    Yeah, the 34 gallon tank will hurt a little to fill up. I have a friend who has the EL and it sounds like it isn't much thirstier than the flex with the ecoboost.

    We get about 9 miles to the gallon. It pushes a lot of air on the freeway. But it has room for all our horse stuff.

    I hope that is with pulling a trailer. My friend's EL gets 16 around town and about 20 on the highway.

    Pretty much. 15 inches longer than the regular one.

    My wife had a K2500 Suburban with a 454 for a couple of years. She loved it, and it pulled our 3-horse slant load trailer, with 3 horses and all the gear in the dressing room, plus 3-4 people in the truck with no problems. To top it off, we got 18 mpg on the interstate. Pretty nice ride.
