So are the 12's going to actually get better mpg or was the window sticker change just wishful thinking?

Accordig to an article I read, they said that Ford made some "tweaks" to increase gas mileage. So I assume that it's real.

I can't believe that there are any "tweaks" that will pick up 2 hwy mpg.

Happen to have a link to the article?

I can get 15-16 when I don't have the usual 10-15mph Texas head-wind, so 16 isn't out of the question, I just seriously doubt they changed anything except for some tuning, which wouldn't net 2 mpg.

Roger that. I got 15.5 in town and 16.5 on the road with the factory intake. Switched to the drop-in K&N and magically got 15.5 in town and 16.5 on the road. Then got an AIRAID intake and huzzah! I peaked at 15.5 in town and 16.5 on the road.
