Towing with the new Ford F150 2.7 Eco-Boost

We are always looking for better gas mileage while towing. We are considering buying a new Ford F150 with a 2.7 Eco-Boost engine and a rear axle ratio of 3.31. We travel primarily in the southwest U.S. which means we do some towing through the mountains. We tow a 20' travel trailer that weighs about 6000 lbs. loaded. Does anyone have experience towing with this truck in the mountains?
