Filled up and figured gas mileage-UGH

[Jay87LX]

I got the truck last week, filled it, drove all week and filled today, 13MPG-UGH. That is with easy driving too- mostly city though. I will start the tune up and keep track of improvements

 

[sgtowing]

If your getting 13 with mostly city, that's not bad. I get about the same.

Easy there, I will happily take that MPG to drive such a truck- as I said in another thread, I have an'08 Accord and still would rather drive the truck-lol

i can get mid 11s to almost 12s in the city... but I baby it... highway depending on trip I can get over 13

 

[alaskanexpy]

i only see 13-15mpg on the highway...in town its 10-12mpg.

come winter though it can drop down as low as 7mpg lol winter gas, 4x4 all the time, idle time, 300lbs in the back i guess that crap does make a impact on the MPGs haha

I wasn't trying to upset anyone.....We all want our cake and eat it to....meaning HP, tires, lifts and MPG....Since I got my Edge programmer Im very impressed with what this beast gets...I agree with Donald Trump...we need to borrow a couple oil fields in Iraq and pump 18 trillion dollars worth of crude to pay for the war and then give it back them...of course with all the corrupt politicians we have we still would be paying top dollar....the day comes when I cant afford to drive my Expo...I will put in the park it out front and use it for lawn art...

 

[alaskanexpy]

when i did my figures a week or two ago, i've spent over $6,000 in gas in the last year for my 2 daily driver trucks over 23k miles from October 2010-October 2011..thats alot!

 

[thebeast1190]

I'm just happy to be getting 10.5 now. Until I got a tuneup I was only getting 8.

 

[KWT2000]

i get 10 in the city and 14 hiway.. so your doing pertty good.. a tuner would help a lot

 

[aircargoo]

trucks isnt the best but its worth it.i think i get over 12-13mpg...i got 4.6. runs smooth with reg unleaded.

takes 4 tanks from n.jersey to downtown orlando leaving me with just under half tank when i arrive. its 1100 miles. im getting 300 plus miles a tank i think...thats with some weight too.

Completely stock, stock tire size with 140k on the clock I can get 21 mpg on the highway with cruise set to @68 mph. That's with a really leaky passenger manifold and exhaust. Boy to I get passed a lot doing the posted speed limit though lol (for the other Canadian fellas on here, 110kph, 228k on the clock, best of 11.3 liters/100km)

We have nice big open highways here in AB.

In the city, 12-15 mpg.

I use the factory mpg tracker, also have a scangauge 2 connected up. They're about a mpg or so in difference.

That's a 5.4 liter, 3.55 gears.

 

[toms89]

I get close to 27mpg in the city.




























Maybe Not!!!!!!!!

9 to 10 on the highway. With the 7000lb travel trailer.

I got 19 going from Rochester to Schenectady last February and got just under 20 going out and about 16 coming home. Tailwind going out headwind coming home. I get 13-15 mpg normal running around.

I didn't get it for good mileage. I got it to carry me, my wife, 2 kids and an Old English Sheepdog. Hook up a 30' travel trailer and go anywhere I want.

2011 just picked mine up too

getting 20-23 mph-mostly highway! What a difference with the 6 spd.

 

[DF5.4]

I forgot to add that I've got 3.73 gears.

 

[whitelilli]

3.73 in a regular? Only standard in ELs now

3.73 in a regular? Only standard in ELs now

Yes. 3.73 gears were standard on the 4x4 in 07. The 4x2 got 3.31 gears.
