Have a 14 F150 with Eco boost and like everyone else said, no change in gas mileage from the 5.0 engine which is lame. Turbos are nice for towing but based solely on gas mileage it's fair.

Question for Eco boost truck owners, you have any issues pulling up a hill in tow/haul mode. Mine starting down shifting like crazy (downshifting to 2 gear going 75mph on the interstate is interesting to say the least). Took it to dealer, full warranty, they went through it, checked everything, reset computers and no change). It's going back soon. (Only towing a 175 navigator so not a huge glass boat either, and not a terrible grade, just when I hit the gas hard).
Nope. I've got a 2013 eco-boost that has never had the problem you are having. I've got friends with the same truck that never mentioned that problem either
