New Observation, Info, Opinion, Data :
3200 miles now and on Motor craft Full synthetic Oil.
My Mpg's shot the hell up on the full synthetic.
2900 miles on the blended Motor Craft roach oil, that's only 10% synthetic.
Best average MPG I could attain was 22.8.
I will admit my Ecoboost Is breaking in nicely, It gets an Italian tune up every thousand miles, has since 1,000. At 5,000 miles my best was 21.5 mpg.
Ok again at 2,900 22.8 mpg and,,
Drum roll ~~~~
I changed to the Full syn at 2,900, my 300 mile average is now 25.5 mpg.
Full syn rawks.
Also been experimenting with Tire pressure. So far my sweet spot is 38 psi cold in the shade at 72 degrees Fahrenheit.
When it hits 92 F most afternoons my tires go up to 41 psi.
Handling is excellent, no A/T tire noise at all.
Stock Goodyear AT Territory sum such nonsense.
Yep synthetic oil seems to be that much slicker'er. :'P
Oh yeah, My high tech seat of the pants power and acceleration equipment says this 2026 Eco is getting much quicker and way smoother.
I LOVE this Engine, and truck.
Tremor's rule !
