2013. The speakers were junk. Replaced them with better ones.
The mileage is crazy. I do 65mph. I don't care if it takes me an extra ten minutes to get somewhere. I do 65 and don't worry about LEOs that are lurking around the freeways.
I get 25mpg or better (as high as 28.3 over a 100 mile trip) every time I'm on the freeway. 18 to 20 in town. I'll go faster on longer trips, San Diego to San Fran and back but it'll still break 20mpg at 80mph.
One year old with 46,000 miles. But it has helped grow my business by 600% from two years ago so no complaints.
Not one issue or problem with the truck except for the speakers.

I *love* my '13 EcoBeast! This thing runs like a raped ape; there's nothing like stomping on it going 60 and getting to 90+ in what seems like a couple of seconds ...

Its hard to resist. Your cruising at about 70, feels like its effortless, you lay on it a little and away you go! I got mine last month, its a 2011, had 29k on her. At first I thought, oh sheet, what if its been returned because of some issue? Truck runs like its got all the power in the world, smooth as glass. I know sounds like a lot of shine don't it? But its how it is. I love it. Good decision buying my first Ford F150! I try real hard not to show off. Getting too old for it. Ha ha ha.

Over 8 grand on the mileage. Running an average of 18.9 with A/C. Just started getting cool here and for a very few trips I have found very little if any change in mileage with A/C off. Perhaps a .2 or .3 at the most. If you stay under 65 and don't have too many hills your in the low 20's. If you put your foot in it often or do a lot of steep hill driving I see something in the high 16's. My 2010 Ram R/T with da Hemi got about 14.5 MPG regardless of A/C how hard I drove it or how easy I drove it. And of course that was premium grade thank you very much!!!

So many people post about the V8 sound being their major reason for not having a V6.
I like the sound of a Harley, a V8, a lady moaning with delight and many more.
Does not mean that I cannot enjoy the sound of my bicycle, my Ecoboost or my wife without being unfaithful!

I have had a 2012 FX4 Silver w appearance pkg. for a little over a year now. 40000 miles almost exactly. I get oil changed at dealership every 5k. (It is literally $20 out the door at my dealer!)
I have installed the autospring 2" leveling kit, sits dead level now. I also replaced those Pirelli tires at about 28-29k, Cooper Discoverer AT3 that are awesome! Somewhat aggressive look, and very quiet on the road. (I BELIEVE they are 265/70!) They are a bit taller than stock, maybe an inch or so?
I added a bed rug and bakflip F1, bought both from Craigslist for total of $580 (new about 1100 and 400ish)
I have had literally NO issues with the engine, CAC etc. I do a lot of city driving, and a lot of idling, sitting in front of homes I build while emailing, calling etc. My average mileage is pretty low due to this, but on the highway, cruising 65 I get easily in the 22-23 mpg range. Power, refinement, looks, I really like this truck!
No regrets at all.
