Best truck ever

I have had my new truck for two weeks now and all I can say is I love this truck. Anyone looking for a new truck should definitly look into getting a new F-150. In two weeks I have already put 2100 miles on it. So far around town Im getting 15mpg and on the highway 18-20mpg. Just got back from a 800 mile trip spent 12 hours in the truck. This truck is so comfortable never did I have any back pains. Getting ready to go on another trip by the time I get back it will probably have close to 4200 miles on it. At this rate I will have 52000 miles on it an a year.
So how many miles did you guys put on your new truck the first month you had it?

It's been about a month for me and just hit 3k yesterday on a trip out of town.

Like you said, best truck I've ever had. And by far the most comfortable too.

Same here, couldn't have said it better. A world away from my 04 and I thought it was a great truck. Just takes a little more learning to use all the options avaiable. I'm not getting near the mpg you are but hope it will increase with mileage, but I don't think so. Great truck! Love it and spend more time in it than anywhere else lately. Only have 600 miles on it, but planing a long road trip soon.

I've had mine a little over a week and, considering this is my first truck, I love this thing. I only have just under 500 miles on it but I see many more in its future.

I've had mine for 2 1/2 months and I am right at 2200 miles. Enjoyed every mile though. Spent more time in the first month modding it than actually driving it. I am getting closer to completing all of them though - only a couple more as of right now left to do.

I can't complain. I'm easy on the go pedal as well. Most of my driving is in town, so that's where the difference is.

Well put! I'm loving mine too. 800 miles and just over a week.

I've never driven a truck that drives so well and is so capable. Smooth, quiet, fast, wow! I've been getting just over 20 hwy and 16-17 around town. If it gets better after it's broken in that would be a real bonus.

I ordered up a HD BakFlip cover and new tires for my new ride.

P.S. The dog likes it too!

Those #s are legit. I like the truck. Somedays I feel like Tony Stewart in the commercial where he is staring at his vette.
