AYFKM? Ford didn't learn from Kia/Hyundai's 2011 example, and misrepresented the gas mileage on the 2019 F150 and Ranger? Oh shit!

So far, this is going to be affecting the 2019 F-150, and 2019 Ford Ranger. 

a lawsuit is looking to be certified as a class action filed by Seattle law firm Hagens Berman is seeking $1.2 billion in damages. The suit also includes anyone who bought or leased a the trucks in question, and attorneys expect to expand the models and model-year vehicles affected as testing continues.

According to the law firm, “We did the math and based this lawsuit on our own independent research. Ford’s fuel economy promises are all smoke and mirrors,” said Steve Berman, managing partner of Hagens Berman. “Ford’s lies about the F-150 are masking the truth: Consumers are paying far more for these trucks than meets the eye. Over the lifetime of the vehicle, we believe F-150 owners are paying more than $2,000 more for fuel.”

    if you want a real world MPG number, you ask your friends who have one. or real the Car & Driver test of that car

    not the commisioned salesperson.

    plus the EPA doesnt do real world testing, its some computer simulation
