About the same here, but mine is a 3rd Gen 2014 with the 5.4L V8 16-17 MPG mixed driving

Seeing all your 15-22mpgs makes me a bit jealous. Mine is a 2019 4x4 3.73 with 3" spacers and 34.5" tires, but my average hangs around 14mpg, with mixed city and highway.
On road trips it can go up to 16 or so, unless I drive over 70 and then it starts to come back down. But, since my tires have a little more circumference than stock, I might be getting slightly better than the un-calibrated computer thinks I'm getting.
But my lifted 2008 4x4 Expedition got around 10-11mph, and my lifted 2014 4Runner only averaged 15-16mpg. So, based on my previous experiences the lifted 2019 at 14-15mpg seems amazing, especially considering it is rated to tow 9000 lbs, and of those vehicles I listed has a tremendous amount more power. It can literally do just about anything I need it to do - besides pull a 5th-wheel. It's probably my favorite vehicle ever.
This is almost exactly what I have seen. Strictly city, at 3 to 4 mile trips at a time, we are getting about 14. Towing, it doesn’t do much better than my 2003 Expedition did, but it does it so much easier.I've seen 19-20 mpg purely highway at interstate speeds, but we usually get 17-18 mixed and it's been around 15 in town this winter.
Totally agree on towing. If I go 65mph with my travel trailer I'm thrilled to get 9mpg! Dropping to 55-60 does improve the mileage a lot, which tells you you're fighting wind resistance. The engine and tranny don't really care at all, usually in 7/8 gear under 2500rpm just humming along, grades don't matter even with almost 6k lbs.This is almost exactly what I have seen.
