If it were my truck, the only thing I'd put down the fuel tank is BP and Shell 87 octane gasoline.

I also have 2011 screw 5.0. I understand why you would be pissed, I'm getting closer to 20 mpg stock. Maybe that's the problem. I've read that the 2011 and up changed some things to improve mileage without losing power. If you have k&n oiled filter you may have oil and dirt on your maf sensor.
