Default Raptor Mileage?

I saw on the Ford website that these trucks are supposed to be getting 11/13 as their mileage. Are these low numbers really accurate? Doesn't the 6.2L on a regular F-150 get almost 20 highway?

I doubt that...its a 6.2L motor...who cares what it gets, if your buying the big motor your not worried about gas milage. I would say 11/13 would be close...but not If I were driving it...lol It would be more like 8/10.

lol I understand it's not going to be the most fuel efficient thing out there but the 6.2L is rated at 13/18 for a 4X2 and 12/16 for a 4X4. I just thought the Raptor would be a little closer to those numbers...

I believe the Raptor comes with taller tires than the regular f150's
