2015 Ford F150 lighter and with a 2.7 EcoBoost Engine

Looks like Ford decided to try and hurt the EcoDiesel says with this new engine. A 2.7L EcoBoost with estimated 30 MPG will put it right there with the Ram Ecodiesel on mileage figures. What do you guys think? The truck is 700lbs lighter also. That has to help with fuel economy.

It will be competition no doubt, and it will come down to the consumer wanting either a diesel or gas engine, along with comparing styling between the both.

It will help when unloaded. Economy will plummet when the gas engine is asked to carry a heavy load or pull a trailer. The diesel will be far less affected. So in practical terms it comes down to how often you tow or carry a load.
