 The milage ratings are overstated. 19.5 mpg is the best it gets.  The lightness of the  aluminum body lends to instability, both in the wind and during towing,  along with being easier to dent. I was a Ford person for most of my life (owned more than 10) but owned a Dodge and a Honda since my last one. After owning my current F150, I am reminded that poor quality and unreliability is why I switched and today's poor quality is why I  shan't own another. There are just too many good vehicles made today to put up with Ford's petty and persistent failings. At less than 23,000  miles, the speedometer quit working. Cruise control same story. The Dodge had almost 200K miles and the Honda 268K and none of the chicken s#@+ things happened like this Ford has had. Uncomfortable and hard to maintain the cleanliness of the cab (the fabric stains easily)  is also annoying.  All in all, (as you can see) I am not happy with Ford.) Updated 12/2017.....Sold it because I was so disappointed.  POOR resale value.
