Your 2017 Ford F-150 is designed to run on regular unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of at least 87 or regular unleaded gasoline with up to 85% ethanol (E85). Using a higher octane gasoline than recommended in your owner's manual is not beneficial as it won't improve your car's performance, speed, fuel efficiency, or cleanliness. How you drive can greatly impact your fuel economy. Aggressive acceleration and unnecessary braking waste fuel. To maximize fuel efficiency and extend the lifespan of your vehicle's components, drive smoothly, anticipate traffic movements, and maintain a steady pace once at speed.
All the F-150 engines are designed to operate on regular gasoline, making premium fuel unnecessary even for the EcoBoost models to achieve optimal performance. The manufacturer advises against using premium fuel, as it is commonly viewed as an unnecessary expense since regular gasoline is equally effective.
