The throttle is more responsive, crisper/firmer shifts, power when you need it. I would say 13mpg tops on the highway. It's heavy and has 4.10 gears. But I also managed 10.5mpg towing a 12' enclosed tandem axle trailer at 71mph almost 180 miles 1 way. That impressed me.
At $2.50/gallon for fuel, it still costs me $1k less/year to drive an average of 15k miles over my 2017 F150. Tags/taxes and insurance are just sooo much cheaper.
