Consistent fuel mileage?

[Dereku]

22 average here. Mostly highway and only cheap stuff from Sams. If I do only city i dip into 19-20 range. It is a 4x4. I floor ot more than i should too. Long drives I have hit high 24s hand calculated. My first 1000 miles or so was lower.

My Tremor has been getting 21-23 with a mixture of highway/city driving. All highway at 60 mph with the cruise I can get 28+.

I am approaching 20k miles.
I have not calibrated the computer.
I am very consistently getting 24.9mpg.
90%highway, 10% country roads.
100% NO ETHANOL GAS!

Ethanol is to a DI engine as a milk shake is to my lactose intolerance. ...not recommended. LOL

one consistent thing I see is my fuel economy drop when it gets cold.

Yup in the Northeast here they change to a winter blend and I loose 1-2 mpg

I see it before the fuel blend switch if we have especially cold mornings. fuel economy is in the pits unless I drive longer than 20min or so (pretty rare) to warm things up, and THEN the fuel economy will creep back up.

Mine was stuck around 19MPG for the first year. Nowadays I'm around 22.5 (the left foot has gotten lighter which helps) but it doesn't vary wildly, it's always on or around the same figure

This.

My wife drives the truck most times. It was constantly getting 18mpg! When gas increased this spring, she was not as hard on the right pedal. It is now getting a constant 23mpg. So, slow off the stops & CC asap. 50/50 city/highway, on regular gas, stock setup.

Depending on the condition you drive in and how you drive determin the fuel mileage quite a bit. With my ranger I was ussualy low 20's but tuere were some times I got close to 30. It wasnt often but it happened

Sadly a F-150 gets about the same MPG (within 1 MPG). My girl has a 2019 3.5 ecoboost 375hp and it returns 16-21 MPG (Averages around 19), I get 20-21 with my Ranger.

I stopped looking at my onboard fuel mileage computer and comparing it all the time. The first slow drive-thru you sit in puts it through the roof and it never recovers.
When I first got my Ranger I despised the auto start/stop, now I'm cursing it because it doesn't activate often enough, in said drive-thrus.

What's the cost difference there?

Here diesel is about 150÷ the cost of gasoline.

I am paying $4.91 per gallon.

I am paying $4.91 per gallon.

And that compares to gasoline there how?

I'm just saying that 150% of the mileage for 150% of the cost seems like 6 of one, half a dozen of another.
