Ford does not claim that anyone driving their Ecoboost any way they feel like driving it. (IE driving it like you stole it) will make 22 mpg. Ford says the 3.5 Ecoboost can make 22 mpg when driven in the EPA highway cycle. The rules for the EPA highway cycle is 1 70 degrees or warmer. 2 A warmed up veichle. 3 Summer grade gas. 4 acceleration not to exceed 3.3 mph per second. (about 18 seconds 0-60) 5 Not to exceed 60 mph).
Driven gently as that in decent weather , I can usually exceed that 22mpg number with my 11 Ecoboost 3.5 F150. This is a 4wd crewcab with towing package that weighs 6400 pounds with two people and a half tank of gas.
Your mpg with an Ecoboost or any other engine is determined by your brain and right foot. Anyone who thinks you can drive a machine hard while still making the EPA highway mpg number is a fool.
