Considering the hype that the new F150 is getting, I suspect there will be some fantastic deals to be had on left over 2014 models.
Only one data point, but I regularly tow 4000 lb of 23' boat and 2000 lb of tandem axle trailer, so 6000 lb of tall and wide load. Truck is a 2012 F150 SuperCrew 4x4 with the 5.0 and 3.55 rear axle ratio, tires are approximately 1" oversize which doesn't help MPG. At 65 MPH I get in the ballpark of 12-13 MPG, at 80 MPH it's more like 9 MPG. On the upside, I can set the cruise at 80-85 MPH and the truck maintains speed.
