I believe that 29 IMP mpg is for the 3.7l v6. Either way I don't think the ecoboost will get that. I would say more closer to 24-26 IMP MPG.

For those 'mericans' that can't convert (READ:Not saying all Americans)... go get an education, maybe google can help, if you don't or can't get an education. Also '.com' does not mean US only.. its just a top level domain which is mostly consisted of American people/companies owning them. You know just like .ca or .jp there is a .us also. Those are reserved for website catering to those countries. Flame at me all you want. I don't care hahhahahahaa

Since you all love the F-150 truck as much as I do. I figured I would share my MPG experience. I couldn’t be happier! 2012 F-150 Ecoboost Platinum 4x4, 16,500 Odometer, Gear Ratio 3.55 & Shell (V-Power) 93 octane with 10% ethanol.
Add-Ons: Pop & Lock Power Tailgate Lock, Dee Zee Tailgate Assist, EcoBoost Grill Guard, Putco LEDs (Interior and Exterior), Braided stainless steel brake lines, BakFlip-F1 Bed cover, All Fluids AMSOIL (except transmission), AEM Drop-In Filter & Full-Race 3" Exhaust.
Add-Ons NOT Done Yet: 2013 OEM HID Headlight Conversion & Full-Race Intercooler Just went to New Orleans from Houston for Memorial day weekend. Drove a little over 300 miles and got 22 MPG at 70 MPH. On the drive back I got 24 MPG at 60 MPH (Sorry I don't have a pic for this. I forgot to reset my trip computer).
Driving conditions: Some Head Wind, Some Rolling Hills & Some Rough Highway. 30% traffic. Stopped once for bathroom break.
I can't help but think what kind of mileage I would of gotten without 10% ethanol. I am thinking 10% better? If so, without the mixed 10% ethanol I should get 24 MPG at 70 MPH and 26 MPG at 60 MPH. I am very happy! ;-)

I have a 2013 FX4 EB 3.73 with about 1100 miles on it...I'm almost all city driving so far and I'm sitting around 13 mpg (hand calculated). Considering the EPA says 15 city I'm pretty happy with 13 with only 1100 miles. Ready to see what it does on a long highway trip.
