I don't need any misinformation about GM 5.3's... I've owned 3 of them over the years. The last was an 08 GMC. It got slightly worse mileage than my eco, even though it was 600 lb lighter, car mirrors, several inches shorter and couldn't handle a trailer.
The computer on the eco is always within 3% while the GM's were always optimistic by up to 8%.

Ford is not the only brand that has made improvements in the last seven years. Compare new with new, if you want any kind of validity to your criticism.
