MPG on your ride.

Driving around Columbus - 33-34 on 87 octane

Driving home and back to Columbus (mostly 2 lane highways) - 35-36 on 87 octane

 

I'm suprised at how well it does around Columbus, but that is mostly on the highways with the cruise set at 70.

2004 F-150 heritage model (97-03 body style) 4.2L v6 5sp: I just got 19.7mpg mixed driving. I can get 21mpg on the freeway out of it if I stay under 70mph. 16-17mpg around town if I drive like an old fart. Towed my nova (4000lbs+ w/tow dolly) and got 18mpg

 

1997 Cougar 4.6L: 26mpg on the freeway drving 75+mph in Indiana.

Avalanche: usually 15 with the driving I do around town, and I don't have the lightest foot. I've gotten 18.5 on a highway trip before. With all the towing I've been doing lately, I'm not sure, but less than 15. :(

 

Moostang: usually around 20.

 

Firebird when it was running: if I stayed out of the gas, which was rare, it would do around 20....pathetic that it was making ~twice the HP as the Moostang N/A, yet could still match its mileage. :rolleyes:
