Idk why we talk about mpg in trucks anyways. We buy them to do work. At least that's why I did.

I think Ford as well as all the other manufacturers have got a little out of hand on what a 1/2ton can tow and haul safely. Im sure we can all pull a lot in EB and 6.2 11300 for mine it is rated at 9600lbs but like I said Im old school and if I am going to tow these type of weights on a consistent basis then Im getting a3/4ton. The only thing I can say to the OP is there is no way in hell your getting 26mpg. The EB is the most fuel efficient engine for has ever put in a 1/2ton and they would be hard pressed to get that milleage. Just my two cents. And as someone else stated there are *****holes in every make and model on the road.
