From a Badlands on 33's

Ford guy said it was running 75 mph on hwy - they drove 4 hours to get there.

I'll take that - it's better than what I was expecting.

could you confirm if those were on low rolling resistance tires such as the Prius uses?

Squatched?

Based on trip time that's averaging ~30mph. I'd imagine a lot of highway use mixed with a lot of idling.

About what my 2018 f150 4x4 s crew gets. 3.5tt

Not necessarily. The trip time continues even when the vehicle is off. (At least that is how it works on my Focus.) It could be a highway trip of 346 miles followed by a number of hours parked so it could be 100% highway miles.

Somewhere between 12-24 mpg is what I am expecting. Pretty sure that 12 hrs in the car and 347 miles isn't a great statistical data set without the additional features added but it does give us a solid idea so THANK YOU!!!!

I'm pretty sure that the trip time on my 2015 Edge is only the time the engine, or at least when the car is in "accessory mode."

I'm not sure how useful it would be if it just continually counted since the last time you field up, but then again, I'm sure someone would want to know that info.

That’s it? I’m cancelling my order.

I’ll say again. Anyone who expected better than a combined MPG of 17 is probably going to be disappointed

 

[BlazinGTO]

Anyone else ever have a car that switched to gallons per hour for fuel consumption after idling for a short while? Mine used around .89 gal per hour idling. Id be curious what different engines get. This was a 5.7 v8.

The car did count that towards my overall mpg though.

This could be from a (gulp!) Sport. Ewwwwww!
