I have the 93 V10 tune but I only run it at the track. They don't sell 93 octane in Maine anymore so I run the 91 V10 for my daily driver tune.

I love my 2013 eco boost, it does get way better gas mileage than my 04 at least 2 mpg better even with being forced to buy 87 in recent weeks. Iowa and Nebraska went to a blended 84 ethanol with 91 octane to get 87 since gas suppliers wanted to cut back on supply lines(at least that is what press has said). When it was not containing ethanol my range for my crew cab was 670 miles. Drove from Council Bluffs to Colorado Springs and still had 70 miles to empty going up hill to the mountains. But once in Colorado they have all ethanol and have brained washed some of the weaker brained people in to thinking that they need ethanol in the mountains. Sadly heard it from more then one poor slob while asking where to get real gas. The trip back coming down out of mountains with ethanol did not make it home had to stop early to get fuel at 580 miles with dash saying 10 miles to empty. Thus real gas 87 octane and driving same back roads gave me a 23.3 mpg which I loved. Ethanol gas gave me a depressing 18.5 mpg. Now that I am forced to drive 87 ethanol to and from work I get about 17.4 mpg. If you keep it under 65 mpg it does way better and not drag from stop light to stop light your gas mileage goes way up. The towing is way better than my 04 was but have not done it with the ethanol crap. Still running test to see if the cost is worth it to run the premium 91 octane ethanol. Let you know when I get the test run with out fire calls in it which wrecks the my numbers because of pedal to the metal.
