I had my mind set on a 2011 Dodge Ram but the 5.0 liter V8 with the 6-speed can probably get 20 mph on the highway. I'd wait for an eco-boost but it sounds like we won't see them until last Spring.

I'll need to see more real world 5.0 vs eco boost tests in the next couple weeks.

Hopefully I'll have mine in a couple of weeks! 5.0

The Canadian numbers don't relate to the US numbers because they are tested differently.

The EPA numbers announced by Ford are what Ford is predicting. The final numbers are rumored to be better.
