That sounds about right according to what a couple of other V6 owners have told me. One guy claimed 28 but that was with a fairly new truck.

That is very respectable, it`s in our 98 Ranger territory at 28 mpg.
And here I`d been lead to believe the V6`s weren`t all that good on fuel, go figure......

i know an older guy with a '97 ext cab 2wd v6 auto and he complains constantly about 12-13 mpg highway, his driving style might have something to do with it, but he sure don't see 23-4. his '97 only got 30-odd thousand on it. i should take it for a week and see what it would get for me.

have you checked your city mileage Ryan??

Time will tell, hope it`s good, you need real decent fuel mileage these days with the price of gas.

Nope, for me it's just not wanting to turn out with the same gut as 90 percent of truck drivers.

The truck I took from work to come up to Saskatoon for training is a '05 F150 with the V6 auto. I will have to figure out the mileage when I fill it up before heading home. If the fuel tank is the same size as my '07 I don't think it gets any better!
