Bought a new truck, Ecoboost content

The pics aren't great, as the sun is setting, but here is what I have so far.
Put about 300 miles of pretty mixed driving, dash is showing 17ish mpg. thats with some full throttle stuff, highway stuff, and in town stuff. Salesman had one and he said about 600 miles it seemed to inprove a bit. The truck we test drove had 400ish miles and was getting about 20mpg.














This picture is to show the paint, its called tuxedo black



And she makes Ford #4 at the house(F-150 #3)

Nice to see a car seat in there.

Thats the whole reason im buying a new truck later this year, with baby #2 on the way the supercab is just too small.

Any issues getting the seat in there? I imagine it has the LATCH system? One seat will be forward facing and the other will be rearward (wife is due in Sept.).

Is it possible to have 2 child seats and enough room for an adult back there comfortably?

Plenty. Drove all the way from Illinois to the Big Easy that way with no issues. The LATCH is cheesy with the strap tether above the rear seats, nut they work well.

Nice FX4.....have to say the EcoBoost has been tempting; you get to have cake (weekend toy) and eat it too (everyday family vehicle)! Good luck with the new ride!
