I have an 08 z71 4x4 (don't know if his is) but i've never seen mileage over 17 even straight interstate. I got about 15.5 interstate and 13-14 city and about 11.5-12.5 pulling our 19ft nautic star.

The only time i saw over 17 was driving 65 on interstate for half the tank.

I have a 2011 Ford F-250 Four door, 4 wheel drive with the 6.7 diesel. I get 19.5 - 20.5 on Interstate empty. 17 - 19 in town empty. 10 - 12 pulling my 10,000 lb. fifth wheel camper. Depends on terrain. Very pleased. I have nephew that has the Ecoboost. He loves the truck and loves the fuel economy. Trying to talk my wife into one. His truck gets better fuel mileage than my wifes V-6 explorer. It also has more towing capacity than my son's 4.6 F-150 4 X 4 and better gas mileage.

Find a dealer of each and take one home for the weekend and then choose. Bolton will do it so use that on Navarre or all-star , mark. 2011 fords have the most free-board of any trucks out there.
