It's been a crazy year to say the least. I absolutely love this truck. 2019 XLT 4x4 302A PS, The F-150 next to mine is the exact same truck just with the FX4 package same year. What's interesting is I haven't really seen too many F-150 diesels on the road. I can say that on average I get about 26.7 miles per gallon. I have driven 40,050 mi as of today. I towed my 26' camper up to North Dakota from Virginia and realize under load I go through a lot of DEF & my mileage ranges from 9mpg to 16mpg while towing. All around It's been a great truck My only complaint is the turning radius sucks. I haven't had any problems with it. I've added a new grill, tow mirrors, rear airbags, a spray in bedliner and I used forscan😎. I've hauled a ton of rock in the bed of my truck and 1.5 tons of dirt. I'm still on the original tires and I changed my oil every 10,000 mi. What's your story?

Interesting. I will have to look into Cetane booster and give it a try. I am also thinking of doing a cold air intake, but have not started researching it yet.

If you go to a more aggressive tire check out Nitto Ridge Grapplers not noisy didn't affect fuel mileage and ride way better than the rest and look good

Yeah I was thinking 33 or 35 max. Leaning more towards the BFG T/S KO2 but I will look in to the Nittos RG. Thanks for the recommendation! Hoping to push the Stock setup another 20k. So by summer time 2021 is my hope.
