18 mpg towing 3000 lb trailer with 2.7L EcoBoost F150

I have a 2020 F-150 screw FX4 with the 5.0… I’m tempted to look at the PowerBoost next time around, but so far I’m not seeing a big difference in MPG between that and the 2.7, in reviews and on Fuelly. Is yours 4WD? What is your normal terrain — mine is all hills. And, what MPG are you getting when you aren’t towing?
Thanks in advance.

Wow that is crazy good mpg, my previous 12th gen 3.5 ecoboost was getting around 8-10mpg with my 14ft enclosed trailer even when trailer is pretty much empty, now I am wondering how much my new 2.7 will take with the same trailer.
