 2007 f150 4x4 Scab (traded for a baby friendly pathfinder), traded my Acura for a 2011 F150 XLT Screw 4x4.
