Issues with 2010 Fx4 SCREW
Hello, new to forums, I usually lurk in the background and found some useful info on thes boards but now I have an issue im not sure about.
Specs:
2010 F150 Fx4 Super Crew
6000 miles bought it with 69 on the odo.
Everything stock
Issue:
It feels like its sturggling to maintain 70mph on the highway. If i take my foot off the gas it slows from 70 down to 50 in about 5 seconds instead of being able to coast - It doesnt sound like its over revving and the gauge reads a little over 2k rpm.
Kinda feels like driveing into a constant very strong head wind, or like Im towing a trailer, or dragging something.
Gas Mileage went from high 16 to 13.7 Highway (I drive highway everyday to work and back)
Going down a 6% grade hill I actually lose speed unless I keep on the gas.
I let it warm up every morning for about 15 min since it about 10 degrees out most days
Its not in 4high or 4low. Its in Drive, tow/haul is not selected to on. When going down hill if I shift it to neutral, I can regain speed. Soon as I shift back into drive I can feel it slow down.
I use the same gas station everytime since I bought the truck, and I've ran a bunch of tanks through thinking it could have been bad gas. Tire pressure is good. All fluids are at proper levels.
Any ideas? or do I need to take it to the dealer?

So, I dropped it off at the dealer this morning and had them take a look. Also had them change the oil, since i did it at 3000.
Heres what they had to say "nope nothing wrong, no codes no issues" "maybe its road conditions and cold out"
Edit** I'll check my mileage to see if they even test drove or just relying on "codes"
