Report your MPG

[Gizmokid2005]

This truck gets used for a lot of different things for us. Family trip rig, tow rig, home improvement rig, my commuter, weekend errand rig, off-road adventure rig, etc. So there's just such a smattering of types of driving I do that makes the mileage go all over the place.

My low point was towing our camper (w/ kayaks on top) at 75mph on the freeway, uphill, into a strong headwind. Disappointing for sure, but not surprising.

My high point was a clean profile, long distance, relatively flat and smooth family trip at highway speeds (60-65mph). Quite happy with that one. I still am convinced I can beat it. Especially since I've since gotten the topper, which seems to add almost 2mpg across the board with the way I drive.

That makes more sense. My low points are tanks full of off-road. Normally a trip is ¼-½ tank of gas off-road, but there have been a few higher than that and that's where my lows come in. I can do really well on the highway but not much of that driving going on and there's tons of hills around here.

I almost looked at a topper over a tonneau again, but I love the flexibility I get without the topper.

Latest tank was 270 miles mostly 60mph hwy and some city. Truck said 23.9 gas pump says 23.2mpg. Can live with that.

With just under 9k miles overall is 21.5 smiles per gallon

I'm always surprised at the consistency of some your guys' mileage. Mine has been anywhere from 13-28mpg. Even anywhere between 20-25mpg just commuting for work. Of course, I hardly ever have the same driving on any tank. It would take me 3 weeks of commuting to empty a tank if that's all I did, and I hardly ever do nothing with the truck for 3 straight weekends.

I'm all over the place for work so my driving differs from day to day. One thing is here it's pretty flat unless I head up north so that helps stay consistent. Like @Gizmokid2005 when I'm off roading I can go through 1/4-1/2 a tank and still average 16-17 mpg and most times the ac going too. At some point I'm want to all out WOT most of a tank just to see what I get. Doubt I'll get any tickets as everyone here drives like a bat out a hell normally. lol

And that's just downtown (here and there too I bet)!

Know matter how fast you're going here you're going to slow. The speed limit on the I-17 once you start getting up north is 75 mph. I'll be doing 85 mph and there will be someone on your bumper. Around town is even worse as they will ride so close you'd swear they're glued to you.

Can't complain about this

The gas station I filled up at was at the top of a long hill, so it's always fun to see how high I can get the reading.

Actual mileage for the fill up was 26.393

Well played sir, well played.

The highest I ever got on my ranger work truck was 24. The lowest was 6. However it was in 4 lo all day in the slop.

My most recent tank was 21.6mpg. That was with about 180 miles of 75mph highway and 75 miles of around town. Not bad. Not amazing, but not bad. That's with a Roush tune and CAI.

How do you like the CAI and tune from Roush?

My truck really wants to get great mileage, but my work drive has big hills that go in both directions. Keeping it up to speed really gets the turbo going pretty good, I think we all know how that ends.

Anyway, 4x4 22.8 average

Edit/update: on my 3rd tank of premium fuel (93) 23.2 and climbing

26.5 Mpg Hand calculated "91 octane". 70-75 Mph, 32 miles each way to work and back. 90% Highway...I'm very impressed...

22 mpg Sport Mode only .

I track my fuel using Fuelly, and don't really trust the onboard. I reset it every fillup out of habit, but use it more for tracking milage on my oil tbh (trip2).

Impressive fuel price. I pumped premium for like 2.96 yesterday. Northern michigan

Premium here is around $2.50 - I'm still bone stock, and run 87/89 most of the time. We're just outside of New Orleans.

The first 8k miles mixed driving 21.6

The last 600 or so after the Ford tune 21.8.
