What type of driving is typical for you? Unless your driving conditions/habits are rather unusual then something might be wrong with your truck, I have had my 01 supercrew 5.4 since it was new, it's at 120k miles now and has never gotten mileage that poor unless I was driving all day in bumper to bumper NYC traffic. My normal mix of driving is about 1/3 30 mph local roads, 1/3 50 mph county roads, and 1/3 70 mph highways, and it always gets between 15-18 mpg. Heck I get around 10-11 towing a heavy 25 foot camping trailer on long fairly flat highway trips, like my annual trek from NJ to Florida, and that's with a full load of people in the cab and bikes, etc in the bed too.
