I've owned several Chrysler products as well as Ford products. I've never had any problem achieving either's rated fuel mileage. I easily get 14 city and 17+ interstate with my 5.4L F250 that the F150 was rated for. Even my Prius easily gives it's EPA rated 48mpg highway and 51mpg city. On the other hand, I can easily achieve much less than EPA rated fuel mileage on any vehicle with short trips in cold weather or excessive heavy pedal stop and go city or excessive speed on the interstate. I wouldn't refrain from buying a vehicle based on the likes or dislikes of the Lexus crowd. Damn the egg on the gas pedal trick. Put it on the brake pedal and you'll get EPA rated fuel mileage on any vehicle.

Hahaha I have yet to see ANY of the 20+ gasser trucks I've had get the epa est mileage. Cept maybe downhill with a tailwind. Lol
You must be that guy doing 53 mph down the freeway in the middle lane drafting a semi truck!

Not. I set cruise on 72-74mph most of the time. I have a friend/co-worker who can't hold a steady cruise. His right foot is on and off the gas constantly as he talks endlessly while he drives. He gets lousy mileage no matter what he drives. My guess is you're one of those.
