Gas Milage

Just wondering, I am getting 14.8 MPG in the city. Not sure what I get on the highway since I don't drive it. I live in Denver (5280' altitude). Driving my 2000 Expy. 5.4L 4 wheel drive

Is 14.8 MPG good, average or bad?

I am wondering what the other owners of the 2000's are getting.

Do you have the 4.6 or 5.4?

I am getting 17.3 mpg. (non highway) I have a 2004 E.B. 2WD, 4.6 engine.

 

[japato]

It is the 5.4, 4 wheel drive

Well japato, I would say 14.8 is pretty good given you don't see much, if any, highway time.

That is about what I get with my 03 5.4L 4x4 all the time. We do not have highways here on the Big Island.

CMINEER, 17.3 in the city? Ain't no way, unless it's downhill both ways. I can barely get 16 on the highway. Can you let us in on your secret?

Not having to look us in the eyes when he types it??

Like I said, I have a 4.6 with 2WD. Maybe that is the difference. I am a newbie. I have only had the thing for a week now.

Jus' bustin' yer stones, bud!

17 seems awful high for city driving regardless of the drivetrain.
