I've got the FX4 No Bailout Edition SCrew ECO with 4.11 and Max Tow with 6.5' bed and towing my 6000 lb trailer from Denver up to South Park I got between 11 and 12 up and back.
I towed my 74 Bronco from Denver to Buena Vista and back with around 1000 miles on the clock and got around 10. Only negative thing is the miles to E will lie to you. We were pulling back into town and coming down Turkey Creek canyon it said 50 miles to E. When we hit C-470 it changed to 20 miles to E and we had 25 miles to go. Tried to run the whole trip on one tank but had to stop and fill it up. I put in 24 gals for an average mpg of 10.3.

I have experience now. I towed my 4000 lb Travel Trailer with my new Ecoboost and I got 15.9 in the mountains of Georgia. On the flats I got up to 20 mpg. Not bad for a new engine. I did drive it 1000 miles like you are suppose to for break in before towing, and I did tow 500 miles going 65 or under and that's the mileage I got, YEAH I'll keep it.
I love my first truck.

From Kansas City to Breckenridge, CO averaged about 6.5 to 7.5. But that was fighting strong winds both going there and coming home. And doing the speed limit which got to 75 a lot of the way. Coming home winds were prob about 15 to 20 miles per hour hitting us on the side. Trailer was a 26ft that prob weighs about 6000 lbs loaded with our stuff.
