I'm curious on the MPG.

Somebody here the other day said they were getting 27 I think.

Was me. I'm getting 26 on the interstate with cruise set at 70. It goes down to 23 at 75.
Was pulling around 1,200 pounds yesterday and it dropped to 11mpg at 70 mph

Is that with a crew cab? 2wd or 4wd?

Ecoboost gets great mpg cruising but really drops considerably towing. I rarely tow so I'm good with it

In the 20s for 70-75 is very nice. Last weekend in my 5.0 4x4 w/ 33" ATs I got 14-14.5mpg at 70-75mph also pulling about 1200lbs for 130 miles.
- yes my gauges are corrected for tire size increase.

I've had mine for two months. About 6K miles I've gotten 26 on interstate loaded at 70mph. 17 pulling bay boat at 65 mph and averaging 21 in the city. That twin turbo will throw your head back when you get down on it as well.I love everything about it.

It'll probably get better once you get 20k-30k miles on it too.

I have the 14 3.5 ecoboost in my fx4 and im very impressed with it. I get avg 18 usually and can get 20 plus on highway if I stay at 60 to 65. Pulling my bay boat I get about 12 to 13 mpg at 65 to 70. These engines are nice and I would buy one again.

Imagine the 2.7l will get up with twins and 31psi of manifold pressure.

for what it is worth, I pull by 76 bronco on a trailer from time to time with my 5.0 and get 14mpg at 65 to 70 mph.

Ford let's them get that high?
Posted on 8/18/15 at 12:53 pm to meauxjeaux2
I've got the 2.7. 2WD Ext Cab.
Posted on 8/18/15 at 3:06 pm to Hammertime
31 psi and 10:1 CR. Used to be race engine territory 15 years ago.
Posted on 8/18/15 at 3:33 pm to Clames
I get 21 @ 70 in a 2014 gmc crew cab standard box. But 26 is insane.
Posted on 8/18/15 at 3:51 pm to Clames
No shite. I didn't think Ford would boost a little motor that much. My 6.4 went kaput when I hit 62psi
