man I’m getting 16 around town hahaha

It's been cold here an I've only done local around town driving an I'm getting a whopping 13 MPG this tank! I've never gotten under 17. I guess it's all the warm up time I've been using.

do yall run 93?

 

[Trustable]

it didnt seem to hurt my mpg by much at all. i get about 21 in town and off road mixed and about 24 on the high way if i behave my right foot. *that is with the ford performance tuning.

Thanks. In terms of mpg, I've been getting 19 average since I moved to an area that has the highway speed limit of 75. My mpgs just tank around 72-75. I was getting 22-24 over the summer commuting but the speed limit was only 70. Maybe it's because it's cold or I have 240 pounds of sand bags in the bed. At 55 I get around 25-28. Hoping when I take the sandbags out it improves a bit.

I'm running the Livernois 91-93 soft shift tune and 91 is the highest we can get here.

I did when I had the high octane tune in. I put the low octane tune in for winter. I miss the 25 HPs you lose so in spring I'll go back to the high octane tune. I probably lost .5 to 1 mpg after adding the 265's to the truck. I checked the weight of all the options an the Nitto's are 6 pounds heavier per tire, one of the lower weight options.

Looks mighty fine! Love the iconic silver. Some silver vehicles look cheap and generic but iconic seems to look premium on a ranger.

My avg MPG really drops in the winter, not so much due to the tires or winter blend fuel, but due to me remote starting and letting it run for 5-10 minutes before I get in it.

My average this morning was 14mpg

Thanks, I was just told that its hard to keep the rake when upgrading to the fox leveling kit or to use blocks on the rear, so I think ill be going this route, saving lots of money as well! How much was your mpg affected?

Great tires!

Have put 4000 miles on the KO2's AT (265/70/17). Love the way they handle and ride...much better than the stock factory tires. Aggressive look and quiet. Excellent both in city and on highway. Have the same size spare to go with them.

What level/suspension? Also any wheel spacers?

those that are getting lower mpg that changed tire size, did you adjust the tire size for the computer and speedo?
i spent about 6 hours today mixed between old state highways and dirt roads / ranch access roads about 30 miles of it was in 4wd and still averaged 21 and change. that included a few right foot misbehaviors and the light to light traffic getting out of the metro mess plus carrying two spares on steels, load e all around the six, full tool bag, assorted recovery gear, full size shovel, axe, recovery tracks, full 52 quart cooler of drinks and food 10 gallons of extra fuel, 2 gallons extra drinking water, air compressor, lawn chairs - the works. i figured eveyones mpg would be around 20.

I changed it with my Livernois tuner.
