And here I am sitting over here amazed they had 22.7 mpg highway on a 2018 2.7. I was rocking a pretty consistent 19.7. Lucky Sobs!

Exactly. It's no different than the many mpg posts here where some are getting great mileage and other are not. Different driving habits and terrain will put these numbers all over the place. I'm more than happy with mine and have no complaints. Besides the only ones who make out in the dumb class action law suits are the lawyers! They get millions and you'll get your $25.00 check in 3 years. :facepalm:

I'm gonna sue!! 3" lift with 295/70/17 -12 offset and I get no where near the sticker milage. Clearly Ford should have anticipated that i was going to modify the truck for offroad use and engineered the anticipated fuel mileage for me... How dare they!!!! Bawaaaaa. Some people! Go buy a flippin Prius!!

Last class action suit I didn't know I was a part of got me $0.82. Turns out I somehow got double the typical payout. Don't tell anyone though, I am afraid I may have to pay back the difference.

Wouldn't it be a bitch if it threw you into a higher tax bracket though. :shock: That would be my luck!:facepalm:

OMG!!! This is the best part of the article ever. "Because of Ford’s deception, all purchasers and lessees of these vehicles paid more for these vehicles than they are actually worth,” the lawsuit says."

Hell yeah im pissed!! Ford deceived me!! They never said how powerful this little 4 banger is that runs circles around my ole Tacoma!! How dare they!! Damn the deception!! I'm mad as Hell!!!! OMG ? I can't stop laughing over this ridiculous law suit!!

I'm a broke guy with no money and have no business hanging around this stupid money pit of a board. I had to put my dampener on payments.

I still get 17 MPG if I'm lucky, because I love this truck so much.
Just think, once you get your damper you'll be getting 19mpg's. ?

I'm getting 19.6, last time I looked, but it is an FX4, leveled, tuned, aggressively tired, I turn off auto S/S as soon as I get in, drive in Sport a lot of the time, always keep the windows closed and the air conditioning on (the better to enjoy the B&O), and, yeah, I love punching the turbo on mountain roads. So I am getting considerably less than Ford's estimate, but this is, as the song says, "nobody's fault but mine," and I love this truck! Lawyers, count me out!
