I love the truck but wish the mileage could be a bit better. It is an F150 Platinum. Need it for a business purpose for now.
Today I tested it in mostly city stop and go, I am in the low 13mpg range. I was Very easy on the gas. I am going to run that FI canister with 50/50 seafoam and gas next. Thinking of doing plugs too, they are 50K old. I installed new coils.
But at close to 200k mi, it runs like a new truck. Maybe I will trade it in for a Powerboost :lol:
Guess this is a good long term motor.
Also, it was officially backspeced to 5W30 (cap says 5W20). I had it state inspected at Ford and the tech said that is what you should be using. He said he likes Pennzoil Platinum High mileage.
