"What's the real world fuel economy of the 2019 Ford F-150 Raptor?"

Question

Accepted Answer

Based on my research, here's the real-world fuel economy story on the 2019 Raptor:

**EPA vs. Reality**
- EPA stickers it at 15 city / 18 highway / 16 combined
- In the real world most owners report 12-14 mpg in mixed driving and 16-17 mpg on gentle highway runs. Car-and-Driver’s 172-mile test loop came back at 14.8 mpg (60 % city-style), which lines up with the crowd-sourced data from ~315 trucks on Fuelly.

**Why the gap?**
Big tires, 4.10 axles, and the twin-turbo 3.5 L love to spool—perfect recipe for single-digit numbers when you lean on it, and mid-teens when you baby it. If you tow or play in the sand, plan on 10–11 mpg.

**Bottom line:** budget for low-teens in everyday driving and you’ll never be surprised at the pump.
