If Ford really produces the 3v V10
I dont care what it gets for milage. I am so there
You know, in line to buy one.
I was getting tired of this one anyway
Ash trays full (coins)
Needs new tires (rear only)
windows are dirty
just trying to justify buying another new truck already.
Mabye A crew cab this time
so I can sleep in it when my wife throws my *** out

My guess would be that you won't see much of an improvement in milage. You need a certain amount of fuel to get the truck moving, and keep it moving, it doesn't really matter how much more power the new motor puts out.
Also, stop-and-go, people will probably burn MORE gas, because they can't keep their foot out of it
Unless Ford freed up a lot of friction in the new motor, it will probably average about the same as the 2v. And I doubt they did that, because there are more parts to suck more power through friction...
Unless they can run it leaner because of the VVT or something, I doubt you will see any difference. Except that it will use more when you punch it
