Default Canadian 5.0 numbers..

Tired of trying to convert to mpg when all my gauges are in km-litre..What kind of mileage are you fellow Canadians getting on the new 2011 5.0L. I am getting about 17kml towing a 6000 boat highway and about 14kml when driving around city,,no boat..) switched from long time Tundra owner to F150 loving it so far 6000kms..Cheers

Try this.

Looks like the 5.0 is about 1-2 l/100km better than my 5.4.

If you're getting the same in-town as you are on the highway, your in-town driving must consist of long stretches with no stops.
