2013 4dr Crew Cab 5.5ft bed turbocharged 365hp 3.5L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic 4WD w/low range		 Even with a heavy duty grill guard installed, fuel economy averages about 18-19. With a tailwind I've seen 22-23 on the highway. see full Ford F-150 review
2012 2dr Regular Cab 6.5ft bed 302-horsepower 3.7L V6
6-speed automatic RWD		 Really excellent, considering. Over 18 mpg city hand measured over multiple tanks IF its broken in and uses high test no ethanol. see full Ford F-150 review
2011 4dr Crew Cab 5.5ft bed turbocharged 365hp 3.5L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range		 Economically moving a nearly 6000 pound vehicle with 4 wheel drive and 3:73 gears is quite a job for any engine. Even with the aerodynamics of a brick, this little V6 manages anywhere from 16-20 mpg on regular gas. see full Ford F-150 review
