My Lariat 4x2 likes city driving under 35 mph, and highway under 65 mph. This was from Thursday at Ocean city Maryland's Endless summer Cruise in. I was getting 29.3 mpg over a 25 mile trip, all of which was stop and go light to light checking out all of the cool cars. Bret

Mileage got up to 29.6 but I didnt get pics of it. After 40 mile trip home mileage came down to 27.4. Not bad ! Bret

Under 65mph on a highway? Time is money don't think I could stomach that. lol

 

[Cape Cruiser]

Its hard not to go over 65 mph but that seems to be the sweet spot for mileage that I dont always hit . Retired so time is no problem. LOL. Bret

I've noticed idling hurts mileage, I stop for coffee or a drink most days on the way to work an I always lose a tenth or 2 just from that.

This is why I keep the Auto Start/Stop turned on. Deal with the devil depending on who you ask on here, but whatever. Sometimes I end up sitting at a stoplight or train crossing for minutes, that's a lot of wasted fuel.

After over 1200 miles with my Ford tune the mileage has increased from 21.6 to 22.7 mixed driving. It just plain runs better.

Just did an 800 mile trip. Half of those miles were offroad with aired down tires.

Averaged about 19 MPG.

What he asked and, what do you mean by "runs better" exactly?

I can't speak for the Ford tune but the Livernois tune I'm running really wakes the truck up. Way more responsive and power all the way through. My mpg has gone up about 1.5- 2 mpg driving normal. I just averaged 23.5 from AZ-UT driving 75-80 mph which was the best according to my Fuelly app.

5 highway miles @65MPH.

that just alerted all the law enforcement types

Is this something I can request from the dealer? I'm one of the dweebs who doesn't like changing anything that Ford could point to as the source of the issue until after my warranty expires. Unless of course they do it themselves, although even then I've heard some bad stories of the Roush tune put on by a dealer causing issues that Ford didn't wanna fix.
