Just got my 2010 with 5.4L. I'm looking for whatever is the best to improve MPG. Wouldn't mind a little extra get up either. I've never really had a new truck so this is new to me. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Even though they claim MPG increase, you will not gain that much. I am seeing 1mpg to the good but the truck runs soo good that it's hard to baby it.

OK. Thanks. But I guess if you can increase performance and not decrease your MPG. Then why wouldn't you? Nothing to lose. I think ill order me the Edge.

Hey all,

Double post I did not see this one sorry.

I have just tuned my 2003 5.4 Expy Eddy Bauer for better fuel economy (bit more "spirited" to drive as well). Not sure where the numbers should be as I just bought the Monster in February but according to the computer I am averaging about 20mpg of 11L/100kms let me know how those number stack up.

Here is a link to a vid i shot on my BB going home the comp was metric sorry..will do a MPG tonight.

im going to go out on a limb and say its a "favorite" because it comes with a cool dash mount. Unless you go with a gryphon, I wouldnt touch the generic tune with a 10ft pole.

Exactly, $600 for cool color digital gauges! Nope, I like my custom tunes that work very well and it was half the cost!
