I'm getting better mpgs driving my 13 Eco than I did driving my 97 5.4 on the same daily commute. About 3-4 mpg better.
The 97 got a best of 17 mpg on the hwy. My Eco has gotten 21 mpg on the hwy. I avg 17 mpg on my daily commute now compared to 13-14 mpg with the 97.
We have no idea how this guy drives his 2.7 eco... ;) I can make my mpg drop a ton too.. But, I still do have fun with the eco and still get those mpg figures.
My 3.5 Eco walks all over that old 5.4 in terms of power and "eco".. :) I'm getting the exact mpg ratings that the window sticker says I'm supposed to be getting, so dunno what's up with that??
But, buy into the hype or not. Buy something else if it makes you feel better... The point is, make up your own mind and not what the internet says...
Good luck!
