Teach me about Trucks

[Yaj Yak]

there's a lot going on here.

23 mpg avg limits the herd.

nicely optioned 3.5 ecoboost with under 100k miles for 15-20k though would be a steal of a hell of a truck

 

[Yaj Yak]

im excited to attack c-list ads out there.

I wouldn't buy a higher mile gen1 ecoboost, and this is coming from an EB lover. Too many issues with the first gens. 2nd gen FTW

For $20k i'd get an 11-14 5.0 crew cab f150. Forget getting 23mpg. If you have a weekend car and only want to spend $20k on a crew cab truck that can tow, you're not getting 23mpg nor do you need to. 18mpg vs 23mpg probably comes out to $30-40/month in fuel so it's probably not a deal breaker.

Your budget has to go up or your towing and fuel economy expectations need to go down. If the budget goes up, 2.7 ecoboost all day.

FWIW after 5k miles in my 2018 crew cab f150 i'm getting 21.4 mpg average, mixed driving. 3.5EB and 10 speed

 

[Yaj Yak]

id buy a first gen 1 and send it for 15k. yep.

almost did actually...

 

[FirstWorldProblems]

Just looked it up, looks like you're about 6000 feet above sea level. Personally I wouldn't want to tow a boat with a tacoma, colorado, or heap ridgeline at that elevation, but that's just me. Full size truck ftw

EDIT i hate that KJ's CL links are blocked on my work computer
