Sold my ‘20 Ranger for a Lightning

[Jhbryaniv]

Does it not?

Almost anyone but you, I would call BS on.... ?

Also, this is N=2?

All I am saying is that fuel mileage at that range is the exception, not the norm.

I can say the only way I got that really high MPG was I set the cruise at speed limit + 10%, set the adaptive to as close as it allows and the first larger truck or van that was over the speed limit and less that my cruise was set to, I'd just stayed behind them on my drive to the 2023 SCCA Runoffs at ViR. Drafting is an option for MPGs.

This image is from my RS when I drafted behind my wife's 16 Wrangler while we were returning home from mountains of NC back to the coast after a hurricane. Due to several gas stations being out of premium and me requiring premium I was on her back bumper on that drive, I'm actually surprised I didn't get pulled for how close I was staying to her, but we discussed it and had radios with VOX on hers so it would auto key up if she yelled at it.

I'm not sure what N=2 is... I have a 4WD if that is what you were asking, if you are asking where that is logged, that is Fuelly, so I enter the milage and the gas filled at that time.

Agreed, as you can see my average with the Ranger is under 19MPG, but I do tow a lot with it. I have the Ford Performance tune as well and always run 93.

N being the number of observations in a statistical grouping... Thus N=2 means there are 2 of you who I have seen to have gotten higher than expected mileage...

Can the truck do it, yes. Does it do it under normal driving conditions, no.

When we roadtrip in the truck, I try and set cruise to within 5 of the speedlimit. I'm that jack wagon who camps in the far right lane and goes 5 under when the speed limit is over 70mph. When we do that the dash creeps closer to 20mpg, but never for long. ?
