First Fuel Economy Numbers Seen on Window Sticker = 16.9 MPG (converted) for Sasquatch Badlands 4-Door Bronco 2.7L

[Mustang Mike]

If we get around 20 MPG I’ll be happy and really that’s what I was expecting based on similar V6 (wrangler) and the 2.7L EcoBoost powertrain in other ford vehicles?

So the 16.9 is around 20, or you're disappointed?

He is in Canada, so Imperial gallons, so... He is not disappointed.

It starts around 54k, and who the hell pays sticker for a full-size pickup? Tremor can be had for a scratch under 50k, at least 6 months ago when I was close to pulling the trigger I could.

I did since I got one of the first ones built when they came out. You definitely aren't getting one under 50k in the current market

At the Bridgeport Texas event I went to on Saturday here is what the rep told me.

One of the reps watched the MPG monitor while driving a 2.7 V-6 for a couple of hours at 55 to 60mph, he was getting 23mpg. When he kicked it up to 70 to 80mph for a couple of hours it dropped down to 18mpg, the aerodynamic brick in action.

He told me the official EPA mileage mpg numbers will be released in 3 -4 weeks.

Did he indicate what model he was driving? SAS, NON-SAS, BL, BD, etc.?

Thank you, so 2.7 and SAS? And what trim/model?

Canada I believe uses the imperial gallon... Which is more I believe... 4.54L per gallon.

You are correct sir. We do. And Quebec isn’t really Canadian; they’re kinda the red headed step child we’re forced to tolerate for reasons completely unknown to us Westerners.

that's 20 in Imperial gallons, US gallons is 17

 

[Lakelife36]

And that could be but you’re the first person on here comparing a Bronco to an F250 with Tremor package. That’s an apple to a huge orange.

Hahahahaha I see you haven't visited the towing forum...

Got it. The Raptor is 15 / 18 / 16 (city / highway / combined). If this is 17 combined, you could estimate 16 city / 19 highway / 17 combined.

This is dead on with my estimate. Close to, but not hitting 20 on the highway, and maybe only 1 or 2 mpg better than the raptor in the city, with a combined around 17.

Jeeez, if that's close to the Raptor then i wonder what the Hog will get for MPG

 

[2Jeeps&PatriotX1]

That seems likely. I drive "normal", mixed of highway and city and get just under 20MPG long term average in my F150 2.7 10sp. That is with 32" road biased tires, 3.55 gears and all the f150 mpg tricks employed. It does great on the highway 70MPH and under and can get 24 at 60MPH. 80MPH=19 on the highway. Bronco will likely do slightly worse, although now that we know we get the completely tepid, super light duty 10R60 trans, maybe it will get 30MPG?

In my f150, 3.5, 10speed, supercrew, 5700lb curb weight, 6” lift, 35” MT tires, 6k elevation, I get 18.1mpg highway (ave speed 75-80mph) , 17.2mixed. I would hope a 2.7 bronco would get that if not better.

Probably around what my jeep gets after all its mods. I dont pay attention anymore because its depressing but Id venture to say it gets 11-l2mpg tops.

Canada is a metric country, so we use the metric gallon. 4 litres.

Only for milk

 

[BearWithMe]

Why is it all in French, how is a Badlands with a soft top $75k? Something about this Mohoney sticker looks more like bologna to me

EDIT: Oh Canada
