2013 Ecoboost and MPG

Really? No. I liked the features and had the money to pay for it, unlike someone else mr XLT. I just expected more. Didnt your parents teach you not to assume? Condescending remarks are not welcomed by me very much.

Update! Temperature folks, temperature. Temp plays a HUGE role in mpgs on a turbo charged vehicle. When the temp starts dropping below 40f, combined with winter blend fuel, your mpgs suffer. I just ran my 2013 egobust at 45f and getting 19 hwy and 15.5 city so temp is the problem. 51f is the most efficient temp to run under.

I don't really have any major issues with my Sync MFT. It's certainly not perfect but, all in all, it seems to be a pretty good setup. In my opinion, it's much better than the system in my wife's 2012 4Runner. Sound quality seems decent to me with the sub, and I've installed a number of custom systems in several vehicles so I've got a pretty good reference. I suppose my biggest issue has been with the built in Nav, since the interface doesn't seem to be as smooth as a Garmin or Google Maps on the iPhone.
Since the above is off topic from this thread, I've noticed a slight increase in mileage since our temps came up a bit. I also filled up with ethanol free fuel from a local station and achieved another noticeable increase in mileage. Mileage is now 16.5 mpg on my normal route to work as opposed to 14-14.5 during the colder periods.

I have had my 2013 SCrew FX4 for a couple of weeks now. I'm getting an avg. of just over 18 MPG in mixed city/highway....... driving very carefully. I have less than 1,000 miles on the truck....so I'm hoping it will improve some over time. I'm fairly pleased now....but if the MPG goes higher that would be great.

TSB 12-11-15 was performed on my 2013 Ecoboost F150 Platinum. Had check engine light come on. Dealer put new flash on computer and replaced the left cat and the intercooler. I think he replaced a coil when I had it in for the diagnostics but had to order the cat and the intercooler. Got them on this morning. This truck was made in January in Detroit. I thought the '13s had the new intercooler but maybe Ford had a revision??

The supposed change over with the latest shield,parts,CAC and stuff was a 9/18/12. So your Jan 13 build date should have already had the most recent stuff. What the heck are they replacing it with..Did you check your part#'s before and after to see what they replaced your CAC with?

Do you know the difference between condescending and assuming? Just curious, brah.
