Yep, the fuel economy sucks, but it's a truck! I average less than 18MPG each tank with no load behind it, and 10-12MPG with my trailer attached. see full Ford F-150 review

Has a 5.4 liter V8. Love the power, but it guzzles the gas. Takes about $85.00 to fill up and can drive about 300 miles on one tank. see full Ford F-150 review

17mpg on average is a little low for a 4.6L. Ford should have focused more on fuel economy. see full Ford F-150 review

The supercharged 5.4L V-8 REQUIRES 91 octane premium gas, which it drinks at a rate of 1 gallon every 14.9 miles (14.0 or less for the first 40,000 or so miles). see full Ford F-150 review
