Morning commute gas mileage

[iwantabasebronco]

In case anyones interested, or looking for more data points…

Here’s my morning commute on a 25F day with my v6 base 4dr on 285’s at ~35psi:

my rig is at 1300 miles and this drive is mostly 55mph highway (~9 miles highway). Rolling hills, but nothing very steep up or down… turbo stays off for most of the drive.

I'm jealous. My commute is 4 miles of city. Sitting at 15.9 but I've been inching it up, it was at 15.5 a couple weeks ago. No highway miles since.

You shouldn't be jealous, you burn less gas than OP.

Should go up after a few thousand miles of wear…

You're not wrong.

I get 20.2 mpg’s on 37’s but I drive in eco Mode. Still pretty good.

45-55 the v6 sips, go much above 60 and it dips

What is sad is that my 2015 jkur 3.6L got 19.n mpg (actual) on a road trip i just took with cruise set at 70mph for most of the freeway time.

55 mph drives , due to wind and Bronco blocky design, and keeping your foot out of the turbo will most likely be the optimum mpg situation; regardless of whether you have the 2.3 or the 2.7.

I often times take the less traveled and slightly slow speed roads just because it’s more relaxing and the mpg is a couple pts better!

Can’t wait to see what I get! Whenever she gets built.

I have an ‘18 F150 5.0L and I get 15.8. I drive 60 miles to work and 60 home each day. Lol. Florida highways at 70-80 MPH.

I actually found a good solution to the gas issue. It is easy to hide the mileage gauge.

Dunno. I’ve never checked it. On any of cars.
