What kind of MPG mileage are you getting with your Powerboost?

[RossRR]

For my new truck, 502A PowerBoost Max Tow FX4, I topped the tank off this morning; odometer is reading 503.0 miles. The fuel gauge monitored "Full" and there were 58 miles on the truck when I bought it on Monday. So far I have put 7.119, 7.049, and 7.564 gallons of gas in the truck.
(503-58)/(7.119+7.049+7.564)=20.5mpg

Why are you topping it off so often?

Why are you topping it off so often?

Round trips to particular destinations and trying to stay ahead of the gas price inflation curve.

Typical. Anytime I drive my wife’s car I get about 20% better gas mileage. I just stopped pointing it out to her because I get the same answer

I taught my wife to drive a clutch (There were dark ages you know). I'll never remark on her driving skills... I have noted she's a leadfoot... She definitely drives in the speed lmit plus 10 world...

somehow…My wife took the truck for a small road trip 450km and brought it back at 28mpg. ?

Hey, I don't know what's up with your trucks, but I'm getting fantastic MPG with mine!

I beat you

I beat you

I don't know, his says 78 and yours says 105, I think he's winning...

I beat you

Not only did you beat my MPG, you did it in under 40 seconds!

It took me almost a minute and a half to get those kind of numbers.

My first tank I got 23.8 MPG with my 302A XLT Powerboost.

The dealer said it ran a while around the lot while they were prepping it so probably could have been a little higher. See how tank 2 goes.

F150 Supercrew 502A 6.5 bed FX4, max tow, and moon roof. Live in central IL. I’m currently averaging 19.5-20.5 mpg per tank. Mix city and highway driving. Occasionally pulling a boat on the weekends. I do have a stretch on my way from the gym to work where I’ll average 26-28.5mpg running 45-50mph during that.

Done trips to central FL and Ky (3 times) Both instances running 77-80 I was averaging around 19-21. My 21 F150 max tow eco boost was only averaging 16.5-17 for the same KY trip route.

pulling our 14 enclosed anchor (I mean trailer). And she gets around 10. But she pulls it at 80 like a dream. Roughly the same mpgs as my 21. But the longer WB on my 22 handles the trailer a lot better. I do wish it had the 36 gal tank for that , but it is what it is.

Did a round-trip to OH and back this week, about 1000 miles round-trip. Did 25 flat (measured) on way up and 24.8 on way back down. Lots of big hills in KY/VA/NC through Blue Ridge and Appalachians. Biggest thing I did was lock out 10/9 on the way uphill in order to prevent boost from kicking in, and I think 1500 rpm up a hill in 10th can't be good even if it thinks it can. Seems happier at 2200rpm and no boost. Lots of coasting/EV drive on way back down the hill.

Also mostly going about 60 mph, not in a hurry and lotta rain. Pretty amazing efficiency for a 6000 pound lump of steel and aluminum.

Took a trip from Vegas to Barstow Ca and back. 368 mile on Blue Cruise. 24.3 one way, 25.1 back. Mostly 73 mph. Less than 2000 mi on it.
I’m impressed!

"Our average fuel economy over 10,000 miles, six months and 30 fill-ups is a disappointing 19.3 miles per gallon"
