How big is the gas tank on a 2007 Ford F-150?

The 2007 Ford F-150’s gas tank size ranges from 26 to 30 gallons. Whether you’re driving a Crew Cab XLT with a 5-speed manual, a King Ranch with 4-wheel drive, or a special 300-horsepower Harley Davidson edition F-150, the exact size of the gas tank in your 2007 F-150 will depend on its cab and box configuration as well as the type of engine.
The table below shows how your F-150’s cab configuration and bed length affect its gas tank specs:

How to check your 2007 Ford F-150’s gas tank size

If your F-150 didn’t make the list above, don’t worry: here are a few tricks of the trade to help you pin down your truck’s fuel capacity:

Measure the gas tank

First, make sure you have a measuring tape and a calculator. To measure your gas tank:
  • Multiply the width, length, and height of the tank
  • Divide the result by 231 (the number of cubic inches in a gallon)

Check your owner’s manual

If you have your owner’s manual kicking around, you can look up the size of your gas tank in no time. There should be a “fuel tank capacity” heading or similar phrase to point you to the correct measurement.

Drive till empty, then fill it up

If you’re not satisfied with the above results or want to try a riskier method, drive your F-150 until the fuel gauge hits “E” before filling it up. This won’t give you an exact measurement, but it’ll give you a ballpark range of how much gas your tank needs—but don’t drive too long on empty!

How to save on fuel costs in a Ford F-150

The 2007 Ford F-150 has an EPA-estimated fuel efficiency of about 15 mpg combined city/hwy. This isn’t a great rating, but what else would we expect from a truck that’s over ten model years old?
With gas prices on the rise, it makes sense that you’d want to find ways to save on gas costs, especially for your gas-guzzling F-150. Here are some simple ways to maximize your truck’s gas mileage:
  • Keep up with your truck’s maintenance: Oil changes, tire pressure, and other maintenance items can affect your fuel economy. If your F-150 is well-taken care of, it will perform better on less fuel. 
  • Drive carefully: Keep your gas consumption steady by easing into acceleration and being gentle with the brakes.
  • Avoid idling, especially in cold weather: Idling eats up gas. Keep your idling periods short and use driving to warm up your vehicle.
