Titan XD- Gas...

Greetings,

Here is an article on the Gas Titan XD from TFL.

Key part is that the Gas version will have about 500 lbs more payload.

And the motor is all aluminum alloy...

Thanks!

    With that payload it will be comparable to the F150 with HD Payload and 3.5L Ecoboost. Except a lot heavier, for better or worse. Wonder how the mileage will compare?


    It should be pretty comparable. Missed the part about it being CC only.

    I did notice that they don't have to list MPG estimates because of the weight class the truck is in. I suppose that means that we will see about the MPG once the Trucks are on the lots...

    It does have GDI so that will help some..I wonder if the injectors will be noisy like the GDI injectors were on my Kia. Lol.

    No MDS or anything like that that cuts four of the cylinders off at highway speed that I can tell.

    Should be pretty comparable to a 3/4 ton big 3 on the MPG and power front. I would guesstimate 11-14 mixed depending on the driver.

    15-16 mpg on the highway

    With the occasional guy who posts that he gets 17 towing a 35 ft camper.

    I really hope that the transmission shifting strategy is dialed in.

    Thanks!
