My Ecoboost windshield wipers aren't working properly, WTH? 
I knew I shouldn't have bought a truck with these new tech turbo thingys on it.

I voted yes. But I'd also vote for a ban on the obligitory "_____ club". Whether its Platnium, FX4, or whatever. Good lord I get tired of seeing that sh_t. Ask for a sub forum if all you care about is whatever specific level of 150 you have and not 2009 and up 150's in general.

Yes, get rid of ALL the mileage threads. You bought a truck, not a pink bicycle with pink streamers off the handlebars. Please understand that 16mpg is a perfectly acceptable number for a truck with 420 ft lbs of low end torque, v6 or not. Grow a pair.
But if we also got rid of the "Let's see your tuxedo black 2011 FX4 Ecoboost with only the luxury package, sunroof, remote start and max tow with XD Monster rims and 275/65/R18 Trail Grapplers, 2" Autospring level and make sure the truck has the driver's window rolled 1/2 way down and a Mini-tree black ice air freshener is hanging from the 12v plug cap on the right hand side vent tower trim piece on the dash. Your radio better be set on Sirius 59 and set to 4 ticks of volume please". Ok...maybe that's an exaggeration but I've seen requests not too far off from that, haha!

Ok. Maybe not bans, maybe using a central thread for all fuel mileage concerns should be an option, and whatever new gas mileage thread concerning poor/good mileage is made should be merged into that thread. and put it as a sticky so I don't see it on my iPhone app

I haven't been here that long but every day there is a new one. Does anyone search first?

Because then we would have to ban 5.0 "I love the sound of a V8" threads.
Before long, we'll be un-freezing Sylvester Stallone so he can bail us out of the mess we created for ourselves.
Bzzzt - you have been fined one credit for violation of the F150Forum EcoBoost Mileage Morality Statute.
