You can go look in my F150 with the 5.0 and it says I'm averaging 20.5 mpg.

Get a Ridgeline if you don’t really need a truck.

The comments in here from those who have not drove one are comical. I have a 2023 model with the 2.7 turbo. It has 9200lb towing capacity. Towed my boat with it this weekend, and it did every bit as good as the 5.3L V8 I traded in for it. It has more pep on the interstate than the 5.3L had. It gets up to passing speeds without sounding like its straining what so ever. I'm not towing flat beds or goose necks, or anything like that. A typical 35ft bumper pull travel trailer weighs 7000lbs or less. A 24ft bumper pull weighs 5000lbs or less (based on information my buddy, who owns a camper dealership gave me), so what the frick are yall towing with yalls trucks that you must have a fricking diesel?!?

Waiting for a turbo to spool up a 4 cylinder on a full size truck makes the vehicle not worth considering


You aren't waiting much for the new 2.7L turbo. It's pretty much on tap. I think they have a very elaborate turbo on that thing.

I've heard very good things about it.

I hate diesels. I have a 2020 AT4 with the 5.3; my 3rd 5.3 and have no issues towing or just cruising.

Thanks Obama. Don't believe me? Look it up. Part of GM's bailout.
