I'm getting 18+ MPG with my '09 F150 SuperCrew with mixed driving . I have the 3.73 rear end and towing package. Albeit I drive it easy and don't do rocket launches from stop lights so that plays a part.

If I had the 3.55 gears I would be over 19 MPG. I have a co-worker with the exact same truck as mine but he has the 3.55 and he gets close to 20 MPG but his commute it 10 miles of 45 MPH and next to no stop lights.

When I'm filling up the 36 gallon fuel tank, I'd sure like to get another 2 MPG I can tell you that.

My truck is rated for 9300 lbs of towing, his is rated at 7200 pounds because of the different rear ends.
