:) Hi, yes Ford recommends premium fuel for loaded or towing, but it's not required. My truck went cross country, over 13,000 miles while towing my 6,000 lb. trailer and never once had premium in the tank. Do the test again with regular in the tank and show us if it's better or worse. Will it beat the Dodge Ecodiesel? No; We already knew that. Will this video convince me to buy a Dodge or Ford 1500/150 Diesel. Hell no!
If I were purchasing a new 1/2 ton truck today it would no doubt be a gas truck since the performance is so much better over the diesel and getting over 20mpg is very respectful.
If you want maximum fuel economy in a gas truck get a F150 2.7 EB.
