- Why why why do they continue to use the ugliest wheel in automotive history for the HDPP? You can't tell me no one makes an aluminum wheel that's rated as good or better than that 70s style wheel they keep using! Or at least use a better looking steel wheel. Yuck!
- Good looking Ram clone.
Check for yourself. For 2019, around 500,000 miles recorded, and an average MPG of 15.7 for a 3.5 EcoBoost.
Ok, fuelly is talking average. Glad I am not average.
They also have my 2018 Ford Escape @ avg. 25-26. I guess I am not average, as I get 29.
Both have eco boost and I have a lighter foot than most.- i like it
- Love it...

Per Fuelly a 2019 3.5EB F150 averages 15.32 mpg, while a 2019 6.2 F250 averages 11.37. If you drive 12,000 miles a year with gas at $2.50/gal, that's a difference of $680/yr or $56/mo. If that's a deal breaker pulling a camper around may not be a very wise hobby from a financial standpoint.
Might want to recheck the EB avg MPG. I've had two and both were 18 MPG easy avg, the 2018 is closer to 19MPG

My 2019 Expedition MAX has averaged 15.68 since I purchased it last August. I record every fill up, and most of those are at the same gas station.

They did, it is called a F250/F350!
The bad thing about that are the gas engine options if you only need to use the max payload or tow rating just a few times a year. It would suck to have to go from 17-18 mpg combined in a 3.5L Ecoboost to 12-14 mpg combined in a 7.3L all year round just to tow 10-11k a few times a year. If someone towed/hauled that amount of weight several times a year then I can see the need for a F250/350, but not for once or twice a year like many of the guys at my summer RV park do.

True, but I think I would want to be put out of my misery if I had to drive a F250 6.2L versus an 3.5 Ecoboost towing 10k or even as a daily. I like the Ecoboost for the same reason I like diesels, low end torque and plenty of it.
I agree... I would much rather drive a 3.5 EB as a daily driver and towing.IdaD wrote:
