Horsepower, Torque, and MPG Confirmed

[Mr Roarke]

Im sure some will get the 20mpg highway. Depends on how flat your rolling and if there is a wind blowing hahah

I get over 20 mpg in my Gen1..........

Whenever I take my foot off the skinny pedal!!!

Was hoping for better mpg, but really not surprised. I haven't had anything that got better than 20 mpg hwy in a long time. My Taco only gets 11-12 mpg hwy with our RTT mounted (cruising at 65-80 mph).

there is no replacement for displacement in the long run. twin turbo means higher maintenance cost and replacement down the road.

That's for the next owner to worry about.

Disappointing. A small gain in performance and MPG on a truck we have been led to believe is basically a gift from the gods? Lame....

Keep your expectations low and you'll never be disappointed

My 5-year old Lexus GX460, which is a huge brick, easily gets well over 20 on the highway. Even doing 85-95 it'll get 17, 18 mpg.

But it doesn't have 4.10s and giant KO2s

Everyone all up in here comparing there own personal mpg specs on completely different vehicles to Ford's controlled testing specs and throwing tantrums

Maybe apples and oranges but my 2011 shelby gets over 22 miles per gallon 1850 rpms at 80 mph. I guess weight, tires and design require higher RPMs to prevent gear hunting, etc.

Ah man what a surprise on the power numbers.

I'm a bit disappointed with the mpg numbers. I really expected (well hoped) the truck would have a highway rating close to 20. Thinking about it I can't really be disappointed though. With the power numbers the truck has plus the tire size I guess those numbers aren't bad.

My current 13' 150 screw 3.5 eco, 4X4 with 6 1/2' bed and oversized 20's averages around 17 1/2. However when I get out on the highway above 70 that number drops. If this Raptor gives me similar numbers I'll be content with that.
