F-150 vs. Silverado: Fuel Economy
Strong performance often means that trucks sacrifice fuel economy, but that certainly isn't the case with the Ford F-150. Look forward to up to an EPA-estimated 20 mpg city and 26 mpg highway with a gas engine. Meanwhile, the Chevy Silverado 1500's gas mileage EPA estimates top out at 16 mpg city and 21 mpg highway. Why compromise with the Chevy Silverado 1500, when you can have both power and efficiency with the Ford F-150?
