    I seen a lot of people who say they get awful mpg with the ecoboost but I haven’t seen it in person. I think a lot of these people are doing extended warmups or are in the turbos a lot. Both of those will suck fuel.

    The lifetime mpg on the F-150 I found said 19mpg. Probably a bit optimistic but not bad.

    We mulched about 10 hours last Friday, came back to the job site today to work some more (another 14+ hours of work to do) and I notice the machine is warm after only a few minutes of running so I keep a close eye on the gauges and sure enough within 20 minutes it’s climbing from 208 to 220 so I kill the hydraulic load and set it to high idle to help it cool and after about 2 minutes it finally starts dropping, dad’s supposed to be bringing a compressor and generator out to blow it out but for now I’m stuck doing nothing.

    This job is super dusty, lots of small pines being mulched and we’re backdragging the mulcher to give a super fine finish and it’s taking its toll on the machine.

    My first tank of gas in my F-150 calculated to 18.3mpg, some highway but mostly city. Crazy how a 4wd crew cab half ton pickup with 375hp, 470 torque gets better mpg than my Taco was getting stock.

    Still, my Taco gets garbage mpg for a 4cyl. Stock it was around 16mpg city, maybe 17 on a good tank. Modded I’m getting like 14 on a good day, like 12-13 if I ever hook my boat to it.

    A truck weighing 1500 lbs more with over double the power gets better, and that was mostly city, a bit of towing, and a bit of highway.

    I really like my P80 pf940c which is almost a g19 but with a different grip angle. The aftermarket support is awesome and its fun to shoot
