Ford works harder than anyone at gaming the EPA fuel economy numbers by using tall gearing on it trucks and SUV's. Don't think for a second that these represent real world driving performance much less performance or fuel economy when hauling a load or towing. Anyone who buys either of these trucks for towing should be sure to get the 3.73 gears.
The 2015 Ford F-150 truck is in a class by itself with the 700 lb. weight reduction that along with some other modifications has resulted in a 1/2 ton pickup truck with a payload of as much as 3300 lbs. with the optional 18" wheels.
