Sorry for the thread drift, but that is pretty impressive. I'm just up the road from you in Hattiesburg, MS, and we made the trip to Nashville and back recently on some of the same roads as your trip, and our '22 Limited Max (4x2, 302A, HD Trailer Tow) did 19.5 on the trip, right at 3 mpg less than you averaged on yours. That did include a little driving around Nashville, but we never saw above 20 mpg. I'd guess the HD Trailer Tow and 3.73's is the reason for the difference.That was into a 9 hr drive from New Orleans to Gatlinburg, TN. It does really well on long open road drives.
Also, for comparison sake, during the time between ordering our Expedition in February '22 and its arrival in September, we rented a '21 Suburban for a family trip to Gatlinburg. We were loaded with 4 adults, 2 kids, and all the typical luggage and gear needed for such a crew, and it averaged just under 20 mpg for the round trip.
