<a href="http://www.autoblog.com/make/ford">Ford</a> has got the gas mileage goods on its <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/2011+Ford+Explorer/">2011 EcoBoost-powered Explorer</a>, and it's news you might like if you want one: you'll get 30 percent better mileage with the inline-four than you could with the outgoing V6. Ford did, however, leave a key detail out of the press release touting this: it didn't reveal the actual mileage number, "pending EPA certification." <br />
<br />
Nevertheless, with the 2010 Explorer's 210-horsepower, 4.0-liter V6 EPA rated at 14 miles per gallon in the city and 20 out on the highway, you're looking at a healthy increase all over with the four-pot turbo doing the work up front. Follow the jump for Ford's press release that details all the reasons your wallet won't be so sad if you end up buying a 2011 Explorer. <br />
