2013 ecoboost milage?
#16
I have a 2013 ecoboost Lariat supercrew 6.5 foot bed w/ 3.73 gears 4x4. I bought this to use . on first trip averaged 11.5 to 12 mpg. second trip 200 mile home,pulling a empty 18 foot flatbed trailer 10.5 to 11 mpg. Now I have 1200 mile on truck,pulled our 16 foot camper ,don.t know the weight ,but pulling same trailer with our 06 5.4 averaged 11-12 mpg. With the ecoboost,our milage was 7 to 7.5. These mile figures were using miles to gallons used, vehicle average miles was about the same. Is there something wrong with this truck or am I stuck with this. What mileage are you getting? Thanks
My 2008 Sport Trac with 4.6L 3 valve V8 and 6 speed transmission averaged around 9.0 mpg pulling my previous Jayco Jay Flight 19BH 22.5' travel trailer that weighed roughly 5000 lbs loaded.
I can't believe your F150 is getting such horrible mileage pulling such a tiny camper. Take it in to the dealer for sure, so they can find the problem.
BTW, both trucks used 87 Octane with 10% Ethanol blend (NW Indiana is required and much of Indiana also ).
Good luck.

I am in same boat with my 13 4x4 screw w/331s eco. Just turned 3500 miles and getting 13.7-15.4 mostly Interstate miles. My 2011 eco w373s averaged 18+mpg for 72000 miles driving same roads.
Its not winter fuel, tire pressure, break in or driving habits. Its the damn Truck!
