The Conversation Pit
This is where EVERYTHING else goes. No subject is too mundane. How's the weather in your area? Did your kid cut his first tooth? Really, what do you think about the President? And don't get me started on Cummins and Duramaxes. Have at it!

Just remembered that the ecoboost motor or some variation of it might be an option in 2011-12 in the f150's. Its replacing the 4.6L 2V.

By far the best economical solution is keeping up on maintenance and checking tire air psi.
Oh ya!
Controlling your right foot.

If you take a stock f150 and apply custom tunes to it that can also help.

Well I heard that those new bugs have a little turbo in them so they didn't need as big of an engine. Smaller engine with a similar power rating should get better mileage.
So if we lower the F150 and have it naked(no grill guard, tool box ect.) with a bed cover, add more gears, chop out any metal parts that are not being directly used, put little narrow tires, the OP's mods, and with a lazy right foot you might be able to get good mileage...down hill.
