INCREDIBLY happy with this beast - looks incredible, average 21-22 mpg on hwy trips and have achieved a best of 24.4 mpg on a 150 mile trip. Stock, the power is GREAT - after Mike and his 5-Star 93 octane "G'et it" tune = OMG!!!!
Couldn't ask for much more!

2011 Eco 3.73 with 11,000 miles.
My first Ford and couldn't be happier. Owned a Duramax prior but this truck really gets good mpg and has a much lower cost of ownership over diesel. It tows when I need it too and still gets 17 mpg when empty. I hate all the trolls that bash this engine. So far it's lived up to its name and they can suck it.

Very un happy. Truck has had issues with power loss on several occasions, ford's latest fix is not effective. Southeast regional customer service rep says to be patient while hopefully the next attempt at a fix for the defect will work. Fix supposed to be available late 4th quarter. Power loss started at 1200 miles and conntinues at 6000 miles. Truck is a lemon.

Very Happy!! 26k and no problems. Can reach 20-21mpg highway and 16-17 around town. Pulls like a dream. I will buy another EB F-150. I was close to considering a Diesel and happy with the EB for my pulling needs. MPG are not great towing but that is to be expected. I know we all know it has twin turbos and they get thirsty to make the power. On the flip side I grin when this little 6er pulls up grades and never downshifts. My past 3 F150 where shifting and revving to the moon to pull the same trailers I have now.

TWICE as HAPPY. I had a 2011 EB XLT for 15000 miles...traded in for a 2012 EB Lariat 4x4 at 5800 miles now. No problems with either truck. I can get better than advertised EPA MPG when I want AND I can have a "truckrocket" when I need one.
